Drew, Elisangela DIDN'T clean up today; it would've been appropriate to have said that if she had also won the Jeep playing Let 'Em Roll.

Just a few thoughts....

I'm going back and forth on taking a second roll or taking the $2500. :) I probably would have gone for it like the contestant did.


$16649 for the car in One Away just didn't look right. And it wasn't.


I suppose I can understand why Drew would laugh at the end of the show, but the reasons behind spaying and neutering pets are serious. Makes me wonder about how sincere he is about the cause, or if he just says the line every day because he thinks it's just tradition.


So nice to hear the music played for the fourth item up for bids again. :)

Meh... very lethargic show. Where was the cash game?

Drew was laughing at the end because he wished the TV audience good luck with their babies.
S5x... the show's stabilized into something decent now, I guess...

Both extra rolls shoulda been won in let em roll. Switch was really easy, cliff hangers Jayme musta been insane to say that tub was 45 dollars. Eazy was easy today. One Away could have been won Safe Crackers was evil. I thought the price for the monitors were 540.
pepe! It took us all summer to clean out all the skunk stink from seasons 36, 37, 38, 39, and 40!!!

I realize that the show's theme dictated what type of prizes we'd see, but almost all baby-related items is still rather dull.

2nd place, 2011 CSS playoffs.     QSW, 3/27/17, 1/15/18. Exacta, 5/14/21.

Big kudos to Stan for the fourth one-bid music.  That bell variant of the main theme was from the '72 pack, and fit really well with the "nursery" theme.

A minivan.  When was the last time they offered one of those?

(This would have been a real fun FPG day.)
They can be close at the top, too.

Safe Crackers was evil. I thought the price for the monitors were 540.

There were two possible (reasonable) guesses, as there always are in "Safe Crackers."  I don't think there was anything evil about it.

Big kudos to Stan for the fourth one-bid music.  That bell variant of the main theme was from the '72 pack, and fit really well with the "nursery" theme.

I completely agree with you regarding the music fitting well.  I wish they would realize that, even though the cues are old, they can still fit in with the newer ones.

A van and a station wagon, on the same show!   8-O

(I'm surprised no one has yet mentioned One Away yet. Looks like I get dibs.  ;))

Good:
-MAJOR PROPS to Stan for the '72 cue. Moar, please.
-MAJOR PROPS to whoever decided that Drew should turn the trilons in One Away once again.
-Minivan in the showcase.

Bad:
-Having a baby shower show. Well, you had to expect it. :P
-Cliff Hangers. My god, that was an awful playing.
-Doing 2-trip Switch?. Fine on any other day, but do you really think someone is going to take a trip while pregnant, even if it's in Southern California?

Let 'em Roll: 3rd "grocery item" wasn't as evil as past ones, but formula is usually expensive so going "more expensive" wasn't really a surprise.  The dice took it from there.

Switch?: Pricing those SoCal trips is pretty much a coin toss: I'm pretty sure that the Palm Springs trip has been the more-expensive trip in past playings which have also featured a seaside trip.

CliffHangers: Yes, the baby items are deceptive price-wise, but that was still quite painful and unexplainable.

Eazy as 1-2-3: VERY eazy indeed.

One Away: Just plain evil.  Even if she kept the 8 instead of changing it to 6, I can't think of anyone who would've changed the 9 to 7.  Meant to be lost.

Safe Crackers: Bring back the door reveal!  The other easy game of the day.

...Oh...

To be honest, I and all in chat must have been half-asleep to miss that a model wasn't assisting OA. Watch this be a one-time thing...

I know that only baby items for a show is dull considering that there are people that don't like baby items on the show.

It felt like Gwendolyn was everywhere today and it figures - there were only two models today. I guess Drew had to do some work as a result.

Does it bother anyone else that most (all?) of the contestants chosen to come up on stage were from California?  Not only that, but in the immediate area surrounding Los Angeles.  I mean, if that's the best the staff can do, then it shows how many people actually care about a "special" like this.

It's bad enough if they offer one trip to the area surrounding Los Angeles area...now they have to offer two!  So you have people from the surrounding area, playing for a trip to essentially their home.  Ugh.

Cliff Hangers was played horribly.  I guess karma payed Jayme back on the wheel, by spinning 2 nickels.

Thank you, Drew, for actually turning the trilons in One Away for a change.  It makes the game flow much smoother.

That was a good win in Safe Crackers.  With the prize value as it was $x,x40, I'm surprised they didn't select $540 for the monitors.
