Pictionary

Our family LOVES Pictionary, playing after Sunday & holiday dinners. When the kids found it on TV, they recorded it rather than watching live bcoz Jerry O'Connell disturbs them so much, they FF thru his antics. We asked specifically what disturbed them. They said watch. Our family listed so many things, we fear they won't fit. #1 is his dancing, #2 his invasive touchyfeely practice with contestants, especially when they're trying to draw, #3 his idiotic attempts at humor, #4 his leading/misleading comments like GREAT JOB,PERFECT or IT'S ALL THERE b4 a single line is drawn. Producers need to pay attention to guests' & contestants' reactions, the looks exchanged & efforts to be polite.

Call me shocked!!

I only watched because I saw Melissa Peterman and Jaleel White sitting there!! They are always fun!

I have notice Jerry McConnell is cute, and there are plenty of cute guys out there!

Was I in for a surprise!? He is the host with the most! I never knew he had moves like that!

And he was so warm and funny! New respect for Jerry McConnell! I think he would really make Jeopardy fun again, which it hasn't been in a couple of decades! I look at old ones and Alex was actually nice and friendly to people. Eventually he got really serious! And it sucked, a lot! Now the male host is boring and the female one seems sweet and trying. Jerry is pro though!

I don't know that I will be able to watch the game show in the middle of the day. I would start watching Jeopardy again with McConnell hosting if he was free to bring his fun personality!

Prizes are worse than Lets Make a Deal, another painful show to watch. The opposing teams gets zero. And everyone has phony enthusiasm for the prizes.

Every action and word spoken falls flat. Nothing is funny.

Have no idea what the "drawing card" is for people to watch.

Jerry O'Connell, forgive the personal critique , needs professional hair care and a clothing assistant. He looks creepy and shabby.

I think it is time to pull the plug on this show.

Our local network, WUTR, offered Family Feud at 3pm for at least 2-3 yrs. Idiotic questions but done in fun, with well dressed Steve Harvey. Family Feud was moved to 4 pm and Pictionary at 3.

Took 2 looks at Pictionary.

Dismal.

I thought long about the rating for Pictionary and tried to be kind. This show is painful to watch and is immature thanks to Jerry O'Connell's silliness. He is just too goofy and his little dancing is embarrassing. Big deal is made about the "celebrities" (forgotten faces) and their antics are just as bad. Win Loose or Draw from the 80s was good. This show is beyond terrible; nothing but immature foolishness.

This is a shame. The format could have been presented in a much more enjoyable mature manner making it entertaining. As it stands it has no redeeming features. Time to put this one to rest.

As a lover of game shows, I consider this the worst game show on TV. It is not because of host Jerry O'Connell's silly dances. Neither is it due to its low-budget approach to production and prizes.

The big problem is that O'Connell violates a basic tenet of all competition shows: he influences play. Maybe you have noticed that he often makes comments, like "this is a tough one". As contestants draw the clues, he frequently says "it's all there" or "you did a good job"-all of which can be clues to the guessers. Or if someone uses a specific color, he might indicate that it's a wise choice. These might seem like subtle or meaningless comments, but you would never hear Alex Trebek comment that a final jeopardy clue was obscure. Pat Sajak would never say that someone made a good choice in guessing a particular letter.

Frankly, I am surprised that they allow him to get away with his imprudent remarks. Avid game players are scrupulous about fairness, and the producers and broadcasters who are responsible for content must be well aware of the line that separates fair play from behaviors that can lead to major fines.
