Crushing on Jean

Did the host really give the contestants one thousand bucks in $100 bills that they then just put in their pockets? Did they not just get mugged on their way out of the studio?

I'll bet 100 bux they were traveller's checks - that sponsor placement was too damned sweet.

six years pass...

this new version of the show is ridiculously easy.

like they get such obvious clues for the "I can name that tune in xx notes" part that everybody says they only need one note cos the clue will literally be stuff like "a baby is all that was on this lady's mind in 1992".

I wanna get on this show cos I can pay off all of my student debt

apparently, it is filmed in Australia, and all of the contestants are American expats?

yeah, that's how they get away with a studio audience during a pandemic

I assumed they were older eps sitting in a can for a year or something. But this makes sense

One of the worst trivia nights I went to was a guy just playing songs off his laptop, and whoever among the ~50 people at the bar shouted out the name of the song first (up to the host to decide) got a point for their team. we left pretty quickly
