This is great news! I think it's neat that the three Jeopardy GOATs will serve as the chasers. I'm really looking forward to this.

Mark Labbett should at least make a cameo on the new version, but in 2021, flying in from the UK might not be feasible because of COVID, so it would have to be a virtual cameo. Maybe in 2022 if the show gets a second or third series, he could make an in person cameo.

This might work, I actually don't know who Sara Haines is nor how she would perform as a game show host but The Chase is a format that is easy to work with and the idea of Ken Jennings, Brad Rutter and James Holzhauer being chasers is something I wholeheartedly approve of.

It's pretty much the same format at GSN's run, except the questions in the cash builder round are worth $25K instead of GSN's $5K a question.

I said this because the host read the questions way too slow for a high paced show. Hopefully she'll improve in future episides

So far, I have to say that if I'm ranking the two US versions only, the GSN version so far comes out as vastly superior. And I can't begin to tell you how quickly I was won over with Brooke Burns hosting that. Though it doesn't mean that this current version can't improve and be better. I'm actually hoping we get a good run out of this because you know if it does well we'll see something like a US version of Beat the Chasers to follow it.
I know we're quite limited because of the pandemic right now and while I'm happy with the 3 people they have now, I do hope we'll eventually get more Chasers mixed into the rotation including the British ones.
Also I know this is a minor issue, but I don't understand why we can't have the complete original music package for this show here. It's like this weird combination of original and different sounds and it doesn't really fit. It's almost an upgrade because the GSN version had legit no music at all. I know the Australian version doesn't have this issue.

The final chase Ken Jennings had to score 20. He succeeded. The host has seemed to get better at reading the questions faster. There's no way that 20 would be beat last season considering on how slow the questions were read.

I'm not a fan of the sound effects that play after the chaser gets a question right in the final chase. It's so loud that you can barely hear the start of the question. It's so annoying.
