Marc — I presume your road trip is for Memorial Day weekend. Regardless, have a safe weekend. (And to all else who read this too.)

Today's show was great.  I pumped up the Delorean to 88 Jiggawats and gave it a view.  I know you will all enjoy it.

[mbetush]

I predict 3/6, $89,000

[AntmanB]

kepp in mind that this is TOMORROW'S RECAP AREA.

Production in G-R.net note:

Trytobecharming, if you read this (or if someone else). I cannot be in tomorrow or Monday and can't do the play by play in golden-road.net chat. Can someone do me a favor for those two days and do the play by play.

sideshowPA It's 1.21 Jiggawats and 88 MPH NOT 88 Jiggawats.

Slight change of plans. I am leaving for the Poconos probably around 12 something. I will not be here Monday but should be today

[Macsen]

My recap. (finally)

[icazzy]

Lucky:  BRUTAL OUCH.  This was going so well until the end... 1-7-5-4-9?  Anything that ends in 9 in Lucky is a loss IMO.

Master Key: First time I've seen the master key picked in a while.  And another cheap car won BTW.

Freeze:  Should've been won.

Showcases:  1st showcase was bleh.  2nd was better.

[Otm Shank]

I really felt Drew was channeling his inner Barker for this show. In case anyone from the production is lurking here, make a note of this episode, and keep it on hand.

The Lucky Seven 9 wouldn't have been bad if she stuck with 5s down the line after guessing the 7. In fact, she would have had an additional 1/3 gallon of gas thrown in.

[TPIRGuru]

And another cheap car won BTW.

At least they didn't mention HOW MUCH it costed. Thank goodness! Nice win though, nonetheless, AND Drew didn't mess up the reveal to boot!

Overall, though, really unimpressed with today's icky lineup! 2 quickies back-to-back, and then a third one in the beginning? Really? We could have had another game in there, like Shopping Spree instead or Swap Meet.

Drew was really nice to watch today though IMO. Been pretty good all week actually.

Lucky $even was just painful! I had a feeling that last number was a 9.

One Wrong Price was just TOO easy!

[PIR85]

Wow, according to the recap, the correct answer in Pushover was the final 4 blocks?  Has that ever happened before? 

[leafsfan17]

Tough way to lose on Lucky Seven. Nice win on Key, though.

[JokerFan]

Wow, according to the recap, the correct answer in Pushover was the final 4 blocks?  Has that ever happened before? 

Quite a few times.  Bob even asked Roger (I believe it was during Season 35) if that playing was the first time it happened, and Roger mentioned it happened several times before.
