It shows absolutely no sign of ever stopping for CBS. They change hosts every couple of decades, though. Which is a little more generous then the NBC dynamic duo, Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune, whose hosts are near immortals...or something. (Out of curiosity, I'm Googling images. Pat has aged gracefully. Vanna is...a barbie doll. I mean, she ages like fine wine. Or refined plastic surgery skills. I mean, she doesn't look 61. Heck. She kind of doesn't look 31, even.)
Ooooo ok, well we have changed here.
We have new game shows "Tipping Point" based on the coin pusher arcade game and "!mpossible" Answer a question with 3 answers, one right, one wrong and one impossible. Get the right answer you get a point (first to 5 goes through to round 2) get the answer wrong and you get 0 points but get the impossible answer and your out of the game completely.

While I am a little out of the loop as I practically gave up on TV, last 'new' American game show I knew of was that 'Deal or No Deal'...whose basis concept is so simple, it makes for a far greater arcade machine then it does an hour long televised show. In it, player chooses a number between 1 and 26. Tension builds as player widdles down the other numbers in hopes of having chosen the biggest cash prize number. Price is Right was doing that game, first. Believe it took them about 3 minutes or less to complete.
I'm also aware that CBS revived the Let's Make a Deal, where the audience dresses up in whacky outfits and an array of mini games are played. That one is an on-again/off-again classic since the 60's.
I'm aware of the Tipping Point arcade. But, a whole show around it??? Why?????

Well I can tell you we also had Deal or No Deal here too with a top prize of £250,000 (Just over US$325,000) the show stopped broadcasting 2 years ago.
Tipping Point is an intresting game as there are prize counters too and the 2x counter, get that in the final round and you get £20,000.
TBH though British gameshows don't have massive cash prizes anymore £10,000 is about the maximum you can get and even then its a gamble on that show (tipping point) other shows though are just pathetic amounts like Pointless (A show where the team with the lowest amount of points win, even then you have to get a perfect answer.) The prize money has only been about £1,000, people who make it to the final of Pointless get a trophy, they are soo desperate for cash these days that they're selling these "Pointless" gameshow trophies on ebay and fetching £9,000.
(Sorry if I'm going off topic) We get 4 CBS channels here
CBS Drama with programmes like ER, Dynasty and The Love Boat.
CBS Reality featuring Judge Judy and Bondi Rescue
CBS Action for all your NCIS and CSI needs
and finally Horror for horror films and Original Star Trek episodes.

At least, it sounds like both of our countries have some rather tame game shows. After all, I used to be in an area where a channel from Mexico was strong enough. On it was this one game show where players roamed around a massive stage that was set up like a game board. A digital die controlled which space they landed on, next. Games could be trivial based. But, were more often physical challenges. One that really stood out was a physical dental challenge where the player had to endure getting a real tooth pulled from their mouth. I've heard that Japan game shows get even weirder then that, though. Personally, I'll stick to spinning a big wheel and trying to figure out a phrase, one letter choice at a time.
I've migrated to that pay CBS on-line service. It's kind of weak and doesn't host most of what you listed. But, has just enough nostalgia factor for me to have stuck with it for a few months. Funny thing is, pretty much what I'm watching was never actually aired by that broadcaster.

I personally like Takeshi's Castle (Japanese Gameshow) very silly but also highly physical, "Skipping Stones" is running over stepping stones over water, half solid the other half just floating on the surface. Choose the wrong one and you're going for a swim. Though "Dino Ride" is my favourite (You can find my OC riding it in my gallery), riding a mechanical bull (In the shape of a dinosaur) to hit a pink bat, if it falls from its position your through to the next round.
In regards to CBS-UK (Also in partnership with CBS Europa) its actually free to view all their channels. I pay monthly for a digital service (sadly most are American OTT programmes on channels like "Lifetime" and "TLC") as all our analogue transmitters were switched off in 2012.

Strange fact that I heard a very long time ago. The deactivation of analog transmission was a planned thing. Like from the days of black & white television, right along with setting aside lines of resolution for future applications. The people whom invented television had incredible vision...even though they weren't quite sure just what would replace analog broadcasts with or what the blank lines of resolution would contain. (Which would become Closed Caption information, time pulse...and I'm thinking Sync was in there, too.) It would make sense that I heard about the coming of the switch over from my TV tech days in high school. So...maybe during the '90s? They didn't stick to the plan, precisely. If memory serves, the planned switch to digital was suppose to be closer to 2010 or 2008 or somewhere in that time frame.
I fondly look back on having been an audience member. Oh, is that studio a thousand times louder then the show ever lets on. But, another part of what is barely revealed is just how much more show there actually is during the commercial breaks. Truly a life time goal. (Perhaps the oddest bit was how some random lady in front of me had antlers on...despite the number one rule being...in capitals and bold font...'NO COSTUMING'. Had I the foggiest about that exception...)
