Classic Update, 30 June 2003
Author: Brian Washington (Sargebri@att.net) from Los Angeles, California

This is a truly great version of the classic game show. The thing that you really have to enjoy about it is the classic contrasts in personalities between the Boston bred Peggy Cass and the Southern belle Kitty Carlisle. Also, the the wild set helped to give the show a more contemporary feel and probably helped to attract a lot of younger viewers to the show.Gary Moore also made this show fun as the host. And who could ever forget that theme song. That had to be one of the best ones ever written for a game show. Too bad Game Show network doesn't show this version. I think that showing this version along with the black and white version they show now would be a real treat for all the fans of this classic game show.
