Newlywed Game


Bob Eubanks was the probably the most suited host for a game show. He made the Newlywed Game by egging on the contestants in a very playful manner. The show was entertaining and funny. Maybe it gave us more information than we needed to know, but we did find out where the strangest places were to make whoopee.

I was intrigued by the announcement that GSN has tapped Carnie Wilson (Wilson-Phillips), the gregarious and bubbly daughter of Brian Wilson to host the updated version to premiere April 6 on GSN. The real point of interest is the new bonus round where the winning newlywed couple challenges a still-married and a former original Newlywed Game couple (referred to as "Goldywed couples" on the show), going back as far as the 1960s.

Will they still be using Sharpies and placards to write their answers? I think it's a must. What will the wives use to hit the husbands over the heads with?
