Now THIS is what you call an exciting week of episodes! Our America's Game IV contestants took home a whopping $375,557 in cash and prizes, this week, and is now our highest scoring week, this season, in terms of winnings. We had a whole bunch of highlights from this week, including the Bonus Round wins on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, Grace's comeback win on Thursday, Wednesday's $10,000 Mystery Wedge win, Dave winning over $100K without landing on the top prize envelope in the Bonus Round, Jason's epic Express Run on Friday's game, and Tony returning to play for a second time, and winning the Bonus Round, to boot, where he won over $90K, overall. This is, without a doubt, our BEST week yet, this season. 

Next week was supposed to be UK Getaway Week, and it was also supposed to be a sweepstakes week sponsored by Collette. However, just like Week of Fun!, this week is also being pulled due to the COVID-19 coronavirus concerns. Reruns of Season 36's Bed and Breakfast Week will air in its place, so there will be no recaps from me, next week. 

Please continue to stay safe, everyone, and I'll see you all, the week after next, for Surfin' Safari Week.
