[Roadgeek Adam]

Episode No. 6732K

Tape Date: March 11, 2014.

I will put a recap up probably on Friday.

[GameShowKid]

Now or Then seemed extremely easy to me today. And that gym equipment? Extremely overpriced.   

Didn't expect that win in Line 'Em Up. Double eights?   Great win though.

[Bobby McBride]

CoG: Pair of prizes rule strikes again.

PaB: I was fearing a $100 slip was going to be in that bottom-right corner, but thankfully it wasn't.

LeU: What a fantastic way to end the car game drought! I was worried Elizabeth would get stuck in $16K+ land on the Ford Fiesta.

NoT: I haven't seen a gym that expensive since one on "Let's Make a Deal" early in its first CBS season.

1RP: I was surprised Cancun was more expensive than Durango.

MG: It was possible 42 could've been the back half for the first time all season long, but it wasn't. However, this playing was won anyway!

Showcases: If only Robert had used his $23,777 bid on the other Showcase...

Great show today!

Now..............We're getting somewhere.

THE BAD NEWS:

CoG: I guess we're going back to the "Trip/Going, Everything Else/Coming" method.

THE NOT-SO-BAD NEWS:

Punch-A-Bunch: Gabriel got a G-bar ($1000).......And I guess when it came to getting that twice and whether to keep it or throw it away and keep going, it was one of those "Damned if you do, damned if you don't" scenarios. At least it was better than getting no punches.

THE GOOD NEWS:

Line 'Em Up: Double 8s.........That would've been a Mikestopper right there. Good job on Elizabeth!

NoT: For a home gym that's worth more that $14K?!!! 

Now or Then seemed extremely easy to me today.

Even more easy with that Ology shampoo up there. Nice win by Robert, anyway. And a pretty close SC bid, too!

DP: Ghisaline made that so easy.

Money Game: Really thought that we would have either the front and back or stretch limo setting. Nice work by Stacy!

THE BOTTOM LINE:

All 3 cars have been won and winning more than $100K.........A great show today! The contestants and Drew were in full effect. But when George started to say "A galaxy far, far away........" on SC1, I was assuming that it'd be some sort of Star Wars-themed Showcase or something.

[moneygamelover]

Coming or Going: Today's contestant should have gone with her 1st instinct on those motorscooters. Your 1sst instinct is usually right.

Punch a Punch: $1000 isn't as much as you'd like in this game but is better than several alternatives.

Line em Up: Great to see the Ford Fiesta won. That TV was a pretty nice prize too. Finally the car jinx snapped.

Now or Then: Very easy now!

1 Right Price: Seemed like a crapshoot. Good to see some nice trips won.

Money Game: Exciting last chance win and great to see the Mazda won. This was setup to be lost considering 7 (along with 3) is the last digit you would intuitively expect a car price to end in. Great exciting win to end the day! Awesome !

Showcases: The Chevy Sonic LT was the better showcase.

Overall: 4 out of 6 with $1000 won on a loss ending on a 4 game winning streak and having all cars offered won! Wow! this was a great show today and easily the best show we've had in awhile.  Totally awesome baby!

The one thing I love about this episode: Bean Stalker Remix in a Showcase , and a Slightly Extended playing of it. I don't even remember either version of that cue being used in any Showcase since Drew took over.

I was going to post about the same thing. I don't believe it has been played previously in any segment of the show but the pricing game portion.

Yeah I think that's the longest playing of that cue since it was introduced - almost 30 seconds!!  Great to hear more of it!

Look at the date. I had been so busy I keep forgetting about this.

Didn't realize it was the 5/6 show. My bad.
