    Nothing baffling about this show…the women did get some cash (the Trust thankfully didn’t get much), but Big Winner Blake gets the keys to our final car giveaway of the day, along with the week’s first BR and Jackpot win. Now let’s see if the rest of this week turns out like this one.

    Rating8.5 of 10 (Winning Show)

    With no further cars to be won (and I really do mean it this time), we segue into the 3-hour THE VOICE finale, with final day results to follow after 11 PM ET.

  2. Blake cleaned up nicely thanks to his big EXPRESS run after a modest first half, and his Infiniti win in the BR was well-deserved after it was unclaimed last night!

    And you don’t need that signaling device outside of the Toss-Ups, Susan. 😂

    My Rating: 8 (B-) (maingame could’ve been better)

    Blake picked things up with his Express run, and good thing he figured out the BR in time for a big jackpot.
