Marking a broadcast breakthrough for the video shopping phenomenon, Home Shopping Network Inc. said it will start airing in June a half-hour program on all four television stations owned and operated by CBS. The program, called “The Home Shopping Game Show,” will be broadcast five times a week on CBS stations in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago and Philadelphia. It will combine a game show offering prizes to contestants with the video shopping concept of selling discount merchandise to viewers. Previously, Home Shopping had aired its shows only on cable television and independent TV stations it acquired.
