One of my few moments of sheer joy and happiness is watching game shows because it brings me back to my days of childhood innocence. When I was young game shows were all over daytime TV. That's right kids; no 'Baby Daddy' talk shows, people masquerading as competent court judges or supposed 'soul baring' sessions with Dr. Phil. Just real contestants and mostly B grade celebrities whose only objective was having fun. Sounds downright quaint, eh?
Well, I've recently learned that the two breakout hits of last summer "$100,000 Pyramid" and "Match Game" have been renewed for a a second season with "Match Game" premiering on 1/4/17 along with the Anthony Anderson hosted "To Tell The Truth" that I have already not recommended for game show purists. "Pyramid" will return whenever host Michael Strahan has a free moment from his other 37 hosting duties, one supposes. Let the innocence return, if only for a few fleeting hours a week. And if I'm asleep, make sure my blanket covers me.
