Round 3 was definitely something tonight-- Kevin nearly gets buzzed out on almost every letter call then calls D, then for some reason Gina declines the Express and Bankrupts her next spin, then Lezlye also bankrupts to open the door for Kevin to end up winning the round.

Fish Sticks and Trail Mix, another bizarre food combo made up by Wheel for Rhyme Time.

Kevin got just enough help to solve the bonus puzzle, the G was a given but F ended up being a great choice. We're 3 for 3 this week!

The WABC feed started crapping out towards the end of the Mystery Round, so I was forced to use CDixie's copy around that point. Anyway...

Another odd game overall starting with that R2 missolve.

Also, early Speed-Up dings yet again. I get it's a promo week, but still.

Also, R4 doesn't rhyme.

BR: Also RSTLNEd it. Felt that the F call was crucial...and it led to a pretty fun solve.

6/10 (I'm pretty much stuck on that rating now.)

I was making a reference to a joke made on his podcast regarding "booby pictures" and the layout was similar to that.

Yes, I know its five letters but whatever.

R3 was the most Bob Barker like I've seen Pat in a while. I can't really remember a time he was prompting the contestant to be that conscious of the clock, to be fair this entire week feels very tightly edited all the way around.

From the second round onward, this episode was crazy. (No wonder the intros seemed edited!) But all three contestants were fun to watch, especially Kevin.

I thought for sure that R2 was YELLING, just like Gina. And Kevin’s TTU3 solve impressed me, since it could’ve been MAKE. But I just knew the BR solution before the letters showed up. I guess Kevin couldn’t wait to solve it, couldn’t he?

My rating: 6
