But fans were quick to make a major complaint about the program’s premiere, with many fuming over something they thought was “missing”.
Martin has expanded his relationship with Disney and is now hosting the hit game show after his Only Murders In The Building success.
Alec Baldwin previously hosted the revival of the 70s game show.
The game show was revived in 2016, after its original run in 1962.
Alec hosted the 2016 version, which ran until 2021 before it was canceled in 2022.
And now, with Martin at the helm and Alec gone, fans are airing their opinions
“Watching #MatchGame & I really miss & am disappointed that @AlecBaldwin is not the host anymore,” said one person on X.
They added, “I know it’s probably cause of the trial & what happened but can’t we get past that?
“He was the best host & I don’t know if I can still enjoy the show without him or not. Love you Alec.”
A second person then echoed, “I kinda miss Alec Baldwin and his Cool Wit but Martin Short is Hilarious to Watch! I Love when he Dances and his Physical Humor is unmatched.”
“They should have kept Alec. #MatchGame,” added a third.
While a fourth complained, “As a huge fan of match game I was very disappointed in the new version with Martin Short.
“The writing is terrible–they need more fun questions and true celebrities.
“Alec Baldwin’s version may have been raunchy but it was funny.”

The hit game show sees four contestants try to win $25,000 each week.
The contestants do this by trying to match celebrities’ answers in a game of fill-in-the-blank.
The panelists in the first episode are Selena Gomez, Cara Delevingne, Anthony Anderson, Ziwe, Kevin Nealon and BD Wong
People loved the chemistry between host Martin and panellist Selena.
Martin and Selena starred alongside one another in Only Murders In The Building, which is likely the reason for their bond.
One person swooned on Instagram, “Marty is a great host! Selena Gomez was one of the stars on it! She was so beautiful and brilliant!”
