    It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

    There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

    I'm a game show fan since way back when and since there are so few left, I'm saddened that yet another one bites the dust.True they won't win any Nobel Prizes for this show but it's not about that. It's cheesy, sometimes-raunchy (usually a couple of bleeps in every episode) game show fun that is one of my guilty pleasures which fill up my DVR.Bon voyage Craig. Perhaps you and Mr. Arquette can whip up another game show gem for us to enjoy. Thanks for the TV fun.

    Fast-paced and fun, at times you find yourself wondering how stupid some people can be, but then it makes us feel all the smarter. And whether contestants are truly connecting with their friend and assigned celebrity and getting the answers right from a word or two, or unable to identify Porky Pig by the clue "That's all, folks!", Craig Ferguson is worth the price of admission. He can make any show a party with his quick wit, shameless shenanigans in silly voices and physical comedy. He brings out the best in every celebrity who shows up, they clearly feel comfortable enough to relax and be silly too. Craig isn't mean but can do some good-natured ribbing when someone does something really lame, and you feel like saying "Thank you!" Watch the clips on the show's website and you'll be hooked.

    The fastest game show on TV, "Celebrity Name Game" pits two teams of two players against each other in trying (mostly) to name celebrities from clues given, mostly verbal. Along the way, they are assisted by two celebrities and by the host, Craig Ferguson, himself.The pace is so lively, they manage to squeeze four rounds into a half hour. In round one, teams get $100 for each correct answer. The stakes double in round two. In round three, Craig supplies the clues while the teams compete simultaneously. The team that wins moves on to round four where they can win $20,000 if they guess all ten names (and other things) correctly.The contestants are obviously chosen for their enthusiasm and aptitude. The celebrities are usually good players themselves. And Craig is his wacky self, though somewhat constrained by the structure of the show.Where I live, they play two episodes back to back every weekday evening before primetime, where there is little competition.

    I've read some negative reviews about this show, and I don't get it. Why are the reviewers expecting Downtown Abbey? it's a game show, it's mindless entertainment, and its fun! Yes, its corny at times, not sure why everyone thinks this is a downturn for the host, he is the corny one. But he is okay. I honestly love how excited most of the celebrities get so excited when the contestants win. And the celebrities are fairly high caliber for a game show, unlike Celebrity Game Night most of the celebrities on this show have actually had a paying job within the last five years. All in all, a fun way to spend 30 minutes.
