FULL RECAP - TPiR 06/24/2009

[thewhammy_2000]

Bonkers: Okay, it was going good, then it became a gallery-looking disaster.

Any Number: For the second number: "It's a 1! It's a 1! It's a d--- 1!"

1 Right Price: I just knew it was wrong.

Check-Out: Well, I just had this feeling there would be a loss, but it was played so well like yesterday's Ten Chances.

Make Your Move: At first, I had no idea. But I came up with a different setup, and it was the right one.

Money Game: Ugh, that 14 was calling my name. If it was my last chance, I would have picked that and lose because of the 84.

Yes, Drew made several mentions of Rich being announcer of the year. But what I really liked was how he said that the models were the models of the year. I totally agreed with that. I called bull- on how those other models won the award.

Showcases: Something made me upset at the first (and only) Showcase overbid. The winning Showcase bid made me feel a little better.

BEST CONTESTANT OF THE DAY: Jenny
SHOW GRADE: 2

[joeyboy]

Bonkers: Ignore the audience for games like this.

Any #: I knew when the first number revealed was a two that the second number had to be 0, 1. or 2.

One Right Price: tough loss.

Check-Out: Fantastic playing!

Make Your Move: relatively easy setup. I like how the iPod was done in lower-case letters.

Money Game: I was so hoping for Spelling Bee.

Showcases: decent showcases.

Good show today. Drew was on his game today.

[catdogwheel]

I for one thought that today's show was pretty good, despite only one game being won. Congratulations to Rich Fields for announcer of the year! Johnny and Rod would be so proud!

Bonkers- Should not have been lost! No Excuse! It was kind of interesting that she was doing the exact opposite of what Drew was saying when he said to not waste any time through out her guessing.

Any #- I think if she would've been focused on getting the second digit in the car when she called her final number before finding it in the bank that she may have won.

One Right Price- Does anyone know when the last time this game was won?

Check-Out- WHAT A PLAYER! He came up admitting he didn't know prices of anything and won within $0-$1.00!

Make Your Move- Great to see this game again but I know she had lost even before Drew had asked for the reveal.

Not a bad show. I'll give it a B+

[SteveGavazzi]

Drew did some uncharacteristically decent hosting today.  He dealt with some of the losses very professionally, handled a bad playing of Bonkers quite well, made an already good playing of Check-Out even more exciting, and hosted Money Game probably the best he ever has.

I had to laugh at the computer in 1 Right Price -- it showed the TPIR video game in the middle of 3 Strikes!

Bonkers really bugged me today... notice that Drew didn't let her press the button after time ran out after her third guess

That's true...but based on how Drew reacted when the lights came on, I'm pretty sure he still intended to count it.

[jharvey79]

This was a fairly decent show today, despite the low win total again.

Checkout was just brilliantly played today! It did not seem so at first, he really seemed to pick a couple of prices out of the air. I actually thought the spray and wash was going to be a lot more than that.

[Dietevil]

When the Any Number woman jumped on Drew, her lower back was blurred out. Wonder if they had to censor some accidental nudity, or if there was an inappropriate tattoo, or what.

Here's hoping that 3 Strikes lives on in the actual show and not just flashbacks and computer games.

I was wondering if the censoring was just CBS.com / poor quality. Probably a butt crack.

[Cartboy]

Bonkers:  Horrible.  Just horrible.
Check Out:  Great win!   BTW, I'd like to thank Rich DiPirro for showing the difference (note sarcasm).

Not too good overall, IMHO.

Congrats to Rich Fields for winning Announcer of the Year!

The computer in One Right Price had 3 Strikes from the TPIR computer game on it.

It's probably wishful thinking, but maybe that means it'll reappear soon...

We can only hope.

[edmojautis]

Bonkers: Some people just don't pay attention to the rules. 

Any #: Why did Jenny guess all those high numbers? I was literally screaming "ONE, STUPID, ONE". Looked what it got her, too.

1RP: Too bad.

Check-Out: I'm quite amazed by John's playing. I actually thought he missed the Gold Bond by a dollar or so. Great win.

MYM: I knew Tari had no chance after her guess on the Hot Tub.

Money: My first guess on the last two digits would've been 14 and then 84. I wish Stephanie followed my lead.

A 2.25-star show.

[leafsfan17]

Yeah, I've seen enough playings of Bonkers to know that contestants shouldn't look to the audience in that game, but they do it anyway. Let's hope that the contestants improve on that in that game in Season 38.
