I am surprised by how overboard negative a lot of your reviews are fellow IMDb.com people.
Don't get me wrong, I am not saying that Match Game is a good show, it is not a good show.
But it is not a one out of ten or the worst game show ever or "garbage" or whatever else you are calling it. It is a growing concern to me that people always jump to one out of ten if they dislike something and calling it the worst movie ever, or calling something ten out of ten and he best movie ever if they like it at all. There are all those other numbers in the middle!
I give Match Game a four and I think it is slightly less than the average shows it is up against.
I say it is not very good for many of the same reasons you do. The contestants seem both bored and boring. The host is not very funny or personable but at the same time I sometimes find it refreshing that he is different from the other TV show hosts out there. The panelists and in particular Shawn Cullen and Debra D. are really awful and not very creative or funny at coming up with good fill in the blank answers.
Let's remember there are more ratings than just one or ten okay? It makes things more fun and much more fair.
