potatoes, whether or not they are glowing.

The family played pretty well, and at least they believed grandpa on the Roosevelt question, but mom should have gone with what she clearly already knew on the phenylalanine question, instead of asking the audience. That would have saved the audience for the potato question, which they should have gotten right, since it's common knowledge. That would have saved Ken for the Hard Rock question, which seemed pretty obvious. It would have left PAF and Double Dip for the $1 million question, but I guess we'll never know what might have been.

They could have gotten the next Q right, too, if they had applied a bit of logical thought to the choices. Perhaps they were caught in the "it can't be the logical answer for this much money" trap.

In one nice change from previous families, granddad seemed to be the strongest player on the team. Mom was okay, but she seemed to be fixated on "Are you 100 percent sure?"

Hard Rock

Holy Smokes were those questions easy. And I'm a relatively unintelligent person and I would've needed no help until the Hard Rock. You guys have talked previously about stacks designed to give away money maybe for higher ratings. If there is such a thing then this has gotta be one of them...actually I prob. would've ATA on the potato question, but these weren't educated guess questions these were "knew the answer before any choices were up" questions down the line.
