Recap up early as I have a doctor's appointment at 1.

Man, I really did just about laugh out loud in the college library watching the clip the show posted to Facebook of Carlos just about to hop in the car and take Manuela with him, even offering George money from his pocket to take it without playing the game!

[TPIRfan#9821]

Besides not having a single full win today, an $8k bailout, 2 Clangers, a dollar on the wheel, and the $261 in Money Game made us win over $10k in cash today.

Besides that, rip the xx269 ending for 2.

[Teddy]

We almost had a but Carlos missed it by $18. Oh well...

[Wayoshi]

What the heck was up with the H-L reveal? It seemed like a decision just to have the kitchen hanging around in-shot during the game, nothing to do with a nod to the past or anything. REALLY REALLY weird.

[JayC]

Pretty interesting Hi Lo reveal today. I kind of liked the aerial shot. I was pretty sure the vinegar would be the 3rd product along with the medicine and cleaner. The creamer wasn't the really large size.

Tough loss in Cliff Hangers. Although it was a bad idea to make a guess lower than the price of the first SP and it was definitely going to be higher priced, $35 did seem like a lot for the bottle. Yolanda expected too much of a jump for the 3rd SP.

Switch has had quite a bit of bad luck all of a sudden.

[Josh444]

What the heck was up with the H-L reveal? It seemed like a decision just to have the kitchen hanging around in-shot during the game, nothing to do with a nod to the past or anything. REALLY REALLY weird.

Not how I see it. They clearly wanted a reveal similar to what they used to do by having Manuela push the game into shot. During most of the Drew era, the game would be staged behind the GPT. The only difference is the game is revealed post prize reveal, instead of before it. I actually think it worked well. I do wish they would go back to the classic Bonus Game reveal, though.

[tradersnob10]

This show laid an egg (a skunking except for the Gas Money bailout).

[tpirfan28]

So this was a new blocking for Hi Lo?  I did not see the reveal but caught it during gameplay.  I like it.

[Off_trak]

When did Hi-Lol get the fresh coat of paint?...

[htmlcc92]

Not the best quality, but to see the reveal, with Manuela wheeling the game in, I uploaded at

Short video and shot with my phone, but it shows it being brought in.

[JT]

I liked the Hi-Lo reveal (how many years since it has been wheeled out like that)? I just feel that the game was too far from the prizes when they were trying to get both in one shot.

[SteveGavazzi]

Yay for sort of bringing back the classic Hi Lo reveal!  I'd prefer if they'd stage it at the old angle, too, but I'll take what I can get!
