This was meant to be a huge post about all the game show weirdness I saw in the Netherlands, but now that I'm back I'll make it really short. They use 6 and 7 letter words on their version of Lingo now. That seems sacrilegious I guess, and I couldn't figure out the pattern. The morning episode I watched had 7 letter words, and the evening episode used 6.

Both versions had an updated format for round two, with each word actually bouncing back and forth between the teams automatically until a team got it right. This required each word actually starting with a "toss up word", unscrambled Ceasar's Challenge style, which had 10 letters.

They have That's the Question there still, which looks a lot like our version, for obvious reasons.
