Miss Chevious

I can’t stand Rod and Leticia. He a multimillionaire ex-football player who certainly doesn’t need the money. And her with the phony fake eyelashes out to here is one of those contestants that leaves any task remotely taxing to her partner. Why are they even on this show? There’s lots of regular everyday people who could benefit from a million dollar payday way more than these two.

If Liz has so many allergies why did she even go on this show? She acts like not eating for days on end is a new concept. She should have known that going in. What a whiner. Send her home!

I had never heard of two of the celebrity contestants that were on tonight and barely recognized Ray Romano. Mayim is way too giddy, she giggled her way through most of the show. Loved Johnny Gilbert’s reading of the song lyrics category. That voice!

For the 40th Season, some things have been brought back. The white plastic spinner holders are gone now, Pat comes over to the contestants at the end, steps up on the dais behind them and shakes hands again. At the end, bonus round winners can have a friend/family member come up on stage to celebrate with them again. You don't notice some of these things until they're gone or they come back. I wish they'd bring back those action screen backdrops they used to have. The current ones are styled nicely but the other ones are more fun.

She’s always been a shrew but now she’s a confused and subdued shrew. Ugh. Muriel & Doc would be a better couple.

Like someone up thread said, she probably buys them in bulk, lol.

You know what sticks with me after watching this? Chicken casserole. Haven’t made it in a long time. Now I can’t wait to make some. In my vintage Corning Ware baking dish.

I just watched the episode where the Harpers babysit Reverend Meecham’s grandson, Eugene. Little Eugene turns out to be hell on wheels, terrorizing Iola, Vint and especially Mama. A rotten-to-the-core nasty little brat like no other on this show. Fortunately at the end, the Reverend comes back and gives him the spanking he so justly deserves. (Off camera, we only hear audio.) That got me to wondering if that episode would be filmed nowadays. I’m thinking somebody would be screaming “child abuse!” Was his punishment justified?

I’m just up to episode 4 but not sure if I can keep going. It’s just too idiotic. Some examples/observations: 1) Who in the hell lets their little daughter go to a maximum security prison full of killers/child molesters in the first place? I don’t care if it’s Take Your Kid To Work Day, that kind of place is not for kids. 2) How long does it take to install/repair a mailbox? Days, apparently. 3) How many identical Blue Flower Corningware baking dishes does this chick have? 4) Why didn’t the cops check if the girlfriend Lisa actually showed up at her scheduled flight’s destination the next day? That would’ve been easy to check and would’ve at least alerted them to the possibility of foul play if she hadn’t. 5) That gigantic bowl of corks cracked me up. Real closet drinkers don’t want to keep souvenirs of how much they’re actually consuming. A real lush would throw each cork in the trash ASAP as each bottle is consumed. 6) If I hear “Bingo!” One more time, I’m gonna throw up. Do I continue with this foolishness or do I quit while I’m ahead? I haven’t read any spoilers but right now I’m thinking the kid did it.

Xander made a million dollar mistake when he picked Erica to sit out the fire challenge. He underestimated her and should have realized that out of the final four, she was the biggest threat. Erica wasn’t the greatest fire-maker and he discovered that beforehand so he had an opportunity to get her out. That would’ve changed the game completely. But he didn’t play his cards right.

I’m going to miss it.

Woo-hoo! Got 22/22! I knew there were 19 books because I have them all. They are very good. It’s like having extra episodes.

Tonight’s contestant was on the ‘express’ method of solving the puzzle which was Colorful Architecture. She bought all the vowels, called a couple of consonants (at $1000 each) then just abruptly solved the puzzle! She could’ve gotten so much more money by just calling out the letters that she obviously knew! I was aghast that she passed up on getting more money! Do they not check out these people before they become contestants? SMH.

This woman is totally delusional!

She lost me at the molten lava cake.
