The Newlywed Game is a television game show that first aired in 1966. The show features newly married couples who answer questions about each other to see how well they know one another. Contestants earn points by matching their answers, and the couple with the most points wins a prize. The format typically includes three rounds of questions, with the first two rounds focusing on personal preferences and experiences. In the final round, couples answer questions while separated, aiming to match their partner's responses. The show has become a popular staple in American pop culture, often highlighting the humor and challenges of marriage.
