Hmm... that's weird... according to that NCAA style bracket jpg going around, it says two episodes each day - however my program guide and GSn are both listing "Prejudice?" at 8 pm.

Is this really something you can't figure out?  Each one-hour episode will feature two matches.
This has been another installment of Matt Ottinger's Masters of the Obvious.
Stay tuned for all the obsessive-compulsive fun of Words Have Meanings.

Mea culpa - in this day and age where everything is stretched out to the limit with filler, I naturally assumed that each match was an hour long.

I feel duly honoured that I have been part of another episode of Masters of the Obvious.

I can't tell - does this mean the show is doing well, or badly?

Wondering the same thing myself. I'm gonna be optimistic and suggest it's doing well, since they would want to burn it off if it wasn't.

I'm hungrily wondering, too. But I think the single biggest reason for optimism is that marathon before the finals  -- if Grand Slam was tanking, or even performing flatly, they probably wouldn't try to schedule an entire day of it.

My fingers are crossed it's the biggest hit GSN has ever had! :)

Any chance of getting this up on torrents? I'm going to be GSN-less come August.

Was there an answer to this (that I've missed)?  I--the stupidest man alive--repatched the VCR incorrectly, and I managed to get the video from last night's final match, but no audio.
