Bridget ($11,200) hits DD #1 within Music History for $1600; Sandy’s 2nd w/ $9800 & Michael’s still well in last w/ $2200. Her next wager’s $5.5K.

“Who is Cabot?”…no- he was Hudson. While going Around the World for $1200 to reveal DD #2, Michael ($5400) is now in this game & could take the lead over Sandy, who stands at $9800; Bridget’s 2nd at the time w/ $5700. $3K is the risk Michael makes.

We have had quite a run on not getting 5x Champs. Seems this game is getting tougher and tougher since Trebek left. New champ Sandy hit F! wrong but still assumed the crown. 1 DD missed.
Rating – 7 of 10 (winning show)
“Seems this game is getting tougher and tougher since Trebek left.”
Definitely the reason why I stopped watching this show religiously.
I’m holding out for Reading Rainbow Guy (week of July 26th).
‘A petition asking the show’s producers to select Burton (as the new regular host) was signed by over 240,000 of his fans.’ – Wikipedia.
Also still the record holder for Celebrity Weakest Link, $167,500 for Junior Achievement of Southern California, in the original show’s ‘Star Trek’ special. Only a second-chance episode for previous vote-offs managed to top that ($188,500).
