Dan, let's be fair - at least 2 BRs should have been won this week. It wasn't meant to go this bad.
Even in the 2/20 NYC following the million, 3-4 more should have been won. Continually, contestants just find a way to disappoint a majority of the time in the past few years.

Personally, I can't wait for Roadkill BBQ Week. Please don't feed the trolls... and by trolls I mean Harry Friedman

I am starting to think that the SAME LETTER puzzles are very random and they don't make any sense. They sound cutesy in English, because each word in the puzzle starts with the same letter. Even we native English speakers think they're random, so you're not alone there. Now, translating them to Spanish, on the other hand...that's another story. If we were to take the puzzle from this show--FANTASTIC FUN-FILLED FRIDAYS--and translate it into Spanish... ..."Los viernes divertidos y fantásticos" is the best I can do, at least with a direct translation. If I were to go with an alliterative Spanish puzzle, would LOS VIERNES VIVIENTES work? (For you English-speakers, LOS VIERNES VIVIENTES = LIVELY FRIDAYS)

(For you English-speakers, LOS VIERNES VIVIENTES = LIVELY FRIDAYS) It would be something like "Los viernes fantásticos y llenos de diversión". It is VERY random in both languages. But hey, I can't say anything because Spanish puzzles are extremely more random than the US ones xD

^ Tell me about it. I remember watching a Ruleta episode once where the category was "Titular loco" (Crazy headline) and the puzzle was something like "Man marries a rug".

And because I like being here, I'm not gonna say it. Personally, I can't wait for Roadkill BBQ Week. Please don't feed the trolls... and by trolls I mean Harry Friedman Redneck Couples Week! "So, Jim Bob, how did you two meet?" "Hitched mah waggin' to Jibby's caboose after ah met her at a fam'ly reunion." Go ahead, Wheel. I dare you to use that theme week idea. (I apologize to any rednecks who happen to be reading this -- it's just a joke.)
