1 of the couples is a gay couple (the other two are straight couples). I’m pleasantly surprised they weren’t on a “theme” show. (IIRC they did a celebrity gay couple episode) ---

It would be so easy to win The Newlywed Game…all you would have to do is pick one female name and one male name, and when you get a question asking to name a person, just use that name. Same thing goes for body parts, locations and numbers… Just pick one “go to” answer going in and you can walk away with the top prizes. I am also happy to see them include gay couples! I’m glad George Takei and Brad weren’t the one and only gays on that show.
