Live near or are planning to visit Las Vegas in July or August, 2019?  It's your chance to be a contestant on Catch 21!

This time they're shooting for knowledgeable contestants. I wonder how that will affect the game.

I watched an episode this afternoon, and I either didn't give this fair shot 10 years ago or I've mellowed out over the years, because this really wasn't a bad show, in an era where I was not fond of too many modern game shows. A little loud and times yes, and the bonus round dragged in places - I could definitely tell Alfonso was vamping - but again, I think it fits what GSN is looking for in its afternoon lineup.

/The winning contestant's bonus round strategy, on the other hand, was abysmal

I can't wait to see who will host the show
I thought Catch 21 was a pretty good show.
I thought Alfonso was annoying and loud if he does come back i hope he tones it down a bit.

Buzzerblog tweeted that Alfonzo Ribeiro is returning to host (not a big shock in hindsight) and the new dealer will be Witney Carson (who was Alfonzo's partner when he won DWTS a couple of years back, so the chemistry will be there)

So I suppose that means Alfonso joins a select group that includes Alex Trebek, Wink Martindale, Allen Ludden, Gene Rayburn, Bert Convy, Tom Kennedy, Monty Hall and even Bob Barker, all of whom have hosted more than one version of the same game show.
