Nickelodeon debuts its remake of Figure It Out today, with Jeff Sutphen at the helm instead of Summer Sanders.
Normally, I would take in the debut and write a not too snarky review (I hope). But my indifference to most kid game shows got the better of me, and I only checked the Figure It Out web site. Watched some video, read some comments, got the idea. The show remains a fairly entertaining combination of I've Got a Secret and green slime. And other stuff which clutters up the set.
Really, you could do a lot worse than let your kids watch the show. They won't get too grossed out and they'll have some fun with Nick's versions of "celebs" trying to, er, figure out the secrets. My all-time fave among kid game shows, and the only one I ever watched regularly as an adult, was Legends of the Hidden Temple. But Figure It Out will do for the pre-pubescent set.
