First of all, thank you to a someone who moved the rest of the S37 recaps to the S37 sub-board...except for the entire recap review of said season. Someone also needs to move that to the same sub-board.
Well, it's the start of the new season with a brand new EP. I'll explain any other changes that happen along the way, but I'll tell you that until it is safe to travel again, all contestants will be from the SoCal area from now on. That, and there will be NO studio audience, not even the contestant's guests. Also, there will be some rather interesting camera angles due to all of the set changes. Click here to see the other changes that I listed below. With that out of the way, let's a go!
EPISODE #7231: 👨🏫TEACHER'S WEEK👨🏫
AIR DATE: 9/14/20
This Week's Tape Date: August 6
Pat himself addresses the changes to this season regarding COVID regulations. And yes, he does calls it "The White Thing". No new intro for this season, sadly.
$1,000 Tossup: What Are You Doing?
_ _ _ C H I _ _ / A
N _ _ / C O _ R _ _
The category strip’s a bit lower & the board's now zoomed in more.
Conner isn't really TEACHING A NEW COURSE currently, but he's right anyway. Here's our first contestants of the 38th season...
Conner Ayres: West LA (orig. from Indianapolis, IN). Spanish teacher for 7 yrs. at New West Charter HS. Also one of the triplets in his family (one's a female).
Jolena Lomax: Compton. Computer science & history teacher for 25 yrs. who's married to Donald w/ 4 children.
Amanda Bartlett: Lakewood. Kindergartener teacher, center director & health/safety director. Married to Jesse w/ a stepdaughter. Also has a big family (sister, mom). Used to be a skater, but now does it just for fun.
Prior to the next tossup all this week, a promo for next week's "Make Life Sweeter" giveaway is shown sponsored by the app "Cookie Jam". Enter the bonus puzzle each night next week for a chance to win $10,000 courtesy of said app (only 5 will win). I'm still not a fan of shoving the plug over here.
$2,000 Tossup: Person
E D I T _ _ -
A _ - L _ _ G E
I'm the EDITOR AT LARGE here and Conner has tripled up.

W E / H _ V E / S _ _ E

Well, WE HAVE SOME CATCHING UP TO DO regarding the long wait for this season, don't we? Anyway, Conner makes a hat-trick and secures the sparkly green thing.
Duds: R (Conner), B (Amanda)
DQ: Jolena's R repeat
Pre-Round 2 Scores:
Conner: $5,400 + MDW
Jolena: Spinning Next

$100,000 Cookie Jam Bonus Round
Once again, we begin this season with a luxury car available all this week: the all-electric 2020 BMW i3 120ah. Pat's far apart from Jolena (he's near the smaller video board) and he walks over to pick up the envelope on the E in AMERICA'S.
RSTLNE:
_ _ _ _ L _ R
_ _ _ S
Contestant circle's larger.
HGDA:
_ _ _ _ L A R
_ A D S
Contestant's letter picks are now shifted slightly to the left.
Jolena first says SOLAR PADS, then goes PADS, MADS, FADS, before stumbling into the right answer of POPULAR FADS at the 3-second mark! And for the third season in a row, we begin with a car win in the form of the BMW worth $47,745, giving her a grand total of $68,945 cash & car!
According to Bobby McBride, this BMW i3 comes with Moonroof and Harmon Kardon surround sound system.
Closing Chat: Pat talks a bit more about the apparatus.
The final logo now has that bars with the annoying fanfare removed and is displayed as SONY PICTURES TELEVISION STUDIOS in a more generic font with the last word on the bottom row.
Personal Rating: 8
Welp, one down, 194 to go for this season. I have a feeling that it’s gonna be a great one. I might appear later this season! You'll never know!
