I have been watching the first prime time network incarnation of Lingo and to me it has the potential to be the first hit game show of 2023. RuPaul Charles, in his first hosting assignment is outstanding and has great rapport with the contestants. But what makes this version stand out from the 1980s original version in syndication and its previous run on GSN is that Lingo is able to reach a bigger audience and more important, it's a show the viewer can play along with. Lingo is the show that will make you shout at the screen as the contestants try to solve Lingoes of five, six and 10 letters to win thousands of dollars in cash.
If you haven't seen Lingo yet, do so. It's a game you will be hooked on and it is destined to have a long run.
