In the 1950s, the big money shows were generally referred to as quiz shows. Unfortunately for the genre, the quiz show scandals occurred, which nearly destroyed the entire genre. The term "game show" is more common in the US today, and one reason is that producers did not want to connect new shows to the rigged shows of the 1950s. Further, shows using quiz questions basically disappeared until the premiere of Jeopardy! in 1964, which, owing to the scandals, provided the contestants with all the answers but made them come up with the questions.Whether "game show" or "quiz show" is used depends on the country. However, quiz shows carry the connotation of answering questions, while there are many game shows that do not involve trivia at all (for example, The Dating Game and Match Game).
First you must decide just what is a TV game show, then how broad of TV viewers do you use to make a count of shows for example worldwide, broadcast, cable, closed circuit. Are sporting events also game shows and where is the line drawn because some game shows are also sporting events. Then how many times do you count Wheel of Fortune, it is clearly a different show when they have a different Host and hostess and speak a different language. Do you count pilots that aired to only a limited viewing audience. There have been thousands of different shows over the years and the number would be out of date soon after it was determined, if not while someone was trying to accurately calculate your answer. I'm not sure a person could accurately decide how many a network had in the current lineup without someone claiming a show is or isn't a game show. Then since different people are on shows with the same title a point could be made that each episode is really a different game show. Or at least each season in some reality based game shows.
The Game show network shows previous episodes of the wheel of fortune show from earlier in the shows history that were not erased as were most of the early daytime shows. They never show the current program year's episodes
I think it was cute kids, or, child's play
Several tv networks produce game shows in the US. There is now a network completely dedicated to game shows. It is called the Game Show network, which is very popular.
Most game shows will only take contestants who are 18 years of age or older, although some game shows have special weeks with younger contestants. Some other game shows cast contestants younger than 18 (generally, these are kids' game shows).

The reason maybe, the network does not televised their shows beyond Us territories. Some you can but there may be copyright restrictions and other legal problems that prevent some shows being transmitted
