This game show is so exciting! I've never missed a single episode! The set is so big, bright and modern and still holds some image of the 80's set. The prizes on the board are great and interesting. The whammies are funny and many make me laugh! I love how some former Press Your Luck players have been appearing on this new version for a chance to win more or redeem their loss from the 80's version. It's very exciting to see the bonus round where contestants try get a million dollars. I like how they have your friends and/or family there next to you for support. How they keep adding prizes that only YOU would want if you're in the bonus round, which makes the contestant more eager and faces them with the difficult decision to either press their luck & continue or quit. Contestants have really struggled with that decision. It puts both the studio and home audience on edge. Well, they can't make it too easy for you to decide or it wouldn't be a challenge.
Elizabeth Banks has been a great host! I know some people have been saying that she doesn't host the way Peter Tomarken did but every host has their own style. No two gameshow hosts host a show the same way. Drew Carey doesn't host The Price is Right the same way Bob Barker did but look how good he's done. There have been many different hosts of Family Feud over the years and they're all different. Elizabeth does a great job. She gets really involved in the game and really mingles with the contestants and shares their excitement, how she hugs them when she's happy for them and dances with them. She likes to make them happy. Her wardrobe is also very awesome. It's great how she coordinates her makeup with her outfits. She always looks stunning on Press Your Luck. She's the best person that happened to the game show world since Vanna White.
My only problem is I just wish this show would be on once a week all year round. It's kinda hard waiting a week for a new episode but waiting for a new season for months on end is torture! They've had special holiday episodes for the 4th of July but they should have special episodes also for Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Years. Would love to see what special whammies they'd put in for those holiday episodes! Having it on just in the summer isn't enough, it should be on all year round.
But other than that, absolutely AWESOME game show and I hope it continues for years to come!
