I liked this show more in the original form
Im sorry, but this version of the show, being re-started 4-5 years after the original version, just isn't the same. I love quiz shows, and trivia shows, and I liked this one too. I can't really put my finger on exactly what seems different, but one thing that stands out is the theme song, sung by children. Before, it sounded like a class-full of little kids, SINGING! (untrained, off-key in some cases, both boys and girls). New version is too homogenized (maybe synthesized?), or at least a trained gifted-children's choir of all girls. It just bugs me. Too perfect. Plus everything on-set is digital everything. Seems like someone asked their computer-wiz kid to "fix up whatever can be improved" and they over-improved everything visual, until it became distracting. The old way was just perfect in terms of visual appearance.
And now that it has been revealed that the kids may be shills/ringers, well, it does leave me a bit disillusioned. Enough to watch America's Got Talent, DVR Fifth Grader, and watch it if I get around to it. Too bad, because I am a fan of Jeff Foxworthy, just not loving this iteration of the show. And yes, it does seem a bit dragged out, as another comment said.
