Starring Jimmy Fallon and hosted by Keke Palmer, the iconic word-guessing game features celebrities teaming up with everyday contestants. These teams play a modern and refreshed version of the game that's inspired by classic Password, Password Plus, Super Password and the viral celebrity Password games seen on "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon." Players compete over three rounds of gameplay, taking turns trying to get their partner to guess the password using one-word clues. The team with the most points after two rounds heads to the bonus round, where they have 60 seconds to get the celebrity guests to correctly guess 10 passwords for a chance to win as much as $25,000.

Hugs and good humor, and something called the “Redemption Round,” guarantee an upbeat tone that makes it impossible to watch Password without smiling. Go to Full Review
Joel Keller Decider 08/10/2022
Despite the slow pace, easy clues and overreliance on guffaws, we still found ourselves playing along as if we were watching the older versions on BUZZR. Go to Full Review

Jimmy Fallon unfortunately makes himself the center of attention far too often in an otherwise decent—but not special—revival of the classic game show. Go to Full Review

I can report -- with more than a bit of surprise, I admit -- that the new Password is… not bad? And even a lot of fun at times. Go to Full Review

Jeff B 08/15/2022 This is a horrible show. Horrible host, too much talking between clues. The host shouldn't be repeating all the previous clues all the time. It's up to the players to remember those. And the constant whooping and hollering every time someone guesses a password is ridiculous. But that's how all the newer game shows are now.
