Hollywood Game Night Gives Yvette Nicole Brown An Episode Worthy Of Her Gifts
Too many showcases for Hammy Jane. But still.
Most Instantly Regretful Of Her Life Choices
This might just be the face Joely Fisher makes when she's concentrating very hard.
But the first game hasn't even started yet and she already kind of looks like she wants to kill herself. (She ends up being a solid player, as we will see. You got nothing to worry about, Fisher! But also, like, maybe wear your glasses next time? IDK!)
Most Redeeming Song Sung Wrong-er
As I cannot stop saying: Song Sung Wrong is an embarrassingly transparent platform for host Jane Lynch to involve herself in the games, which, just give the hosting job to someone else and come back as a player. That said: it's nice that it gives the world a chance to learn...
...that Yvette Nicole Brown is not just a great game player but also a pretty great singer!
Most Entertainingly Collaborative Game
Pic A Name is still fun to watch for the chaotic guessing it inspires among teammates...
...even if, as Joe said on the podcast, A PICTURE OF A TOILET NEVER MEANS YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO GUESS A PERSON WHO MIGHT BE NAMED "TOILET."
Worst Choke
This is a pretty solid group of celebrity players, so it takes a while for the weak link to make herself known.
Oof, Abby Wambach. OOF.
Most Efficient Round, Runner-Up
It doesn't happen often that a Back To Back round runs out of words before it runs out of time.
...er, hands-in-front half only.
Most Efficient Round
Was there any question Yvette Nicole Brown would kill this, whichever other celebrity she played with?
No. There was not. Good guessing, Daniel -- but more importantly, good picking.
