Take that, GRECO !

[Wayoshi]

It's a good thing today's pitiful excuse for showcases occurred on a good pricing game day, so the blow was not as great.

[goldroadfanatic]

Lest we forget, it's been three years since Bob's final show aired.  Interestingly, Lucky $even and Plinko were both played today, like on Bob's final show.

Lucky $even was just awesome to watch, someone beat a very difficult setup and still had $4 at the end of the game. 

Money Game was also great to watch; with El Cheapo being picked for the win.

I'm surprised that 2 For the Price of 1 was won.  With all the designer clothes and accessories we've seen on the show, you'd think those three sunglasses would carry a hefty pricetag, but they didn't.

It was strange to hear the prize package amount in 2 For 1 not revealed.

I think the new wipe in Bullseye is pretty cool, if a bit too busy and flashy.

[Off_trak]

Watching Bullseye in Hi Def today proved that some of the pricing game props do need a face lift. I could easily see where the painted black rings bled onto the red sections.

Lucky $even showed every once and a while you just need to play your gut, and not a "system"...

[EyeMobileScott]

Today's Lucky $even showed a rare instance where the peanut gallery knew exactly what was going on. Almost everyone in [I forget her name]'s entourage was gesturing the correct last two numbers. I'm sure they were probably in the audience the last time that $23,391 Jeep was featured and they just remembered, but still, I could just picture the look on Greco's face as she was watching the monitor realizing her system was getting beat--again.

[icazzy]

Money: El Cheapo was picked and won!

Lucky: Today's playing was just awesome.  This was begging for a loss, but it wasn't.

2ftpo1 was somehow won; with designer sunglasses as a prize you would think they were more expensive than they really were.

Showcases were bleh today.

[spoon14]

Lucky $even showed every once and a while you just need to play your gut, and not a "system"...

I don't think she played her gut. She probably followed someone who knew the right price in the audience. She was right on target with some digits, and must have missed the signals in the beginning or started following someone else. Picking 1 as the last digit is totally nuts if you have so much money left over. Drew look so downcast when she picked it. But she had someone who remembered the price.

Generally, a well played show. I loved the playing of 2 For the Price of 1. Notice that 3 sunglasses totaled $450. Smart thinking.

The exception to the good play was Bullseye. He was lucky to get such an easy game with a second chance. He picked cheap prizes and totally low-balled. As soon as I saw the Rinaldi sauce, I said 6. They reuse that so often.

Probably not only that, but realizing that fans DO pay attention to the smallest details of the show. This situation reminds me of the DSW exacta from last season. Hopefully this playing of Lucky 7 will help Greco realize she's become too predictable in a few of the games.

It's always so surprising to me in this game how often contestant's can really low-ball their guesses but recover with the hidden bullseye.

Someone remind me on what show there was a Jeep with the exact price of $23,391?

[3StrikesFan]

Someone remind me on what show there was a Jeep with the exact price of $23,391?

I don't think the price for this Jeep has ever been on before. I think it's more to the point that more cars in Lucky Seven have had 1's or 9's in the price. There have been many times this season where the last number was either 1 or 9. Now, this Jeep's price may never have been used in Lucky Seven but how many cars this season have had 1's or 9's in the price? That's why this game has been lost so much this year. Kathy set today's playing up for a loss, there's no question about it.

No, this exact car has been in the show VERY recently.

[3StrikesFan]

No, this exact car has been in the show VERY recently.

Sure, the Jeep has been on, but what Wayoshi was asking is if that price for the Jeep has been used. I'm guessing no.

[Wayoshi]

"I'm sure they were probably in the audience the last time that $23,391 Jeep was featured..."

I'm reacting to this quote. I want proof.

[spoon14]

Sure, the Jeep has been on, but what Wayoshi was asking is if that price for the Jeep has been used. I'm guessing no.

I used the search function and found that a Jeep costing $23,391 was on the 5/21/10 show. That was today's price for the Jeep, right?

Since today's show taped on 5/24, they could've seen the same price on TV literally the same week.
