DO they still have the question mark wild card balls in round two? I heard no reference to them during the first show on either Mon or Tue.

Yes; Shandi was even shown bouncing Chuck's wild ball around if I remember correctly.

Hehe...

[quote name=\'CarShark\' date=\'Aug 2 2005, 05:45 PM\']What I like:
* The set. ...
* The music. ...

What I don't like:
* Nothing special in the bowls.
* Shandy.
* The contestants.
* Speaking of artificially young...what with the blonde highlights?
* The payout.
* The schedule

Doesn't anybody watch for the actual gameplay?  To me, the glaring problem with Lingo has always been that it is not a "team" game.  They pretend to alternate guesses between the teammates when usually, it's either
a) one player does all the work, guessing his own words and whispering words to the teammate, or
b) the teammates look blankly at each other, not sure whose "turn" it is.

This ought to be easy enough to fix.  Why they haven't by now, I will never understand.

  • Just leave the set; that’d be terrific.

What do you suggest placing in the bowls that wouldn't muck the game up?  A tossed salad, perhaps?

Given that the original had a cash jackpot and a nice trip....perhaps this is what he had in mind.

I also noticed that Chuck's trademark "2 and 2" now lasts 3:30.

I liked everything new this week. The set looks great as well. I can also tell you that Florrisant Missouri (where Shandi and a contestant were from) is a suburb of Saint Louis Missouri.

Does anyone have any screengrabs or videos of the new season up yet? :)

I lost GSN six months ago to the digital tier and this is the first time since that I really wish I still had it!

The eternal..."a co-host isn't necessary" debate will always go on, but a co-host never bothered me. They are no more useful/useless than Vanna.

Long live Lingo! Hope I can catch an episode of the new season soon. I'm intrigued.

My complaint, and it's a minor one...sometimes Shandi doesn't speak up enough...she comes off sometimes a touch too soft on the air.  I like her banter with Chuck, and I love the new open "And, I'm Chuck...let's play Lingo."  If you'll excuse me, I gotta get highlights like Chuck W.

Who, after the game board automated, was mammary-glands-on-a-bull useless, so apparently you completely see my point.

Maybe he should start saying "3 and 3" - at least it's closer!

Well, add another 30 seconds, and "2 and 2" can mean 2+2. :)
