Isn't this just chump change for Robert?

I knew both Robert and Alfonso from Dancing with the Stars and was pretty sure that Kym (his wife) might have killed him had he not gotten even one of the "...dance lessons" clues considering DWTS is how they met! Good for Robert for coming from behind to win the second game.

Bachelor Chris Harrison cleaned up in the first game and Alfonso was not having it.

Alfonso was a little annoying after the bonus round saying something to the effect that they knew the answer.  I know he was joking but....  And I was thinking, of course you did, you weren't the one standing there under pressure to get it.  It is always different when you are doing the round.

Yeah, I do pretty well answering the puzzles from my living room, but I'm pretty sure I'd be awful if I was ever on the actual show!

I didn't realize how hard it was until playing it on my son's Nintendo switch as competition with others.  When you are on the spot and it is your turn it is so much harder!  Things you know you would get if you were just observing just don't come to your brain when you are playing 🙂

Was the “filmed in December 2020” disclaimer added to all the episodes or just last night? That caught my eye when I saw Chris Harrison was on.

It's probably chump change for all of them, including Pat and Vanna. I really like Robert though.

Wheel is catching some heat today because of Harrison.

Maybe I was just imagining it, but it seemed like they may have edited it to show CH as little as possible. Obviously they had to show him when he was actively playing, but it seemed like he got fewer "other contestant" reaction shots than Robert or Alfonso did.

How annoyed were Donny Osmond and Amber Riley at Jeff Garlin?

[helpmerhonda]

Wow. Jeff Garlin was so very obnoxious.

Wanted to watch for Donny but now I'm glad I missed it.

[seacliffsal]

Although I am glad that Amber won a lot of money for her charity, I really could not enjoy this episode as Jeff Garlin just would not shut-up and most of what he said was nonsense.  I never had an opinion on him prior to this, but, wow, was he desperate to put all of the attention on himself.  So very, very annoying.  I laughed when at one point Donny just told him to spin the wheel and Amber was nodding in agreement.  It's like he held the show and viewers as hostages.

I thought he was kind of funny at the beginning, comparing his level of celebrity with Donny Osmond's, but I admit I skipped/FF'd through a lot that followed.

[Koalagirl]

Jeff Garlin was an out of control freight train.  I’m not familiar with him at all.  Is this his regular shtick or was he drunk?  

[SoMuchTV]

Million dollar winner last night!  I won’t say who, in case anyone decides to go back and watch. 

[seacliffsal]

It was so fun to watch!  However, I kind of wish she had let the other two win more of the money during the second half.  Spread the wealth...

[MsMalin]

Normally I love Jeff Garlic on his various shows but man, I wished he would just stfu. Talk about attention seeking behavior!

So happy to see the million dollar winner!

I know it’s an autocorrect but now I also love Jeff Garlic. 

[lynxfx]

I felt bad for Jason (don't know last name). Hard puzzle to miss $1m on. He was otherwise great. Vivica however...not so much.

[SoMuchTV]

Well, at least they make me feel smart. 

[grandmabegum]

Yes, certainly the amount of guessing letters that were already on the board was an ago boost.

[Maverick]

I think half these contestants are worse in reality than the spoofs in SNL's Celebrity Jeopardy.    Since Trebek and Connery have passed away, maybe they should use this show for a new series of skits.

 Seriously, Garlin needed to STFU.  Did no one try to reign him in between commercials?  

[chediavolo]

Holy shit! Was has Tori Spelling done to her face & was she high?!😳Only  saw the last 5 minutes or so but may have to search on demand to watch in its entirety 

[ByaNose]

I don’t normally watch the celebrity version but I did tonight. Now, I know why I shouldn’t. Marcia Cross has obviously never watched the show before and also doesn’t know her vowels. She asked for a Y as one of her vowels in the bonus round. OMG!!!!!!

[Leeds]

I'm watching an episode with Tatyana Ali, Curtis Stone and Haley Joel Osment.  (Comcast says it's "new" but they say that about fifty year old Star Trek episodes, so who knows.)  Did anyone else find it hilarious that Curtis Stone (whom I love) had no idea what the game was all about for the first half, before someone from production must have told him how it worked?

I found it a little surprising that Pat (apparently) didn't know who Benedict Cumberbatch is!

Apparently hasn't watched Dr. Strange or Spider-Man: No Way Home. 

[Virtual]

Recently gave this a watch on Hulu.

Enjoyed how much of a WoF wizard Jason Alexander was in his episode.

Jeff Garlin was “out there” during his episode. I could only imagine what Pat and the others were thinking during that.

I still have a few episodes to watch yet.

You can say that again!   Hopefully they'll never invite him back.  He was definitely the worst and most obnoxious celebrity that they had on for the season!

[LexieLily]

New season started tonight. Pat doesn't have much use for Snoop, does he?

[MsMalin]

Snoop made the show! Baking onions!

Okay, I tried to watch for Ron Funches and Kevin McKidd's accent, but I don't think I can take much more.

(Edit: I made it 21 minutes. So. much. yelling.)

I was going to watch because of Kevin McKidd's accent but went to check something during the first game and never came back. I at least got to hear Kevin speak in the opening segment so I was good. I was a fan WAY before he was on GA.

I haven't seen him in much outside of GA except for that movie he did with Patrick Dempsey, where his character was conveniently Scottish, and as one of the voices in Brave. I would probably like Dr. Owen Hunt better if he had the accent. ;) 

If it's any consolation, by the time I bailed he hadn't talked much in the game. Kristen Schaal pretty much dominated, at least in the first 20 minutes.

Just watched the most recent episode with Kate Flannery and Austin Creed (I forget who the third celebrity was) and I just need to say that Austin Creed is my new most favorite celebrity.  I had never heard of him before (he's WWF or something) but he was just so fun and kind.  Oh, and he was the big winner.

He's pretty great. He has a really good youtube channel, has a PHD, and is a serious gamer.

Decided I was being too snarky about one of the contestants.

[LexieLily]

Who is this Lunell person and is she always like this?

[LexieLily]

RuPaul, Gayle King, Julie Bowen episode just finished. Had any of these people seen Wheel of Fortune before?!

Gayle kept saying how great she was when watching at home. She knew which color to wear to match her station. I like Julie so glad she did well.

Why can’t they hear me when I’m yelling, if you have a word that ends with N-blank, and you don’t know what anything else is, get the G! Multiple times!

Heh, this comment reminds me of more than one Celebrity Jeopardy contestant landing on a daily double and wagering something like $59.
