OMG!!! Wow! "Lingo" really got an upgrade. That new set looks enormous. I liked the old set a lot, but this one looks really really cool. Has kind of a "whammy-esque" feel. Are they taping at a different studio?
Not sure about "Stacey"...why does GSN insist on throwing a big breasted blonde sidekick into their shows? Come on..."Lingo" was doing well. Why add something like that? I will TRY to reserve my judgement until I actually see it, but this new character seems to me that it would take already precious time away from the game.
Anyhoo...glad to see that GSN is spending some $$ on Lingo. It's a really great show that deserves some attention and pampering.
Are the prizes/$ any different?

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.

The car, some Suzuki model(not the Aero SX seen on WHammy), will be the grand prize in a Tournament of CHampions to be held this upcoming season, as per a promo at the end of last week's "California Governor Race" special. On that special, the "celebs" were playing for all cash for charity purposes. My guess is that would be more attractive to give to charity than a trip to Jamaica. They may still offer a trip for a first-ball Lingo this coming season, we will see.

I didn't see the Season 3 sneak-peek, but I think the WordChick (tm) might be an okay addition. If they edit it well, having someone explain that BOERG is not a word, but hey! BOURG is actually a market town, similar to BOROUGH -- would be a lot more satisfying than an awkward pause followed by a buzz when the Disembodied Dictionary has to think about a word.

Resistance is futile. You will be assimilated.
