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
Despite all of the less intelligent people who posted one star reviews this show was entertaining when Alec Baldwin was hosting. Martin is great at what he does, but he just cannot hold a candle.
It has completely lost its cadence. Even with Alec's bad luck in the last few years how is that not going to help his self deprecating ways on the show?

The original was lots of fun, with mostly clever jokes steering occasionally into naughty territory.
This version is just loud, obnoxious, and crude. Sad, because I was looking forward to a Match Game revival. Until I saw the show, I thought maybe Baldwin could pull it off.
He can't.
The celebrities don't really seem to be trying to find answers that will match the contestants. If they can't even get into the spirit of the game, why bother?
Just avoid this mess.

Martin Short did his best with what he was given, but the questions were awful and made no sense. Nothing like the spirit of the old show that always had at one or two obvious answers. Half the celebs had low energy, and even Martin didn't really ask them anything just made little jokes at their expense. I guess that was his only fault to me. The old format would at least mention what show or project they were working on as a way to introduce them to the audience. The contestants also were a little lackluster as well, but with these questions, could you blame the?. I like Martin Short, but will always miss Alec Baldwin and how he gave new life to an old show. Hoping this version perks up and gets new writers.
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.
