ari333 15.7k March 28, 2014 Omg I love this show. Thought I'd hate it. Tried it. LOVE IT! I enjoy the celebs who go all psycho competitive. It's a little much, but I prefer that to the ones who are sort of meh. I cry from the funny at the Doo Doo Doo game and the other one with music or song titles or movie titles. The one game I think needs tweaking is the rewording game where you can't say the exact words of a famous quote. That seems too hard at times, well not "hard" per se, but hard to do quickly. Not crazy about the point spread on Clue Boom. Edited March 28, 2014 by ari333 Share this post Link to post
Rinaldo 7.6k March 30, 2014 Would "How Do You Doo?" work as a subtitle for this topic? Edited March 30, 2014 by Rinaldo 2 Share this post Link to post
Kromm 21.2k May 16, 2014 Anyone else see "Riot", over on FOX, the poor cousin of this show mixed with "Who's Line Is It Anyway"? 1 Share this post Link to post
Actionmage 4.2k June 7, 2014 I saw the episode with Jason Alexander and Cheryl Hines. It was okay, but it didn't keep my full attention through the show. I think you were close, Kromm, in your description, but I would make it: RIOT= Hollywood Game Night + Who's Line Is It Anyway? + Wipeout. I did like the slanted set, even if the gags went a bit longer than necessary. I like the Question game with the airlift. I did worry a little as the people seemed more jerked into the air like a doll a toddler plays with! My happiest surprise was seeing John Ross Bowie, Kripke of The Big Bang Theory! He's very funny.

bybrandy 3.1k June 8, 2014 I really enjoyed the Alexander/Hines episode. However, the next episode was hard to watch. i suspect like with Hollywood Game Night the quality of the show is really dependent on the willingness of the guests to go along with the game. Share this post Link to post
Grammaeryn 496 June 25, 2014 The episode topic numbering in all wonky: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3037520/episodes Share this post Link to post
yeswedo 800 June 26, 2014 @Grammaeryn we use TVDB for episode numbers. I checked and there were a few that had the wrong number which I've corrected. Thanks for pointing it out. The difference between the two is that IMDB lists 16 episodes for season 2 and TVDB lists 17. Share this post Link to post
Grammaeryn 496 June 26, 2014 @yeswedo Thanks! I got really confused there for a bit. :-) Share this post Link to post
Jaded 26.1k June 26, 2014 I didn't realize this season was over already. I'll have to go back and watch episodes I missed to get my fix for a bit I guess. Share this post Link to post
yeswedo 800 June 26, 2014 According to the NBC site there will be new episodes staring July 10th. 2 Share this post Link to post

April Bloodgate 882 July 13, 2014 How many of the shows games can realistically be played at your home party? I'd say quite a few: How Do You Doo I Love a Charade TV ID Take the Hint Lost in Translation In Other Words Show Me the Music (Instead of playing the song and having the guesser wear noise-cancelling headphones, just show the clue givers the title of the song.) Make Up Artists Link in the Chain Letter Have It Sounds Off Mono Tunes Celebrity Name Game Share this post Link to post
Lisin 8.9k July 13, 2014 Grr! My memory and Google fu are failing me but I know that fairly recently one of the EHG guests discussed making an at home version of Hollywood Game Night and listed several successful games. Hopefully @Tara Ariano remembers which episode it was and will chime in and help. It sounds like tons of fun though. Share this post Link to post
yeswedo 800 July 13, 2014 It's episode 33. I was just listening to it again the other day. Joe Reid used several of the games and had advice for making them work at home. Starts around minute 45. 1 Share this post Link to post
Lisin 8.9k July 13, 2014 Perfect @yeswedo! I had a hunch that was the one (because Joe Reid loves games!) but I wasn't positive. Thank you! Share this post Link to post

Twilight Man 516 March 19, 2016 One of my favorite moments - I forget which episode. It involved the final game, where the two chosen celebs are trying to explain other celebs to the contestant. If it's a sports star, they say "He/She plays for this team.... If it's a TV/Movie star, they say "He/She was in this show/movie..... If it's a music star, they say "He/She sang this song.... So the clue came up........ Khloe Kardashian. Both celebs froze for at least two seconds. One of them finally said "She's......one of the ......... sisters." I was on the floor, rolling around in laughter. Share this post Link to post
Jaded 26.1k March 19, 2016 I have 5 episodes on the DVR and haven't had the inkling to want to watch them. I'm not sure when it happened but sometime in this current season I sort of became disinterested in the show even though I really enjoyed it before. Share this post Link to post
