Poor Yvonne. I don't really know
why she's poor Yvonne, since she won stuff... I guess its just how her nerves really showed. And she didn't win a car, but that might be good for her health, there
. She actually played pretty well, and surprisingly fast anyway, considering that, so I can't complain!
Today was one of the hardest Triple Play setups I've ever seen. Today was a rare playing where a contestant could have reasonably lost on the first car, and the second car was tough, too. But especially with the third car: $23,110 just screamed "pick me!" but it was the wrong price.
Speaking of Triple Play, I love the "new" camera shot of Drew and the contestant for the car reveals! Or I love the Most Expensive for trips camera shot, I should say! Seriously, I was expecting Most Expensive for three trips for the first game!
As hard as Triple Play was, though, Most Expensive--no trips--was even harder. It looked like a tossup between the barbecue and the wine cabinet. Was there any chance that anyone would've actually taken the computer?
The camera shot of Laura getting 65¢ on the wheel--what she needed for $1.00--has to have been the absolute worst camera work so far this season! Absolutely atrocious! Instead of keeping the camera on the wheel, to see if it would stay on 65¢, or move on to 10¢, Bart prematurely shot Laura! Not Laura and the wheel, but just Laura! How could... how...
URGH! That should have been a suspensful moment--to see if it would stop at 65¢, or move onto the dime--I really thought it was going to go to the dime--but Bart just
had to kill the tension there.
On a less frustrating, but still a little frustrating note, did anyone notice that someone in the audience booed Laura's first spin while it was still spinning? Can't the person at least wait to see if the wheel possibly makes it all the way around first? Guess I'm happy that at least it wasn't the whole audience joining in this time.
I wonder why Robert passed the first showcase to Laura. I mean, it obviously worked out for him in the end, but considering he seemed to want the car... just being nice, I guess.
Has the show ever offered Ligna furniture on the show before? Wonder if the price is closer to Ashley or Aico? whinny, you know the price of everything, right? Guess I'll have to wait and see.
And you know, Maria Priceleone, you may not strike unintended fear if you didn't speak in stereotypical gangster expressions

Considering how quickly and deliberately Gay was playing Check Game, I was surprised she didn't trying writing the amount in words. Dunno' if she'd have been allowed to, but I was kinda' surprised she didn't try to do so, anyway.
Laura, Alyssa, and Aylin all looked nice.
I found today's playing of Two for the Price of One easy solely because Rich now announces the total in the game. I'd have lost today's playing had there been no total announced.
I kinda' wish we had Bob hosting Money Game today. But really just to see whether he would have referred to 11 as El Cheapo.
No Hole in One on Monday's show... no Let 'em Roll on today's show... the lack of GPs must just be killing Roger inside
