*Showcase Winner

Comments

*There was only one big winner on tonight's episode: Catherine, thanks to the nearly $60,000 showcase she won. Other than that, tonight's episode was dissapointment after dissapointment. Triple Play was lost, the $25,000 wasn't won in Punch-A-Bunch, the trailer and Cadillac Deville in Grocery Game and That's Too Much were not won and $100,000 wasn't won in either Showcase Showdown. Despite these depressing moments, the show was still pretty good.
*Triple Play: Last week, Golden Road was lost prematurely. This week, the same fate happened to Triple Play. How depressing.
*Punch-A-Bunch: That brita pitcher seems to be popping up in every single primetime special?.
*Race Game: Somewhat difficult. Christopher had a good strategy only changing two prices at a time.
*Grocery Game: The hardest game of the night, even though four of the grocery items were pretty cheap.
*That's Too Much: Fairly easy. The big gap between the seventh and eighth was a dead give away to stop at the eighth price.
*In six of the ten showcase showdowns of the armed forced primetime specials, a contestant won at least $1,000. The Big Wheel sure is hot!
*The $100,000 donation by The Price is Right and CBS was very classy.
