TPiR Recap - 2/26/2013

Well, this was definitely a budget show setup, and we really maxed our potential going 3/6 today. Nice to see Rat finally get off its winning streak. Really none of those SPs were easy today - they have to know that could have been wiped out easily, and they should also know that is exactly what you don't want to happen in Rat. So it was nice to see the contestant be able to convert on the one she did get right. Other than that, same old - 3rd prize in MOL is still a problem, Gold Bond is still a problem (we'll probably be seeing that in season 60! and annoying guestcases are annoying.

Timings:
One Wrong Price (3.5) - 3:17
Grand Game (5) - 4:56
Rat Race (6) - 6:26
Bargain Game (3.5) - 3:32
More Or Less (5.5) - 4:33
Flip Flop (3.5) - 3:06
Total (27): 25:50

OWP: I thought the kayak was even more expensive.

Grand: The deceptive Allegra Allergy didn't matter in the loss today.

Rat: Finally, a car win in this game this season (& it came down to the wire)!

Bargain: Easy.

MoL: If you're going to offer a Jeep/SUV here, set up the first three prizes like today's.

F-F: I knew that at least the Flip had to be done.

Showcases: They wanted the Pauley Showcase won badly today.

Better show than I thought today.

Half and half today.

THE BAD NEWS:

Flip Flop: Doesn't anybody know how much a dining set and grill are these days?

MoL: Well, at least Erica won some games and bikes...........Obviously, the Tacoma is "Less". 

Grand Game: Shame that Nicole lost, but she did won the Pauley Perrette SC.

THE GOOD NEWS:

OWP: Go Kendra! Go Kendra! Go Kendra!

BG: Love Zechariah's 'tache! Great win by him, too.

Rat Race: I was afraid we might get another wipeout, but it's a good thing that Pamela picked the pink rat!

3 wins are not too bad today!

Flip Flop: Doesn't anybody know how much a dining set and grill are these days?

I'm curious how the average person is going to know the difference between an $6,849 Dining Set and Grill, an $8,649 Dining Set and Grill, and a $8,694 Dining Set and Grill.

Honestly, that was a challenging setup.

One Wrong Prive, Bargain Game:  Nice wins!
Grand Game:  Evil, as usual.  What the heck's with the Allegra Allergy being only $6.47 today when it was $16.99 last week on It's In The Bag!?
Rat Race:  What an exciting win!

Not too bad overall, IMHO.  Nice to see Pauley Perrette again!

[GameShowKid]

Grand Game:  Evil, as usual.  What the heck's with the Allegra Allergy being only $6.47 today when it was $16.99 last week on It's In The Bag!?
Rat Race:  What an exciting win!

Concerning Grand Game and the Allegra: Gotta pay attention to number of tablets in the package.
Concerning Rat Race: Definitely agree with you. Great to watch.

I wish they would get rid of those contestant body mics. Hearing Erica during More or Less was just irritating. Who wants to hear someone yell and scream over and over into a microphone? (That would have been only a wee bit worse.)

An 8-speed automatic transmission (on the Charger)? Wow. Cool.

EVIL setup in Grand Game, I can't believe Gold Bond is more than $7.00
Great comeback in Rat Race!
MOL is hard as usual. I thought the washer/dryer were less personally.

EVIL setup in Grand Game, I can't believe Gold Bond is more than $7.00

Dude.  Seriously?  Gold Bond is like the Cadillac of the hand lotion industry.  It's always expensive.
