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

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

I wonder what Boni Jo was thinking for the first word in Round 3?

CRACKLING CARPIPE was kinda funny. The Triple Toss-Up sweep was nice to watch as usual. Both men were good, even with the CARPIPE miss.

I had absolutely nothing after those picks in the Bonus Round, but there's a good reason for that. For poor categorization, this might be worth an appeal.

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

Inspired by the guys over at Andynwof, I decided to give the next two recaps a decorative look with the colors of the American Flag (obviously gray is used instead of white as the latter makes it impossible to read).

The men had a nice match going, but if John didn't mess up on TTU1, he would've won.

I saw a snippet of the Mystery Round via Reddit and got a good laugh from it.

BR: I only solved it while RSTLNE was coming up (or possibly before it was revealed) because of mechamind 's new avatar. THING would have been a more appropriate category.

SONG TITLE

And yet another song popping up in Taylor Swift's new album (also as a bonus track). This one's kind of related to this week. Hopefully, I'll put up a more well-known tune.

TU1 and TU2 threw me because I couldn't get off WAVING the flag and have NHO a chief petty officer.

I did no-letter the song lyrics.

Was also thrown by D--'- since it clearly wasn't DON'T and I couldn't make another word fit. "Not a bad day's work" -wheel gets only 148 hits on Google.

Finally!

Boy, was it the battle between the two men. While John was a hoot to watch, Brent came from out of nowhere with his Triple Toss-Up sweep.

I no-lettered R2 and solved the BR with RSTLNE (partly thanks to social media). I’m not shocked Brent couldn’t solve this one – maybe adding DOOR before HINGE would’ve given him a fighting chance.

My rating: 6
