The Chase

I like the 3 experts, although the show could do do without the unnecessary banter back stage from the non chasing chasers. My biggest issue is with Sarah Haines. He is not as personable as Brooke and really needs to read the questions much quicker. She is way to slow. Don't know if she will improve over time. I will stick with the GSN reruns or the British versions.

Sara limits this show so much, though. She's terribly slow and lacks the personality to be a game show host.

The Jeopardy! crew lack personality compared to the original Chasers and focus only on snarky insults instead of playful banter.

Brooke Burns hosted the previous US version of The Chase. She exhibits an amazing combination of orthoepy, personality and beauty. She must not be available for this new version because she is FAR superior in every way to Sara Haines. Sara's voice is actually slow and somewhat irritating.

The previous version also featured "The Beast" who both physically was the size of a beast and also served as a better foil for the crowd to root against. In addition, we got to see Beauty and the Beast in every show. The current big 3 from Jeopardy fame are very likable and thus don't set up the same tension.

All in all I recommend the previous version and give this one 3 stars for the 3 champs.

The pace of this remake is slow and drawn out. The host needs to be more up beat .

I'm being nice and giving it 2 stars and not oneI watched the first episode of season 3. What a big disappointment.

The Chase was a great show with Brooke and Beastie. Their friendly banter added so much to the show.

Sara Haines does not compare to Brooke Burns. Brooke was on point. She was fast, clear and consistent. Sara is slow and seems to struggle when reading the questions.

Sara also seemed to be completely on script, as if she couldn't add any of her own personality to the show.

The " Lightning Bolt" chaser was also boring and doesn't seem to be as smart as The Beast.

The added chasers sitting in the lounge is a big snooze fest.

I guess I will have to watch the old reruns on Netflix. I miss Brooke Burns and Beastie.
