This was fantastic episode with high energy and awesome breakdancing! Rumer was a lot of fun as a guest panelist.

In this episode, Tyson was a disgrace. Are the panelists scripted or is he really that stupid ? Slumping in his chair and making idiotic remarks doesn't help the show.
Anthony Anderson's script routinely pokes criticisms at the original shows. Disgusting ignorance and disrespect. Maybe someone in/on the show should actually watch them.
Anderson's laugh is obviously fake, and annoying. It appears to be just for attention ... he is the loudest ... listen to me.
The show, depending upon the panelists, is very entertaining. Choosing people like Tyson as a panelist is a mistake, IMHO. How does he help the show ? Why would anyone want to hear/see him other than in a boxing ring ? I find the repeated use of the "woman in disguise" to add character to the show. However ... this is straight from the old episodes when Henry Morgan did the same. This was not an original concept for the current show. So the current shows uses most of the same formats of the original shows from the 50s, and then criticizes them.
What appears to be original is "Before You Go", which is great to watch. However, this is not original either, it was used at least by '65. So there is nothing original about the latest show (except for having fake laughter). As is often the case, history is lost. And to be repetitive, Anderson has been scripted to slander the old shows. I cannot blame him unless he actually agrees with what he was scripted to say. It is the writers that should educate themselves.
I would suggest folks watch the original shows. Most are before my time, however the history is amazing. Cold War (not in a freezer). Presidents Truman, JFK, Johnson, etc. Mentioned (they were alive), the issues with communism (whether you agree or not), Cuban Missile Crisis, refugees from Cuba, support of the poor and people of all colors, races, religions, etc. ... in the 50s+. Bud Collyer, and other hosts, put Anderson to shame. And the current show criticizes them based on ignorance.
I rate this particular episode as a 1, the show itself, a 6.
