-Season starts airing in November.
-65 shows.
-Set more "curved" instead of "flattened" as it was in Season 5, logo still present stage right, staging is still the same, including the lit runway in front.
-The two-part, 30 point question has been replaced by a single 25-point bonus question, making the total max possible score 70.
-They have added an "instant replay" function which is used in-game, which they call the "I Do-Over". Used when one spouse has given an answer drastically different than the second spouse gives. The first spouse's answer is played back on screen then the second spouse's reaction is captured as s/he views it.

You heard it here first, folks.

Six years means they must be doing something right. What they're doing, I don't know, because I don't watch.

I believe that ties Woolery's Lingo for the longest running GSN produced game show. This doesn't count Engvall's version.

By my count, this will put GSN's Newlywed Game at 430 episodes, where Woolery's Lingo had 345 shows. Thus, Newlywed Game surpassed it effective last season.

If this were daytime network TV of the 60s-70's, 6 years of production would put the episode count at 1560.

It's been six cycles, not six years. The show came back in 2009.
