Ooh, no glasses. Going for the Jim Lange 1982 21 pilot no-glasses look, huh. Kinda difficult in my opinion because to me, Drew does not see too well without his glasses. I don't think I can now in an environment like that.
Money Game: I went for that look; it didn't work. It sounds like Catherine's daughter doesn't watch the game well enough, thinking that 20 could be the last two numbers. Then she was going to suggest 37; that wouldn't work either. Either they're doing the F-n-B or the B-n-F. They did the F-n-B.
Eazy az 123: I had a feeling the Apple would be worth over $3000. Britney probably thought so, too. Oh, the influence of the audience....
Bonus Game: Wow! SUPER ROTATION! Another rewind-and-watch-the-rotation-a-lot-more-times moment! Takes me back a few years ago when something like this happened. The way Drew handled the choices really threw me off. At least we all know how the game(s) work(s). If I was there, I probably would've made note of it similar to what I really done to another pricing game. Heck, I would've said lower too on the speakers. I hope (Brian and) I did not blow the game because of that last choice. [We] didn't.
Every time that "Fairfax" is mentioned, I sometimes wonder if Fairfax Ave is based on it.
Man, I think watching it in High Def would give the show and games more detail than seeing it in person. I think I need to invest in a high def television...
Pick-a-Number:
Okay, I have to let it out after a week.
When I was at the tapings, I try to follow directions from EVERYBODY so I won't end up being ineligible or allowed in the studio for (possibly) future tapings. I remembered from those tapings that Rich would tell us in his warm-up to [1] walk up the stage right (the usual) steps after winning the One Bid;
[2] run and play with our winning prizes if you want;
[3] stay with Drew after losing a game;
and a few others. From this episode alone, two of those suggestions were violated and one was enacted. I recalled a few people writing how lame (or similar negative words) it is for them to run to their prizes if they win it. If I was a contestant, I would follow every rule given to me. If they tell me to check out my prize, I'll do it. If they tell me to stay with Drew after I lose, I'll stay. Besides, I think it's lame to walk away from the host after a loss in the first place. I think all the excitement of being on the show does kinda make you forget that, which is understandable.
Grand Game: For the Lenten season, we're going to add another form of grocery product: Fish.
I kinda understand now about Drew's "libertarianism" thingy. The meat and fish and the foreign cars are here now. Please correct me if am wrong.
That's Too Much!: The second price? That's really putting emphasis on the title with the other prices.
I'll add a little story about Drew's Mini in my upcoming trip report.
Showcases: That's it? Just a game, trip and $1500? I would agree to go low. For the second Showcase, as soon as I saw the Seattle's Best coffee and then the trip, where else?
