Advantages: Great selection of classics

Disadvantages: None

They just don't make quiz shows like they use to, with the surge in reality television, the traditional game shows we all loved to watch have most definetly declined.

Challenge TV available on satellite & cable however allows you to relive the best of the gameshow era by reshowing these on the 24 hours entertainment channel. Although the channel does show mostly old gameshows from the past, there are a few original shows on it too. These include imports from the far east such as Takish's Castle & Ninja Warrier, as well as new versions of classic shows such as Bullseye.

However the best thing about this channel is definetly its selection of classics from The Prize Is Right, Supermarket Sweep & The Crystal Maze to Wipeout, Strike It Rich & 321. Recently they also started showing the classic Fun House, which brought all the memories back from my childhood.

They rotate what they show quite often and introduce new classic shows to their lineup regularly, keeping it fresh & non-repetitive.

If there's not anything good on the other channels, Challenge and it's timeshift channel Challenge+1 will always have something entertaining on, so sit back & enjoy the gameshow goodness.

Summary: This channel is essential viewing!
