As it turns out, the Wild Card would be used when pigs fly.

Peter won't be taking an extra long time to pick one of three categories:

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

For the bonus puzzle, he picks Thing.

...so we have to put the MINI Cooper back. Peter is heading out with $17,200 in cash.

In the final segment, Pat says he might be in trouble at home. Going back to Tina being an organizer, Lesly Sajak is actually good at keeping a beautiful house, but when you open a drawer (if possible)...on second thought, Pat's gonna stop there.

I'm not sure I would consider the Pro Football Hall of Fame (or any sports Hall of Fame) to be a Landmark, but whatever. Nice to see a rare category show up.

I could eat a HOUSE and then Pat saying he wouldn't recommend eating either was great.

Who said anything about ultra?!

Ugh, an easy bonus puzzle that should've been solved.

Honestly, a rather frustrating episode to begin the week thanks to some questionable moves and missolves.

BR: I’m surprised he had nothing after his picks. I thought it was a slam dunk after that point.

This is a 4/10, tops.

The Florida trip not won was to the Beacon Hotel (worth $7,000).

This is why we watch. Not only for the gut punch, but the random acts of insanity that make you cheer for total strangers, the brothers doing "YMCA," or the wife jumping into her husbands arms which led to the greatest ad lib between Pat & Vanna, etc, etc, etc).

There's a reason this show has been on so long.

I'll never quit watching. Hopefully, you won't either.

Captioning name misspellings: Peter's last name is Matsoukas, not "Mantzoukas".

There was a minor upgrade to the intro starting with this episode. In the second shot, with the scrolling pictures of Pat and Vanna, the background behind the tiles was originally black. This shot now has an orange and yellow gradient background, and the colored light beams seen along the sides of the tiles are brighter. The black background used for the first two weeks was probably unintentional.

Now can they please bring back the superior remix that was only used for two episodes last week?

Tina and Peter had a decent match between them. And Krishna was quite the polite contestant, saying “please” after every letter.

I got R2 and R3 early on and the BR with RSTLNE. I don’t think the first word of the latter puzzle was necessary, but I’m surprised Peter had no guess for that round.

My rating: 6
