I liked it. It's got some kinks to work out, and the game (and the host) are too hyper for their own good, but for a premiere I can let that slide. (Haven't seen episode 2 yet.)
But I could do without the rehearsed, fake-shocked "oooooh" reaction from the audience every time the password was announced. Even Jon Hamm was like "c'mon!" (That crap ruined the Jane Krakowski "Name That Tune" for me - why was the audience shocked that somebody said "I can name that tune in three notes"?)
