Jimmy Fallon is Exec Producer

A game show based on the popular New York Times puzzle Wordle is in development at NBC, with TODAY anchor Savannah Guthrie set to host.

Guthrie has a bit of game show experience herself, having served as a guest host on Jeopardy! in 2021 following the death of Alex Trebek. In addition to TODAY, Guthrie also co-hosts NBC’s annual Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade coverage.

1. Could be a good show.

But, if Savannah is the host, I can’t watch it. I find her quite annoying.

2. Sounds bad. I can't imagine how many annoying bells and whistles they will have to

add to keep people's attention. It is a simple five-letter guessing game; by itself that isn't good TV -- judged by the standard of these other fucking annoying game shows they keep making.

3. A waste of time

On my good days I can solve a Wordle in less than than a minute, then move on with my day. I’m not going to spend a half hour watching someone else on TV solving Wordle puzzles!

4. Wasn't that Lingo with RuPaaul as the host(ess) about a year ago

man, that really sucked
