Posters praise Elizabeth Montgomery for turning up her bewitching nose at Password Plus. Seems she thought the revival was some kind of bastardization of the ancient original. Boy, she'd be right at home on Matt's board. This is way-out-there traditionalism.
Sorry, folks, but I think the original Password was an exercise in tedium, right down to Allen Ludden's impersonation of an owlish professor. At least Password Plus quickened the pace and varied the gameplay a little, and it didn't pretend to be educational TV.
As for Elizabeth, I would have told her to lighten up. Maybe a poster on the Sitcoms Online board had it about right. "Yep, Liz Montgomery was known to have an attitude and took herself and things she did (Bewitched is one example) much too seriously...She was right at home though when on Password. This is a game show that also took itself too seriously."
