People can say what they want but I like it

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

Disappointing

Below average junior high school boys must be writing the ridiculous questions on this modern lowbrow version of Matchgame. It's painful to watch Alec Baldwin, through no fault of his own, struggling to explain the stupid questions to the guest celebrities. I'll take reruns of the classic version any day over this tripe.

Good Revival of the 70s Classic

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.

Terrible

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.

This ain't exactly your grandma's Match Game and that's a good thing!

It's a contemporary version of Match Game, and it's fantastic! It keeps all the marvelous kitsch of the 70s including the format, catchy theme song, and loud set, while updating the tawdriness for the new millennium where the word bosom is now too stuffy sounding for a Disney show.

The panel is more multicultural with more people of color and people that are openly gay. If you prefer a more old Hollywood, monolithic panel with stale canned jokes, then this isn't the panel for you. If you like your gayness to be more closeted, then this ain't the show for you because they put it out there openly. That's what young people want. If answers containing the word bosom or boobs is the most tawdry that you can stand, then please turn off this show because it's TV 14 late night material. And if you like your objectification only directed toward women, don't watch because they now direct it toward men too.

Alec Baldwin is wonderful. He has such ease with the contestants that he is able to rightfully make fun of their ridiculous answers while still making them smile and laugh at themselves. His take downs on panelists' bad answers are epic. He matches it with his own self-deprication so that it's clear that everyone is in on the joke.

For those complaining about the political aspect, please stop with your selective amnesia. The old Match Game routinely went after political figures like Nixon, Ford and Carter. I recall a running joke about Carter's teeth and his younger brother. The idea that Trump is above reproach is LAUGHABLE. Trump called Rosie a disgusting pig, so blame him for any rightfully deserved vitriol. Quite frankly, she showed restraint as did the rest of the panel considering the garbage he's spewed.

All in all, a great reboot of a classic TV show best enjoyed with a glass of Chardonnay.

Great Host but...

Anthony was sooo annoying. Some celebrities I had no idea who they are like the zimbi girl next to Anthony. Must be an older women from GEN X. Selena did amazing, Kevin is awesome and cara needs a little work. I think some of the contestants never saw the old one. I used to watch it with my grand parents.

similar in appearance as the classic show, but lacks the character

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.

Hilarious, witty, and a lot of fun

First, take other ratings with a grain of salt because many people are simply offended that Alec Baldwin, an actor, hosts this and portrays a satirical Donald Trump on another show (because, you know, he's an actor....).

Second, it comes on at 10 for a reason--it's not for the kids to watch.

But finally, this show is incredibly funny. The guests are not has-beens as petty people have said. They have some of the best guests I've seen who provide hilarious commentary to the show. Alec Baldwin shows off his fantastic wit brilliantly in this fun game show. The banter between him and the celebrity guests actually have my sides hurting from laughter each time I watch, and I'm not someone who laughs at just anything. The fact that the banter isn't scripted makes it impressive, to me, that these celebs can be this funny with such ease. Bravo for a terrific show

Loved The Original

The very first episode of the new Match Game 2016 and the panelists are lackluster and/or marginally recognizable as famous.

Rosie O'Donnell was unable to keep her political views to herself and turned entertainment into soap boxing. Who gives a damn what she thinks about any of the presidential candidates? That's not what this show is supposedly about. She had her chance to whine on The View. Now, she's trying to torpedo another show with her vitriol.

I loved the original Match Game from the Seventies. This isn't on par.

I thought Alec Baldwin was pretty good, but even so, he just makes me realize how much fun Gene Rayburn really was, back in the day.

I won't be tuning in to future broadcasts.

Garbage, a sign of the times.

One of the worst piles of manure on TV. Typical of today's remakes and hosted by a horrible, unfunny, classless loser. A panel of no-names making unfunny, rude, vulgar, political and just low-brow jokes. This follows basically all other TV game show remakes of the modern era. A truly sad commentary on society, comedy and the culture today. Poor Gene Rayburn and his wonderful cast of comedians must be spinning in their graves.

Great show - glad it got renewed

I grew up enjoying the 70's version of this show. Didn't think they could match it, but they come awfully close and in some cases better. Alex is a great host and seems to come up with the jokes/comebacks in a fast/smart frame of mind. It's almost like he was meant to do this show. I didn't think he would work out, but he does.

I will say the panelist aren't always the best. There have been some exceptions but I'd say a good 50% of them should be removed in place of someone that might be better at the game. They do seem to be more adult oriented which I do find better then the original because some of the jokes that get knocked around from the answers had me laughing out loud.

Overall I looked forward to it coming on every week and was glad to see it added to the summer lineup. Can't wait for season two.

And for the people that rated it low.. some of them obviously had someone p*** in their corn flakes. Just because they made some jokes at Donald Trump doesn't mean you have to give the show one star. Lighten up a little!

Actually funny

Was surprised by the negative reviews, so wanted to offer a counter to the nostalgic viewpoints. And just to say, I was a kid during the original show, and did see reruns here and there, but was never much of a fan. Didn't find it compelling in any noticeable way.

This version is actually very funny, and a good deal of that is because of AB as host. From my perspective, they said take your naturally quirky humor of 30 Rock, and get into the character of a cheesy game show host. It totally works, he is just funny. It has to be a hard gig, especially doing it over and over and over again over time, but right now, he is really quick witted and humorous. He has good chemistry for the role.

I actually just watched something like my fifth or sixth episode this evening... was basically smiling the whole way through. How often does that get to happen?

