You sir, have an unfounded hate of people. I suggest you work on this immediately before you continue your tenure as DPG host.

Although, I suppose such unfounded hate is why you were hired in the first place.

From Friendship Feed:

Our review (again early feeds) for the final episode are as follows:

Game 1: R1’s BANKRUPT was way too plenty and that even have the aftereffects in the other quarter. Robin would go on to win the game to trigger the MDBR, and while she lost the semi-biggie (first one all season long), she just missed four spaces to biggie.

Game 2: Now that’s better on the site and Robin yet denied Tony a potential final MDBR (and with that the S4 had a 0-0 record like S1) and leave with a nice total to boot. Pity Neil didn’t have much luck on either half.

Robin was a hoot throughout Pat’s last aired celebrity episode. While the O’s would’ve helped her out in the first Bonus Round, she picked the right letters in the second to end the season on a high note.

The first round of the first match took quite long, and I would’ve spun some more in Round 3 if I were Tony. The second game was more amusing, especially when Neil tried to blow on the wheel after his BANKRUPT. 😂

Interestingly, while Robin chose Phrase for both Bonus Rounds, I would’ve picked What Are You Doing? How ironic that Robin made her selection in the first game after Pat said “pick a phrase.”

My ratings: 5 and 7

And that’s all she wrote for season 4. It was a mixed bag, but overall, a marked improvement from season 3.
