...I don't have a poem for this week. Sorry.

Also, DVR screwed up, so I had to rely on CDixie 's copy. Credit for the contestant names go to an007 as usual.

...well, she initially blows it with GELATIN APPETIZER, but then gets it right with HEALTHY APPETIZER to win the 2022 Audi Q3 Premium ($38,470) from the show's budget this time!

LESLIE’S FINAL TOTAL: $57,902 ($12,400, Wyoming and Audi)

Pat got a job in L.A. in 1977 as a weatherman and they flew him out coach, but it was bumped to first class...and his seat mate was Dolly Parton.

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.

...nobody replied. Welp, that's a historical first for me.

This game was nothing too special, but I wanted Jeffrey to win. Despite the S-U tumble, he was a good player.

BR: Had it off RSTLNE. At least the Audi was won from the show's budget and not from Audi's twitter account.

I did find it amusing that we had a pronunciation missolve AND a "player correctly restarting a solve after they mess up" situation this episode after all the controversy this week. I bet Pat was happy when this taping day ended!

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.

I don't think I want to eat at her house. At least she did solve it, and one night later we have an Audi win this time!

It was the match between Leslie and Jeffrey, but poor Meme just couldn’t catch a break! I felt bad for her.

I no-lettered TTU2 and solved the BR with RSTLNE. Leslie scared me with her guess of GELATIN, but good thing she quickly rebounded for the car!

My rating: 7
