Brooke Burns hosted the previous US version of The Chase. She exhibits an amazing combination of orthoepy, personality and beauty. She must not be available for this new version because she is FAR superior in every way to Sara Haines. Sara's voice is actually slow and somewhat irritating.
The previous version also featured "The Beast" who both physically was the size of a beast and also served as a better foil for the crowd to root against. In addition, we got to see Beauty and the Beast in every show. The current big 3 from Jeopardy fame are very likable and thus don't set up the same tension.
All in all I recommend the previous version and give this one 3 stars for the 3 champs.
