Throughout the history of human competition, people have gone to great lengths for the glory and prestige of victory. GSN, the network for games, tells stories of individuals' often-unbelievable attempts to win in a signature weekly hour-long documentary series, ANYTHING TO WIN. The topic for Tuesday, January 24 is Arnold Schwarzenegger.  From his early days in post-war Austria, Arnold Schwarzenegger has depended on his larger-than-life personality to get what he wants. His list of achievements includes one of the highest titles in bodybuilding, box office king in the United States' feature film industry, wealth and, more recently, a place among America's political power elite. What many do not know is that his success stems from tremendous mental conviction and an ambitious, documented plan he made to be successful in bodybuilding, the entertainment industry and, eventually, in politics. His life is a reflection of his determination not to deviate from his plan and this documentary chronicles Schwarzenegger's road from Austria to America and also considers the next step of his master plan. ANYTHING TO WIN is to feature 13 episodes or documentaries, produced by Creative Differences and Asylum Entertainment. Erik Nelson, Dave Harding and Frank Sinton serve as executive producers. Nelson and Harding, the team behind BIG BUCKS: THE PRESS YOUR LUCK SCANDAL, GSN's first and highly successful documentary special, produced more than 400 hours of programming for 12 different networks. Recently, Nelson also produced his first theatrical documentary: Werner Herzog's critically acclaimed "Grizzly Man." Asylum Entertainment, founded in 2000, created the 10-time Emmy nominated series "Beyond the Glory" and the Emmy nominated series "Fearless." GSN, the Network for Games, is the U.S. television network dedicated to game-related programming. The network features game shows, reality series, documentaries and casino games. As the industry leader in interactivity, GSN has allowed viewers to play-along with on-air programming via their computers and GSN.com since 2002. Reaching more than 57 million Nielsen homes, GSN is distributed in the U.S. through all major cable systems and satellite providers. The network is jointly owned by Sony Pictures Entertainment and Liberty Media Corporation. I, for one, will be watching Tuesday, January 24, 9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT to see Arnold Schwarzenegger show how to do ANYTHING TO WIN.
