I'm not one of those people who trash anything before it begins, I often give it a chance before I judge it good or bad. I'm happy that producers love the site, I just wish they would comment from time to time. I get what you’re saying, Martin.

But, I'll give it a chance. However, unless I am totally wrong, I don't think the "in the butt" comment ever aired until the blooper episodes a few years ago (or whenever it was). So, even then, the humor was really risque. I just hope they don't up the ante. I’m still nervous about Carnie Wilson…even more so after seeing that video of her interview.

I am a huge game show fan (mainly of the G-T 70's and 80's stuff), and as a contestant on the show (I can't share anything until it airs), the show keeps to the Eubanks versions, minus one couple, and a change in hosts. Time constraints obviously play a big role, b/c there is a bonus round which was not on the older versions of the show. The funny thing is, I wasn't a fan of the Barris games back in the day, but playing the game was a blast. The blog world is funny, everyone is always gloom and doom/cynical, how about thinking positive. Remember, this isn't Fremantle. How about we be thankful that GSN is trying to cater to the older game show fan, and the more contemporary fan. Not everything is going to be Match Game (Rabyburn), TPIR (Barker), Family Feud (Dawson), or even the old B&W shows. While I agree that shows like Chain Reaction and Temptation were poor/weaker attempts at revivals, give the show a chance first. If you don't like it, then trash into it all you want, but we are over a month from this thing airing! Unless you've seen it live, I think reserving judgment is probably the fair thing to do. OK, enough of me already! I would agree w/ everything said.
