You guys know I try to avoid using this term as much as possible, but I'd have to say that Flip Flop today was an honest-to-goodness forced loss. I can't see any way any reasonable person could have won that.
I'm not sure whether Roger was going for an easy win or a painful loss in Lucky $even. Either way, though, it was nice to see it won on its last playing of the season.
This might be a first -- a contestant actually
benefitted from looking at the audience during Race Game!
Mary didn't really play Grocery Game too badly for the short time that she actually spent playing it...she just got stuck with the expensive version of the litter.
That's Too Much! was just odd. I'm not sure I've ever seen the fake prices distributed so evenly before. I really don't know what to make of that.
I never thought I'd say this, but thank God for Secret "X"!
Was anyone else disappointed that the first showcase ended without anything bad happening to Wanda?

Okay, I
think I know what happened here. At any rate, I've got a guess. According to the airdate schedule on CBS.com, although the episode was taped this week, its production number was still #3641K. I think that when the original taping got cancelled, they already knew that the show wouldn't be airing on May 29 anyway, so instead of getting the tapedates and airdates even closer together than they already were, they just skipped that episode and came back to it after everything else was finished.
(So unless there's a really screwy lineup on Monday, I would still consider today's show the season finale.)
