GSN Brings Interactive Casino TV to Mobile Phones

MediaPost is reporting that GSN, an interactive network, will be joining forces with U.K. production company Two Way TV in order to let U.S. viewers play along with game shows on their mobile phones.

According to the report, viewers can take part in the net’s prime-time casino programming with “game texting,” and later, play along with GSN’s game and reality shows.

Expect to see the first uses of the technology this summer, when viewers will be able to interact with “High Stakes Poker” and “World Series of Blackjack” using their cellphones.
