It's fabulous in every sense of the word.

Hollywood ReporterBarry Garron

The B-list panel... doesn't measure up to the likes of erudite and quick-witted Henry Morgan or Bill Cullen. But they enjoy themselves, and their fun can be contagious at times.

This coarse, unfunny mess is a Secret not worth keeping. [21 Apr 2006, p.67]

New York Daily NewsDavid Hinckley

The original "I've Got a Secret" was such a simple game show, and such a simple pleasure, that the only way to botch a remake would be to either spice it up or dumb it down. The Game Show Network... manages to do both.

Christopher P. gave it a2:
Jermaine Taylor tries his hardest to ruin the show and succeeds somewhat, and the other panelists are, at least, not excruciatingly annoying, particularly Billy, but the show itself just isn't that much fun, and none of the panelists are funny. The "clue" at the beginning of every game makes or breaks it for the contestant, as some are blatant giveaways while others barely have anything to do with it. Overall, it's just not that fun a show to watch.

Steve A gave it an8:
A refreshing return to television produced for the purpose of entertainig viewers.

michael c gave it a10:
My wife and I really enjoy this show, it is very funny! The panel and the host really make this show come alive!

Richard B gave it a9:
This shown is funny and entertaining. The host plays inton the panel and they do the same. The banter and actions during questioning can become hillarious. You will become a fan after watching it once or twice unless your lobotomy was a success.

Matt M gave it a6:
Why oh why does half the panel have to be flambuoyant gay men. I get very tired of that lazy, wink-wink humor.

Kitty Katz gave it a10:
Liove the show. I have two secrets, one involving Suzanne. Please contact me as I can't get thru on computer. 631 647-5400

brenda s gave it a10:
