The list of nominees for the GSN Game Show Awards is fairly lengthy, but there are many shows, hosts, contestants, and memorable moments that appear to be missing from the list. Who (or what) do you think is the most glaring omission, and what category would you add your nomination to?

Game Show Awards Nominations

I Survived a Japanese Game Show should have been nominated for an award on GSN, and Rome Kanda should be nominated as best show host.

Richard Dawson

Why was Richard Dawson not nominated for best game show host? They showed an interview with him about Mark Goodson, but I really think he should have been nominated or at least recognized.

Obvious Omissions

I'm stunned at some they left out. 1 VS 100 coming, and to promote it they don't want to put it anywhere? Or like the $1M WOF winner which was arguably the best win of this season. Or the exact showcase bid on Price is Right. I mean these were well publicized well known wins. I'm stunned a network for game shows left them off.

Chuck Baris and Peter Tomarken

There should be some classic game show hosts in there, or even a category just for them. I would nominate Peter Tomarken and Chuck Barris. Maybe Bob Eubanks too.
