Match Game

I think the questions are being written by AI. Or the writers are just very unfunny.

It has potential to be good but the questions are just terrible.

I think they also really need to follow the chair configuration of the 70s version closer to have any real chance. Not necessarily by gender but more on personality compared to the OGs.

I will say that I got addicted to this in the summer of the year 2016 and can not wait to see more no it's not always appropriate for children but that is the whole point of the late time it's super fun and hilarious loved Tyson and some of the others not so much of a fan of Rosie odonald but besides that I loved it couldn't quite laughing at some points of the show just please get Rosie the hell off of the show and we should have a great time and a few good laughs and regards to alec Baldwin he was hilarious and just made me want more of him and his style of things such a joy to enjoy and language at a very funny bunch of people just having a good time

I saw some of the reviews on IMDb for the new Match Game on ABC and they were very negative, which shocked me. For the first time since the 70s/80s era one went off the air, it feels like they finally got it right. I love that they kept the old theme song, I like that the set, while modernized, is very similar to the 70s era set. The panel I thought was pretty strong, with Rosie O'Donnell and Ian Michael Black in particular looking like potential regulars. Alec Baldwin was fine as host, not terrific, definitely not Gene Rayburn, but he did a good job all things considered. There were certain moments of awkwardness and creepiness, but not too bad. I even loved the skinny microphone! I thought the questions were written with some provocative nature, but not over the top sleaze (Steve Harvey Family Feud, I'm looking at you). Sure, the Costco one was a bit much, but compare this to the failed late 90s remake of Match Game and this one is more tame and not as difficult to watch. The celebration after the audience match seemed a bit excessive and over the top. That should only happen after a successful Super Match. Overall, I thought this remake was pretty well done. Not perfect, but much better than some of the reviewers think.

I was excited to see my favorite childhood game show making a return. I have great memories watching with my Grandma, Rayburn, Brett, Dawson, Charles Nelson, and others. Too many questions now have sexual references. The show can be funny and entertaining without this. If ABC is trying to appeal to us "boomers", they should try to make the show similar to what made it good in the 60s and 70s.

With Match Game having 4 different versions in the last 4 decades, ABC brings back the star-studded, big money and hilarious game show in a whole new era!

The show first began with Alec Baldwin, showcasing his sarcastic and witty humor and great rapport with the celebrity panelists. Then, after the show went on a hiatus for a few years, it returned to the airwaves with a new host that has a hosting style that's similar to the late Gene Rayburn's, but adding his own sense of humor too. That man was the hilarious Martin Short, who is pretty decent as well, although the panelist selection still needs work, it still is a fun watch.

So, enjoy the all-new star-studded Match Game on ABC!
