A Sucky Revival

Well, I was reading the Game Show Forums and a post from March 2008. And I saw a post I'll share later in this blog post. It had something to do with The Match Game Hollywood Squares Hour. I saw a couple episodes of this, and I puked. Yeah, Gene didn't seem to enjoy it that much, and it was just stupid. I'm sorry but it was putrid, and very unwatchable. Jon Bauman, I'm sorry, I liked the Gangsta Bowzer that I've seen on the Late 70's Match Game and Password Plus in which he was cooler and enjoyable (OK, I liked his Super Password appearance). However, yeah, the stars weren't that great, both shows were weary and tired, and needed longer rests.

Now what brought me to this horrid review, it was this post. What was a normal tape schedule for The Match Game Hollywood Squares Hour


8:45 - Drag Gene kicking and screaming into the studio
9:00 - Tape first show
10:00 - Chase Gene back to dressing room. Call locksmith.
10:15 - Locksmith arrives
10:30 - Lock picked on dressing room door, drag Gene back into studio...

Yeah, I got a kick out of that. Well, this revival beat the 98 version of Match Game and Davidson's Squares, although the 1960's Match Game was much better.

New Square

Well, MTV2 is getting into the Game Show business with their new show, Hip Hop Squares. Well, Peter Rosenberg is the host. Well, it will feature MTV2 like stars doing the zingers.

However, this does look like absoulute trash. Here is what one poster said

Yeah, THIS show has a lot of potential...

"Fiddy, did you smack your beyotch today?"

"I agree"

"Circle Gets The Square".

That was from someone on the GSN board. Yeah, I can see the show being like that. Debuts May 22 at 11:00pm ET on MTV2. Don't know if it's worth giving a shot.
