To 142.177.82.89 - I don't think the Aussie programme was called
Castaways, it may have been renamed that for US audiences though. Anyway I think that was a remake of a Nnorwegian program. Also Big Brother emerged at about the same time (and has been FAR more popular in the rest of the world than the

I just find it a bit redundant that there be a list of game shows on the main page (not to mention wildly incomplete and cumbersome) when there exists a category for the same. I think that it should at least be moved onto its own list page.
