The family-friendly game show, which last aired in May 2021, won't be picked up for a fifth season after losing a sizeable portion of its audience last season.

I’m glad that Game of Games show didn’t work out, NBC should do anything better

When it comes to game shows NBC has always had success with some game shows such as Deal Or No Deal and 1 Vs 100 NBC was the top network for game shows but when you try to make a huge successful game show and have the biggest celebrity host it it may or may not always work. Which is what happened to Ellen's Game Of Games because as you know Ellen DeGeneres is the biggest name in talk show hosts right now and what I think she wanted to do was try to add game show host to her resume and I think she was aiming to be a female Regis Philbin and by having her name be on that show meant that she could become an even bigger superstar in the world. But I think now that Ellen's Game Of Games is over Ellen wants to move on to do bigger things but I the main problem was that the show wasn't promoted well in Season 4 and NBC had other shows to promote as well but when you spin off a talk show with a game show it doesn't always work the way you want
