Password

The reason Wheel of Fotune and Jeopardy have lasted so long is that they stay away from the caffeine and other unregulated pharmaceuticals. There's no need for screaming and overreacting on this game show. You can practically see the audience signs: Scream! Groan! Cheer for no reason!

Keke Palmer's outfit made me want to put on sunglasses. Everything is just so over the top annoying. They ruined a great game.

I love the game of Password, but this manic, loud and obnoxious upgrade of the old show is disturbing. I loved the quietness and intensity of the original. When I saw that Jimmy Fallon was producing it, I knew it would be trouble. Keke Palmer is fine if only the whole atmosphere was not a circus.

I have nothing against Keke Palmer; I think she's a great actress. That being said, her role as the host was over the top and a little distracting. I agree with another reviewer who said that everything seemed overproduced, including the audience's OOHS and AHHS. I did like John Hamm and Jimmy Fallon as guests. If they tone it down a little, the show will be better.

I know it must have freaked producers out that there would be a show with people sitting behind a desk for an hour, but the audience can handle that without the manic energy that seems forced here. Excited people are great, but it can relax after a moment and just be a normal energy. That goes for the editing too... I was getting dizzy as the shot changed up like once every 5 seconds needlessly... just film it, doesn't have to switch so often. Finally, the show was Allan Ludden's and if it wasn't for Jimmy Fallon saying it he would have completely been cut out of mentions or tributes. I loved Betty White and I know she's fresh in our minds, but it was Allen's show and not to show him seems like the producers don't share the same love of the original as the audience does. There was also super password with Bert Convy which could also be given a nod. Tradition and keeping a steady pace aren't anti-new... it's important to keep that connection to the past and move forward. The set and love for the game is there & with a little tweaking this could be a fun new chapter.

The late Allen Ludden made the show a classic. This one is anything but. The original had just the right intensity and atmosphere. This one, like too many shows today, is way over produced. You've got Fallon acting like a 6 year old, a host who yaks too much and a screaming overly hyped up audience giving so many standing ovations that they lose their meaning. The original is still more fun to watch. Allen must be spinning in his grave.
