    I am a 85 young lad.. I wish the answers given would be somehow shown on the screen. Some contestant’s answers speak very fast are very quick and would be nice to understand by showing the answers, not that I know many. Ha.

    Great to have a new season.

    Boy, if you didn’t know the FJ right away you’d be hard-pressed to write 29 letters in the remaining time. That has to be close to a record if they keep such statistics.

    Hope you are well VJ.

    When are the podiums gonna be back to normal again?

    • Kevin Cheng says:

      I don’t think the podiums will be back to normal again. I think everyone likes the changes of the podiums where 3 players are socially distanced.

    What a way to start off the new season with a big win of over 42,000. The audience is back for the first time in two and a half years. Last season was one for the books. Let’s see if we can repeat the same thing again.
