Got The Casey Anthony Show® again. I am currently working on Friday's recap now.

[GSB92]

Lineup:

Let em Roll: L

Coming or Going: L

1 Right Price: W

Balance Game: W

That's too overly played much: L

Swap Meet: L (Very evil prices)


The whole show was a mess. Mike wanted a 2/6 today.

Talk about cheapo prizes in Swap Meet. That fireplace is the same as a laptop?

Seriously, what was that whole showcase about? Not all of them couldn't even dance.

[Guint]

Quick recap:

Let 'em Roll: L ($1,500)
Coming or Going: L
1 Right Price: W
Balance Game: W
That's Too Much!: L
Swap Meet: L

Showcases: Some stupid group of dancers who can't even dance well. Two trips and a Cadillac CTS in the first (which was won), three trips in the second, and a bonus trip, all to see this group. THREE OF THEM WERE TO THE SAME FREAKIN' PLACE (Las Vegas, one LV trip in each showcase, and the bonus trip.)

Gameshowboy, you finished right before I did. Darn, now I feel silly. 

This show was craptacular.

[heelsrule1988]

Yay Fingers! Good to see her again.

The whole thing with Angela was definitely a flashback to the Bob era... I enjoyed that. Good for Drew for milking it like Bob would have.

BEST CONTESTANT OF THE DAY: David
SHOW GRADE: 2

[Chief-O]

First time I watched the show since April Fool's.

Lineup: Meh. Same old I remember. Swap almost seemed to be set up for a win----how could a tablet PC even come close to an LCD HDTV in price?

Showcases: Yeah, what was up?

Mainly watched to examine the directing. Glenn Koch seemed to be playing it safe, running from DiPirro's playbook. Not as smooth, but it is his first aired [and first taped?] show.

Nice to see Fingers [and Frank] in the audience!

[Wayoshi]

Another set of special guests, another short lineup, another show really doomed to fail. Tis a shame.

It's pathetic the budget is so bad Roll is still being set up in this fashion for cheapo cars (on the same show a Cadillac is left wide open, because yes Mike, those trips looked more than 20k without the cash). Just pathetic. Swap was also a bit too evil for the minimum 4k.

I've given up on trying to tell Mike we don't want to watch interpretive dancing, but... who thought offering Las Vegas twice was a good idea??

[Macsen]

As evil as the prices in Swap Meet were, I knew she wasn't winning the moment she picked the designer crap first. The designer crap is never first in that game. In fact, even with the evil prices, I got the order dead on.

Second, actually. His first will be tomorrow.

[SuperSweeper]

THREE OF THEM WERE TO THE SAME FREAKIN' PLACE (Las Vegas, one LV trip in each showcase, and the bonus trip.)

Actually, the bonus trip was to Hollywood (if you can even call that a trip).

[Guint]

D'oh!

Showcases: Some stupid group of dancers who can't even dance well. Two trips and a Cadillac CTS in the first (which was won), three trips in the second, and a bonus trip, all to see this group. THREE TWO OF THEM WERE TO THE SAME FREAKIN' PLACE (Las Vegas, one LV trip in each showcase, and the bonus trip.)

There we go. Good as new. 

[Cartboy]

Let Em Roll:  So close, and yet, so far away, but still $1,500 is better than nothing.
Coming Or Going:  Rats!
1 Right Price, Balance Game:  Nice job!
That's Too Much:  Ho hum.
Swap Meet:  Bummer!

An "ehh" show overall, IMHO.

[Wayoshi]

Second, actually. His first will be tomorrow.

Actually, that expected reverse was a CBS error. This really was his first show.

Also yeah I forgot about Greco... that was... unexpected. Very unexpected.

[elskunkoman]

It was good to see Fingers again. A fine 2 for 6 show today as well.

[3StrikesFan]

Also yeah I forgot about Greco... that was... unexpected. Very unexpected.

Well then, I guess that proves some people's questions to whether Kathy left on her own accord or not. I doubt if she was fired, she would want to come back and sit in the audience.

And what a crappy day to choose to come and watch the show!  

[trytobecharming]

Actually, the bonus trip was to Hollywood (if you can even call that a trip).

And it wasn't included in the grand total for the winner either.
