Assuming everything plays out the same, she still would have lost the game. Yes, she’s $10,000 less richer, but maybe a small silver lining.

They are VERY big in the green room about not adding “AND”, but it’s a normal thing to do. Time to see when the media blows up about it.

Recap posted.

I'm surprised it took us this long for someone to missolve in a regular round (not counting Celebrity), but I didn't think it would be from saying AND in a crossword.

I thought CIDER for the second Triple Toss-Up as well. As for the bonus puzzle, I got it with RSTLNE. I was really hoping she could get that first word...

After a year off, Disney's back as a sponsor on Wheel.

Oh Sharon, why did you have to add that AND? Cue people on social media complaining about the not adding anything rule.

And ugh, a painful $100,000 loss in the BR. Who says any animal, let alone a fawn, is gorgeous? I will say I solved it after the A was put up.

I'm gonna list the good stuff first before I get to the obvious.

Firstly, at least they did something different for Disney weeks...a special category strip. Harry Friedman wouldn't have thought of that if he was still around.

This is honestly the most interesting theme around Disney. Vanna's dressed like a princess and we get a 2010's song in a puzzle. Also, first Triple Toss-Up sweep since 9/24. Yay.

And...that's where my positives end.

I know this applies to the whole week, but this seems a bit too heavily promoted (therefore reducing playing time). I'm probably gonna be sick with the words COURAGE AND KINDNESS by the end of the week.

The AND addition in the Crossword - CDixie's right, just ditch 'em already. If Celebrity Wheel got rid of the Crossword, syndie Wheel should have no problem if it means more straightforward gameplay.

Sharon had an opportunity to dethrone Michelle in the Speed-Up (and fully recover from that Crossword blunder), but it wasn't meant to be.

And then...

BR: We were two G's away from a hundred of 'em...I also had it off RSTLNE.

3/10

And now, some other notes...

Michelle's last name is TAFOYA. Yep, the ugly closed captioner is back this week. Also, it's rather interesting to have Pat mention the PP trip be a cruise before the round started.

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.

This wasn’t too magical of a start to Disney’s princess celebration.

I felt bad for Sharon after her Crossword mishap (I solved that puzzle early on), but at least she redeemed herself by sweeping the Triple Toss-Ups. I would’ve said CIDER on TTU2 like Michelle.

And then the BR – hoo boy. I’m impressed that Michelle got FAWN, but if only she picked the G’s…

My rating: 5
