DING-DING! DING-DING!

Jim's giving the Final Spin. Vowels are worth nothing, but consonants... $700 + $1,000 = $1,700.

Jim: L ($3,200)
Tiki: N ($1,700 | I... no.)
Lauren: H (x2 - $3,400 | I BLOAT IN THE NIGHT)
Jim: I (x3 | A GLITH...)
Tiki: M ($3,400 | A GLITCH IN THE MACHINE, A GLITCH IN THE MEGGING)
Lauren: R ($5,100; she tried to solve without calling a letter)

The Prize Puzzle was spoiled in a clip posted on the social media pages. Although it's the first time since 2002 that a four-row puzzle is used in the same round as the $5000 wedge, it is also a puzzle that gets zero results on Google in quotes.

You forgot to add in the R1 puzzle solution layout (for Game 2), so I added that in for you.

All I have to say about this episode is that Lauren's easily the most antagonistic player of the bunch, Tiki has some very strong spins and Jim...well, at least he learnt from his mistakes from Game 1.

That was a terrible prize puzzle too.

I have no idea how I whiffed on the first BR, but I easily solved the second with RSTLNE.

7/10

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.

Interesting set of celebrity episodes.

It’s great to see Tiki return to the show and win more than he did 21 years ago. He ironically impressed me in the BR, and I’m glad we got a win to kick off the season, taping-wise.

Lauren almost had me on the floor with her missolves, especially I BLOAT IN THE NIGHT. 😂 Good thing she called another letter in the Final Spin of the second game (rather than just solve the puzzle).

I’ve never heard of Jim until now, but he had me rolling throughout the episode. 😂 His late BANKRUPT in the first game hurt; good thing he learned from that error in the second game.

I couldn’t get the first word of the first Bonus Puzzle, but BGHO would’ve been the perfect combo for Lauren in her BR (which I solved with RSTLNE).

My respective ratings: 7 and 6

THE Wheel Genius (but not the only one)
