spare room. (not me,the pictures HAAA!)

Sallyann, I hope you do try it. Start out with something small like a bookmark or something to see how it works.
Frances, Soapyscraps is into scrapbooking. I'm sure she would give you some ideas if you need any. I'll be at work during GL's time slot, but I will probably be recording AMC and watching it at night instead of GL. I stopped recording/watching GL for a time, but started back when Phillip came back on. I really don't have time to watch two shows so I slacked off on AMC and have just been reading the updates.

I can't believe they would put a game show in it's place, i will probably just watch shows on my DVR, and continue playing Second Life, if i ever get
rich in second life maybe i will build my own little Springfield for Guiding light fans, lol. i know i haven't commented much on the cancellation or at all
and i got behind on my shows. The cancellation makes me really sad it is 20 years or so i been watching this show and just because i needed something to watch
after school. But it is all to be expected with the show going downhill and the hail mary new camera techniques and the bad sound and Grady. It is kind of to
be expected but now way in heck will i watch a stupid game show!!!!!

So, it is official..Let's Make a Deal with Wayne Brady. No WAY will I watch that. Besides the whole cancellation thing, I don't even like Wayne Brady.
I guess, though, that even he isn't as bad as Drew Carey. LOL
Why in the world do they want a game show on. I thought that ship had sailed. When will they ever realize that people like what they like and don't need anything new. Cable has taken over and they barely put anything on regular TV that people want to watch, yet they are still paying people these huge a@@ salaries and wonder why network tv is going downhill. Expensive cr@p is still cr@p. LOL

Apparently, game shows and reality shows are very cheap to produce and some people seem to like them. One of these days, the public will have their fill of
these types of shows and something else will take it's place. When you consider unions, salaries and all the stuff that goes with hiring actors, etc. to
produce a regular show, the costs are just outlandish. As long as the people will watch, why go this route when a game show will do. Hopefully people will
stop watching one of these days and we will get better tv.

Hi, two comments, one I emailed CBS to tell them I would not be watching any game show replacement after watching Guiding Light for 25 years. The dedication of
our watching for so many years apparently means nothing to them. The newspaper report quoted the programming chief as saying that the change represents a very
tough transition for the network. It is my belief that once one soap is removed easily, others will be removed also. I am writing CBS to tell them I have
replaced their shows with the shows of other networks and will watch little or no CBS after Guiding Light goes. Also to Tania, our Conn. programming also
showed a rerun of price is right instead of the pre-empted Guiding Light show.

I went to Wayne Brady's face book page and posted what I thought of the game show screwing over GL! I look at it this way Dark Shadows is on NetFlix and
You get 6 0r 8 epps on a disc. Rather watch a soap from 1965 than game show drivel. CBS can KMA!

Wayne Brady is not to blame for CBS canceling GL. I don't think it is fair to him or the producers of this new game show to call them names or rant about
their show. CBS would have replaced GL with something, if not that then something else. Wayne Brady is doing a job, nothing more. He did not nor did his new
show "screw over" GL. CBS made a decision based on money. One I do not agree with, but they are a business and are acting as such. Perhaps if the
producers and writers had done a better job of keeping GL the show it once was, it wouldn't have lost so many viewers. JMHO
BTW I have always thought "Let's make a deal" was an idiotic show but there are a lot of idiotic reality shows on these days IMO.

Of all the game shows in all the world, Lets make a deal is the one I will never watch. First nine in the morning is tooo early to sit and watch game shows.
Tape one, NO way
LMAD makes the contestants look like complete fools.They have won something nice,and trade for the cow behind the door.I always laughed at that and said good greedy gus. You got nothing.They dressed like fools and made complete fools of themselves. I never miss Jeopardy, love the show. Some of millionaire is fine. When the questions are hard. I like some game shows, Price is right I avoid, .Nothing to do with drew, just don't care for how the contestants act. I will not watch whatever they replace my show with,LMAD makes it very easy to stay with that. CBS didn't put on the show today. Those two idiots who went into a communist country, played the fool, I didn't know,???? came back and I had to keep flipping channels to see when the light came on. You should know if you are a so called reporter,you don't go near north Korea.Were we suppose to feel sorry for them? sorry I didn't. Now they even made me miss one of the few shows left. They did put on the last five minutes, with commercials.

I made several mistakes when I worked, but luckily not on this scale. If reporters did not put their safety on the line, we would never know the truth about
other countries and how they treat their people. I for one am thankful they are home safely.

I am glad they are home safely, but do not feel that my regular programming should have been interrupted yet again for something that could have waited until
the evening news.
