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

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

^ I know, right? I noticed that too. Anyway, I was able to quickly RSTLNE tonight's Bonus Puzzle because nothing says a winnable Bonus Puzzle like one that has been used before.

This was another "don't want to touch the wheel" night and two bad missolves with Jurassic Park BODIES and SWEET Cookie.

Pat's exchange with Tenaya after she hit the Express wedge was funny.

What was with the scores not being shown being the Speed-Up. It made the shot of the contestants look really weird. I was surprised how long it took them to solve Venus Flytrap.

I solved the bonus puzzle, but it was a bit tough without more in the second word. Too bad she didn't call A or B.

Didn't get the chance to watch due to family stuff for the rest of the week (not what I PM'ed about happening a month from now), but I skipped to the bonus puzzle after germanname1990 commented. I went with HURRYING AWAY, but I got it once the C was revealed.

Recaps will be on hiatus as of May 27, 2024 due to life changes.

Recap posted. mechamind had every right to avoid this episode.

Sigh…I’ll go cry in the corner right now.

BR: Needed her picks to solve this one (I was so sure it was going to be CARRYING AWAY).

I almost never give out 1/10 ratings, but in this case, I had to. This personally broke me.

My dear gracious, this episode was nothing short of a mess! At least the contestants had me cracking up, especially Tenaya and Brian.

I solved the BR with RSTLNE. Maybe an A would’ve helped Lindsey here.

My rating: 3
