I'm a savant in some categories but they'd be too specific for this show, like X-Files, or Game of Thrones, or ABC soaps, lol. I would choose mythology if they'd allow it, or classic rock. I loved the Idioms category last night and knew them all, although I'm side-eyeing some of them being idioms (objects in mirror may be closer than they appear??). The few text clues they've had are easier for my brain to comprehend quickly than the picture clues. Some of those are hard to get without context, like a life-sized golf tee, lol, and some are hard to see, period. I could barely make out the white air pods. Anyway, I'm loving everything about this show and hoping Fox renews it. Go Steve!

Cory voted for himself. Kyland didn't get a vote. Cory's on the bubble with Jay, he basically said in this episode that he's only sticking with him for now because Michele has been advocating for him. Now that Jay is pissed at Michele and Cory helped secure Asaf's fate with his burned vote, I expect to see Cory be the next of Jay's alliance to go if they're in a similar position as this episode. Ed and Emanuel will be pushing hard for it of course I just hope, now that teams are done so presumably only one daily winner will have safety, that the other side will be able to finally send Jay's smug mug home. I'm at the point where I can't stand looking at him.

Yes, it seems Emily succeeded in convincing him that Julie would be the target for the four non-Rebas, and that the Reba 4 would be splitting their votes between Bruce and Jake, in which case, numbers-wise, Bruce wouldn't need to play his idol. Emily said in her interview that was her strategy. When they showed the votes at the end, 3 Rebas voted for Jake, with Julie voting for Bruce, so if Emily had been sincere and not simply gaslighting Bruce, Julie would have indeed gone home. It will be interesting to see if Emily takes credit in the immediate aftermath for her part in Bruce not playing his idol, possibly risking Julie's ire, or keeps that nugget in her pocket for a potential F3 speech.

Uh, no. The only person who would claim that is Monte himself, lol. Not to get too off topic but that couldn't be further from the truth, Taylor 100% earned her victory and the jury was genuinely thrilled for her, not "bitter" towards Monte, who was pretty meh and kind of forgettable on BB just like he was on the Challenge. Josh, yeah I'll give you that one, lol. Paul lost more than Josh won.

I was embarrassed for the show, embarrassed for the houseguests, but most of all embarrassed for myself for watching it. No one looked amused.

This article someone else linked here previously explains that the contestants must be "directly" related to their celebrity relatives. It implies they made an exception for Carly. They probably couldn't resist the Tom Hanks connection, to the point where they basically sabotaged her with the obvious clues, lol. https://people.com/claim-to-fame-rules-contestants-have-to-follow-7642217

You might think so, but no, Styx isn't yacht rock. Awhile back, without knowing the precise definition but having a vague sense of it, I told my co-workers that yacht rock was "schlocky music from the late 70s and early 80s". They were kind of offended, lol. When I think of the epitome of a yacht rock artist Christopher Cross comes to mind. Oh, here you go, this is pretty interesting: https://www.houstoniamag.com/arts-and-culture/2019/07/this-is-the-definitive-definition-of-yacht-rock

I hear you, On Demand is a last resort for me. If you don't want to wait till tomorrow, you can try ABC's site. It was commercial free for me. You have to sign in with your provider, but they accept streaming providers also, not just cable.

That was Reilly and Jag.

Not gonna lie, I was pretty excited Pluto is streaming live feeds since I haven't watched them since SEASON 2. So far all I'm getting on like 3 different cameras is Red and Cameron having a very earnest conversation about burping. Red can burp at will. Cameron knows people who can't burp. Or something. I turned the TV off. Live feed recappers are the unsung heroes of civilization.

Right? Lol. Almost unfair when you have A-listers likeTom Hanks and Alicia Keys where one clue gives them away, then you have Olivia, whose relative could have had the whole wall filled with clues about her and she still would have flown under the radar! If she'd won, Carly would have been so mad, lol.

We came so close to getting two wrong guesses in a row! Dang. Although I'm glad Cole went for the sure thing. It was his only smart option. Everyone else's faux outrage and exaggerated shock is ridiculous, they all would have done the same. It's fascinating watching them interpret clues incorrectly and then see everyone's confirmation bias kick in. Gabriel even chimed in with his story of how Jeff Gordon was so popular with his mom's friends in North Carolina because he was from there. Only Jeff Gordon is from California, lol. He moved to Indiana in high school but he never lived in the south. So, sheep: Dolly, shrimp: Tom Hanks, tire: Dale jr, planet: Neil diGrasse Tyson, cheese: Cole, burger, Gabriel (who gave away his relative in his interview by saying it was Good Burger), and for the rest I have no clue. Which of those remaining is Eddie Murphy or Chris and Hugo's relative? Speaking of Hugo, did anyone figure out his clue? It looks like "commander in chief who farms ??" I can't tell what those last two circle things are supposed to be. They don't look like peanuts, lol.

Oh yeah, good catch. Cup driver is more accurate than champion. Dale Earnhardt jr was wildly popular and a great driver but he never won the cup championship.

"Mr. Blue Sky" by ELO barely charted in the US. The 70s are my decade and I feel like I know ELO's catalog pretty well, but I didn't recognize it at all. Boo to the show for that one. As for "Layla", it's one of my favorite songs of all time, but I was barely able to get it with that weird clip they chose. I felt for Heidi when she was all, "Layla?? I know that song!" I was super happy she pulled it off at the end so they could win some decent cash. They impressed me with their breadth of knowledge and their quickness.