I am amazed how hard some the contestants and celebs make it... Some of the questions are really obvious, but get no correct matches. And yet some questions get so dumbed down, that they really aren't a challenge at all. Think the bonus round match "peanut ..."?!? I mean come on, who can possibly miss that? So yeah, I am critical in the sense that this show isn't very compelling from the perspective of having the home audience really investing themselves in the contestant outcomes, but I felt the same way from the original.

It can improve in the writing, and selection of both contestants and celebs, but really does stand out because of AB's humor in his role as host. We will see over time, but pretty darn funny stuff out of the gates.

Alec Baldwin is terrific

I love the original Match Game with Gene Rayburn. The new Match Game show recognizes the greatness of the original. The set looks similar. Host Alec Baldwin uses the same ridiculously long microphone, the celebrity panel members are free to drink (the original panel members were know to tip a few before and/or during the show). Like the original, there are two rounds to see which contestant matches the panelist answers to goofy questions. The winner gets to go to the next round to pick the top answer to phrases such as Wedding _______. The better your answer the more money can be won in the Super Match round where you have to identically Match the answer of one of the six celebrity panelists.

So the new Match Game stays pretty true to the original. That is great. But what really makes this show special is Alec Baldwin. I never gave him much thought before this show one way or the other, but he is an outstanding host. So much so that I feel the show would not be the same without him. He makes it fun, has decent I assume scripted jokes, and makes the show light-hearted. It is great that a star has the courage to host a game show and doesn't feel it is beneath him. Whatever his reasons for hosting, I know I'm now a fan.

Finally, I love game shows so I may be more open to watching mediocre ones than the average person. But my wife does not like game shows, yet she loves this show. We watch the show together and love it. The six celebrity panelists are different each show with some repeats, and they all seem to have a blast. This is just a really fun show that will get you to laugh and escape reality for an hour. Great job Mr. Baldwin...you are the man!

Terrible, Horrible

The panel was dull & boring (especially Cara D.) and had no clue how to answer the questions.

Martin Short is NOT funny!!! He was silly & extremely boring.

Unless something changes, we will NO LONGER watch The Match Game!!!

Alec Baldwin and his panel were much more entertaining, and always funny!

Baldwin was made to host this show!

Harvey = Family Feud. Baldwin = Match Game.

Love Alec's wit, humor and attitude. He seriously needs a stand-up comedy show! Outstanding panel and laugh at/with the fun everyone has. Excellent questions. However, the show needs to screen some of the contestants... some of them are brain dead smh. All you idiot wannabe critics that base your reviews on your political agendas need to get a life and learn how to give an honest review - about THIS show.

It's a well deserved and honest 9/10 from me

Horrible!

Alec Baldwin is revolting! All of his "jokes" are about how much he hates the show. Very rarely do the "celebrities" match a contestant's answer because their responses are so ludicrous. He must have good dirt on some studio executive to make them keep renewing this garbage. 30 minutes of my life I'll never get back.

Gene Rayburn x 10

When I first heard of the new version of Match Game with Alec Baldwin as host, I was skeptical, not really having seen him doing anything like a game show, outside of acting roles. After seeing the show, he's done an excellent job! Gene Rayburn will always be thought of as THE Match Game host, but Alex Baldwin took the exact right approach. He didn't try to carbon copy Rayburn, he really brought a fun, goofiness to his duties as host, while still grasping the essence of the "Rayburness" that really made Match Game work. Part drunk cat corral hearder/part ribald lounge stand up comic.

The panel follows the who's new/who's through formula the original show did, always making for a mix that tend to really fire off each other. Every episode delivers.

All in all, of all the game show revivals, this one stands out for not being a stale remake while at the same time, being an honorable homage to the original.

BRING BACK ALEC!!!!

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?

Old/new contestant

Hi there, I was recently channel surfing and I stumbled across your show match game. I watched the episode and it really brought back some old memories! You guys even have that corny music and it looks like Alec has Gene's old microphone. But here's the best part I was on match game back in 80-81 when I was 22 years old and I won about $11000. Dollars matching Dick Martin of Rowan and Martin laugh-in show from the sixties. I think Betty White was on the panel also. I would love to tryout for the show again but I'm not sure how to audition for the show. I think it would be great to have the experience and it could make for some interesting nostalgia too! Sincerely, Art Benner

One MAJOR problem with this show.

All in all the show is good...BUT.....what I don't like is how political the very first episode was when I recently watched it. Both Rosie O'Donnell and Alec Baldwin were there to do a job...which was to entertain and help the guests win money, and NOT to sit there and use the ABC network as their own personal political soapbox. This is a GAME SHOW people..it is supposed to be fun and exciting to watch and NOT filled with the PERSONAL political views or jabs by the celebrities. As a result, I now absolutely REFUSE to watch this show and honestly feel as though Alec Baldwin should be replaced as host and Rosie O'Donnell should never be asked to be on the show again. This REALLLLY turned me off to the point where I cannot give the show a review because I felt as though I couldn't watch it then and will not continue to watch it in the future. ABC, you REALLLLY messed up big time with this one and this is most likely the reason that your reviews are not as good as you had hoped they would be. I am HIGHLY disappointed in the show and the network and the two celebrities who used this show as their own personal political event to try and shove their political opinions down other peoples throats. My support and respect for both Alec Baldwin and Rosie O'Donnell have now been flushed down the can......and hopefully their careers have too.

It's my favorite current game show.

They're drunk. They're wildly inappropriate.

What's not to love?

If I have a quibble, it's that the contestants are all over the place. But they are seemingly picked from (and I'm sorry for this) the least intelligent people in the room.

The old shows are a testament to how general Americans can be smart. They can have senses of humor.

This show we are laughing AT them, not with them.
