Wow! That was a lights-out, kickin’ game! Three affable, engaging contestants, with very few wrong answers. My way of figuring a good game is different from the Coryat, but close. At the first break, $8k is good. First round, $15k, and, after DJ, $45k. This game busted all those benchmarks.
Drew’s unfettered exhibit of joy on getting that Swiftie clue was itself a joy.
I was 2/3 on DD, but missed FJ. I have heard the story before, but said “Netflix”, because I thought the too-close was for Redbox. Oh well! You forget, you lose!
I did about average in the game, but missed the FJ. I mean, I just don’t go surfing onto those dating sites. Anyways, it was another great game!
Drew sure took control early and never wavered.
FJ got me. Both of my daughters met their now husbands via dating apps.
As for me, I met my million-dollar baby in a 5-and-10 cent office.
It hurt a bit when no one knew the most famous Beatles album. Nikki Giovanni clue was pretty obvious. Wanted to say Galveston for 2nd DD till I figured out the alliterative city.
