Decades ago it had interesting questions with the occasional tongue in cheek or ones that could be unwittingly misinterpreted by the contestants that would make it funny.

Watched it for the first time in ages and at least half of the questions were blantantly provacative just to illicit laughter.

It's like they try way too hard now and it gets tiring

Exactly. They have every intention of causing sexual innuendos, and then Steve Harvey acts like he is shocked every time he hears it.

The average adult has the mind of a 14 year old today.

"Top 5 things your wife sucks on" is a perfectly reasonable category

The old Match Game in the 70’s was practically all innuendo by design.

there's a difference in being witty(double entendre, for example,) and just putting it all out there leaving nothing to the imagination

I agree. They need to tone down the sexual junk and give us something a little more intellectually stimulating.

Although I didn’t live in the era, but watching clips of some of those old episodes, I had to wonder how did this pass some of the censors.

The crazy part was that some of these shows only existed because of the Local Prime Time Rule that prevented networks from starting network programming at 7:30/6:30 central Monday through Friday.

What ended up happening was that local stations instead of filling it with local programming, syndication took over and game shows filled the slots, some of which were just prime time versions of the daytime network show until newsmagazine shows started to steal the slot with ET, A Current Affair, and the game show craze waned in the 1980’s.

they've added some culture to it.

also, some of the answers to the surveys are just stupid. there is no way actual people gave those answers.
