He asked contestant coordinator Caryn Lucas to sub for two questions. It has been seen on GSN. Caryn is now an executive producer and writer on the WB's What I Like About You.

Okay.....
I haven't seen the ep in question, but I have to ask:
WHO APPROVED THAT?
I'm sure Caryn is/was a fine sub, but what EP allowed a behind the scenes contestant coordinator to take the reins of a network show?
Part B : Why didn't Gene Wood, who (albeit admittedly had less than a lot) had prior tv exposure, step in?
?
