Not surprisingly, these questions were easy enough that I imagine most of us boardies could have gone through them without a lifeline. I'm not a big fan of having the celebrity's companion be able to provide as much help as possible. Need I say it? Nihil obstat®.

No, the pop culture questions would have had me burning lifelines at $4K and $16K. Maybe even $125K, since I was torn between Argo and Lincoln.

As for valuing a question about postal abbreviations at a whopping $64K... :roll:



BTW, thanks to whichever member of the BBTranscriptTeam came through for this episode, after such a long hiatus.

Indeed. I was prepared to do the transcripts when I found someone had already done them.

Yes, thanks. And for the Nihil obstat® - wouldn't be the same without it! :D

Good Lord.

Other than the 16K question, on which I'd have needed help, I would've breezed through this without breaking a sweat.

Trust me, if I could get through the 250K question like that, these questions are nothing for someone fairly adept at pop culture.

I guessed correctly at $4k and otherwise had no trouble. --Bob
