In an exciting and powerful show. His idea of the competition lies in this exciting game in which two of the contestants try to match celebrity answers through a game fall-in the missing blank. The season includes a large series of celebrities including Adam Goldberg; Ana Gasteyer; Horatio Sanz; Rosie O'Donnell; Sherri Shepherd and Tituss Burgess, Michael Ian Black, Rosie O'Donnell, Sutton Foster and Tews Burgess. The show features the Golden Globe and the award-winning actor Amy Alec Baldwin.
The vibe is loose and giggly, Baldwin is an apt and quick-witted host, and the celebrity guests are game on this nicely done reboot of the 1960s quiz show that's a lot of fun to watch.
Alec Baldwin is the host. Let me repeat that: Alec Baldwin -- Emmy-winning, Oscar-nominated Alec Baldwin -- is the host. How the hell did that happen? I don't know, but man, is he something to watch.
The creators of this revival achieved what long seemed impossible -- a great new Match Game -- by restoring the concept's original simplicity and letting smart players fill in the blanks.
It's just not as good as my beloved '70s version. Nobody sparks the same joy in me as Gene or Richard or Charles or the queen of Match Game, Patti Deutsch.
