Funny! When I got my first glimpse at the LexiBabe (tm), I thought, "Wow! Jeri Ryan!"

I could be wrong on this, but didn't I read that season 3, cars will possibly be offered?
Also, despite the set change, it's interesting to see there's still no score displays for contestants. Eh. [/quote]

Note also that the score display during bonus Lingo has vanished from the podium as well.

Well, more to the point, notice that the contestants are playing Bonus Lingo from their respective podiums instead of a separate bonus podium (hence the different camera angles and the placement of the board on the left-hand side of the screen).

My problem with Lingo is that the game itself is dull as dirt (yes, it's modestly "intellectual" but it's just plain dull) and the atmosphere of the show is, for lack of a better word, "sterile". The contestants stare blankly into the camera while introducing themselves, and while holding up the "lingo balls", and how many times can Chuck say "OK, reach in there and get 'cha a coupla' Lingo balls?".
Can't tell from your pictures if they have made it more interesting. I don't think adding a "bunny" will help.

Maybe if they let Chuck loosen up a little more where he is more "Scrabbble-ish" than "Greed-ish". I used to love the times on "Scrabble" when he would make fun of some of the words, and the people who wrote the clues.
Perhaps add in an occasional pink or blue square on the Lingo board, throw in some Chuck Bucks, and..... :-D
