Impossible Mission

More retro videogames - the Game Show Network (or, should I say, GSN) will be showing Video Game Invasion, a two hour special on the history of videogaming. It will premiere this Sunday night.
The new GSN logo, by the way, is an utterly generic misfire. Take a look ---

Didn't this already happen with AMC? Whimsy, fun and distinctiveness replaced with bland austerity. I like simple logos, but this example doesn't say anything about the network or what it represents. At least there's still room for interesting logos in cableland - like Spike TV's, which ironically looks like it belongs on a feminine hygiene product.
