The $100,000 Pyramid

I'v been watching since Dick Clark was the host. I love the celebrities on the show, the comedy and Michael is a very good host. I would like to be on the show however, I sometimes get nervous and cannot respond quickly even though I know the answer. I have watched two episodes that have had women on from the real houseguest wives, I do not know what State etc they were from. I was disappointed in the episodes, I felt bad for the contestants because these women did not do a sufficient job. The scores were very low and they did not seem to have a large knowledge base, outside of their own world. I believe my 7 year old grandson could have done better. I understand people can have off days, but two different programs, different times and different women. Both episodes were poor, not entertaining. I wish the show would not use the real house wives for the guest stars.

With the Pyramid now 4 decades old, ABC decided to bring it back in a new era, with a new set, a new host, and bigger money at stake!

The object of Pyramid is simple. You have a contestant and a celebrity partner who guesses words from a specific category, and whoever has the most points goes on to the Winners Circle for a chance at $10,000, and if that same contestant wins, they'll go for $100,000!

The host of the new $100,000 Pyramid is Michael Strahan, known for hosting Good Morning America, and he has decent chemistry with the celebrity guests and is able to keep the game moving when necessary.

So if you're a fan of Pyramid, then check out this version of Pyramid.

I've been watching reruns of this show for the past couple of weeks, I think mostly from over five years ago, so I hopefully they've learned and it's better now. But, there have been numerous really bad choices for the celebrities. It's painful to watch. I won't mention any names, but some of these guys seem to not have any idea how to play. I get that they want a good mix of types of celebrities, but some people just aren't meant to be on a game show. Why would they have them on? Shouldn't they know how to play the game before being accepted to help contestants win? It's not fair because the contestants give excellent clues, but some of the celebrities JUST DON'T GET IT! I'd be mad! Just saying.

Otherwise, I'm really enjoying this version with Michael Strahan. I've watched this show since I was a kid and always enjoyed it. Dick Clark, Donny Osmond, and Michael Strahan have all been great hosts. I hope they keep getting intelligent celebrities on who know how to play!

I'm older so I remember how fun, smart and challenging this show was back when. Sometimes watching the supposed celebrities on the show makes me ask, have we really become this stupid? There are some really smart and fun celebs but they are few and far between. Most of the reality show or media "celebs" are plain stupid. They are so self involved they can't get the simplest clues. I feel sorry for the contestants. It's painful and irritating to watch them. Also although it makes the winner's circle game much easier I like the relaxed rules fior what is an acceptable answer. Strahan is good and I'd like to continue to watch but please get better and smarter celebs on. I beg of you!

When he was first selected as a co-host with Kelly Ripa, I was pretty disappointed because I thought others would have been much better. Then, I watched him and he was great.

He is absolutely the perfect person as host of this program. He is witty and really gets into the game as well.

I like some of the guests especially Leslie Jones. I love her on SNL but I watched her help someone win $100,000 and she was so overwhelmed and happy that she was a part of it. Most of the celebrities are huggers especially after helping someone win either 50G or 100G. But watching a celebrity recoil away from a hug didn't make it for me. But I understand everyone is different.

I loved seeing Rita Moreno on and she was great.
