The password is…. renewed. Password, the Jimmy Fallon-led game show, is coming back for another season. In 2022, Password premiered as a remake of the 1961 game show, which featured numerous appearances by Betty White.
Jimmy Fallon, who also serves as executive producer, is the new White, appearing on every episode of the game show so far, alongside another celebrity. He is set to come back for Season 3.
About the renewal, Fallon and host Keke Palmer said in a press release, “We couldn’t be more excited to return to Password. It’s the only show where you get to lock eyes with a total stranger and think, ‘OK, based on absolutely nothing, we’re going to bet that you understand that when one of us says ‘fluffy,’ we mean ‘pillow.’ We love working with each other so much and are taking it to another level this season with bigger guests, wilder guesses, and guaranteed laughs.”