You are right! I corrected my post above. He said he lied about his brother winning a championship, not that he lied about his relative being his brother.

Yes!! How could I have forgotten Jimmy Carter? Hugo even looks like a Carter.

I wrote them down also but thanks for filling in the gaps for the contestants who didn't reveal all three on camera. Interestingly, every celebrity relative was reported to be a man. I'm sure some will turn out to be women. I also took notes as to which reveals were truths or lies as stated in their talking heads, but now I'm wondering if they're allowed to lie to the audience also? Because JR said that his relative being his "brother" was the lie, but that would mean that the relative is a singer who's won an NBA championship ring. How can both those things be true? lol FWIW, here are the lies/truths as stated in their interviews: Chris: "singer" is true. Either father or star in Hollywood walk of fame is a lie. JR: "brother" is a lie, so singer and NBA championship ring are true. (may need to go back and check the tape on the one!) -EDIT - upon rewatch, JR said he lied about his brother winning an NBA championship. So, brother and singer are true. Oops! Hugo: "athlete" is a lie, so grandfather and Nobel peace prize are true. As mentioned above, he said his relative was once the most powerful man in the world. If grandfather is true, he can't be Bill Clinton's relative. I don't want to google Nobel Peace price winners but it should be easy to narrow it down. Kissinger and Nixon seem too old. (I know someone posted the answer above but I don't want to look 🙈) EDIT: Hugo actually said Nobel prize, not peace prize. But he did say the most powerful man in the world, so the speculation still fits. Gabriel: "athlete" is a lie, so brother and NAACP award are true. Carly: just Wow. Did you catch that her final screaming rant was about her lack of screen time? 😂 First thing that popped into my head:

Now that all 18 are revealed, there is another over 40: Julie, 49. So will she be first boot, or F3 zero vote-getter?

Not to mention hotter! Love his straight hair in 1997, gives me Jackson Browne vibes.

I don't know know, maybe I'm wrong and a cash prize was mentioned in the beginning, but in the finale Nick didn't mention money to Dom and Georgia, just the trip. However, since the "where are they now" video came out on youtube a few days ago, there's evidently been drama between Georgia and Dom, including Dom posting screenshots of Georgia's texts (super long story, you can read about it on the Perfect match subreddit) and in one text she mentions that Netflix was giving them $5,000 (in lieu of the trip they didn't take, maybe?) and that Chase was advising her to hold out for more and she was wanting to know if Dom was on board. I don't know which is more hilarious, Netflix being so cheap or Chase being Georgia's financial advisor, lol.

I loved this trainwreck of a show. I wish it had shown up here on Primetimer from the get go and been a full fledged topic with episodes so we could dissect it and talk shit about everyone in real time, but glad it's here now. I had to laugh that throughout the show there was never any mention of what the prize would be, and then it turned out to be just a trip. Lame. A trip the winners didn't even take because they broke up too soon, lol. I watched Perfect Match concurrently with season 8 of Are You the One, the sexually fluid season (which was awesome). Kariselle (she went by Kari) was one of the cast. When Francesca made that comment that there should be a show where everyone is bisexual, I was hoping Kariselle would go, "there was, and I was on it!" Missed opportunity. Netflix released a short "where are they now" video on youtube. Shocker, no one is still together, lol

She's another great aunt - listed on IMDB as Millie Mayfair (which I knew from the book as well), but it's infuriating that she never even gets a NAME in the show. There was a Millie Mayfair listed on the gravestone Rowan was looking at, the one that had her own name on it. So Millie (I didn't know her name either) must be a ghost that only Carlotta can see and communicate with? Kinda odd that someone as ultra-religious and supernatural-hating as Carlotta pals around with a ghost.

I feel the same. I heard the news yesterday at our office holiday party, of all places. I was completely stunned. Like you said, it's very hard to process. When you hear of a celebrity passing, obviously it's sad, sometimes it's shocking, but this ... just doesn't compute. It's just so awfully tragic to contemplate the pain that must have been inside him, when he radiated such joy, love, and light.

I noticed that at the start of the leg, when they were all looking at the maps and discussing their routes, that D & C/L & M were going to take the A-20, which appeared to be a highway going straight from Domme to Toulouse. Maddie said they were going to take a road that started with a T, which she said looked to be the most straightforward route, but I'm thinking taking that route must have been their downfall. It was perhaps more of a surface street with stop signs, side streets, etc, as opposed to a highway. Claire said on hers and Derek's video from last episode that their maps had town names and highway names, but the streets themselves weren't labeled, so it was pretty difficult to navigate. I'm sad about Quinton and Maddie also but I realized while watching this that I like all the teams. It definitely seemed like laying the bricks would have been faster than memorizing the French poem. It was hard to tell, the way this episode was edited. I cracked up when Aubrey said of David, "he's fluent in English and Spanish, so he'll do well at memorizing this French poem". First of all, I don't think being fluent in English counts, Aubrey 😂. Being fluent or a native speaker of Spanish may give you a slight leg up in learning French since they're both Romance languages, but not that much IMO. Spanish words are pronounced exactly as they appear, while French words ... are not, lol. Still, they ended up getting it on their second try, so kudos to them.

She's a dead ringer for Roseanne Roseannadanna, lol:
