I still think couples Price on Mother's day is a stupid idea.
I still think couples Price in general is a stupid idea. Contestant's Row in particular looks cramped when they have couples shows.
Hmm...they're now the "first four pairs of contestants". They need to pick one line and stick with it. I vote "you are the first four contestants", since the show should never have more than four contestants at a time.
Cover Up was played perfectly. It was certainly entertaining to watch it being played using the maximum number of tries.
The presentation of the necklace and bracelet set was awkward. Then again, every presentation involving tiny prizes like that is awkward. They really need to stop doing that (and stop using those stupid video monitors for backdrops, too!)
It looks like the used number board in Any Number has a red background now, going to black with the scratchout effect when the number is picked...that's certainly better, though I still think it would be better if the number just disappeared.
The first Showcase sucked. Too many trips, plus what happens if the winner doesn't live in California? Are they going to get flown to California just for a day in that spa in Santa Barbara? I really hate it when the show offers trips to Southern California- there's plenty of other (better!) places in the U.S. to offer trips! The second Showcase was better, though it didn't need a trip after the other Showcase was nothing but trips.
Andrea and Deborah's overbid was just painful. Drew's reveal flat-out sucked...if he can't do the dramatic reveal right, he should just go back to reading the price and moving on- don't dwell on it or drag it out. The way he dragged it out and dwelled on it made it seem like he'd forgotten that the other contestants won.
OVERALL: 3/5.
