I have thoroughly enjoyed this revival of IGAS. I am within a few weeks of my sixty-ninth birthday and am considerably older than the baby boomer who lambasted this version of IGAS. I, on the other hand, love it.
The panelist are all young and fresh and the host (Bil Dwyer) has boundless energy, unlike the Gary Moore, Kitty Carlisle (still alive in 2006), Peggy Cass, Betsy Palmer etc. show of so many years ago. Though enjoyable as the old version was, it cannot compare to the 2006 version. Even the masks have been updated! Clever. The prizes put the old show to shame.
Why do I like it? Each contestant (one with the secret) usually performs his secret after it is guessed or the panel strikes out. This makes the program totally different from the original version.
If you don't already know, the panelist all have a public secret! You'll have to watch IGAS 2006 in order to find out. It's a hoot! I highly recommend you see this new take-off on an old television standby.
