Just noticed, starting June 8, Master Minds airs *2* new episodes a day, which explains why they added the 8:30pm airing where it should've been a rerun from 3 weeks prior. Since there are 65 episodes produced for this season, they're strategically saving #2065 for the Season finale(and possibly the current series title finale), instead of having the Season finale on July 3, the season finale is now June 19 with no word on when it'll be renewed. If it does, then the GSN On-Demand app will be dropping all of the current season episodes of Master Minds for a new season of episodes on the On-Demand app. I wish Best Ever Trivia Show/Master Minds can make it to GSC, air them in taping order and put that show in the Pluto On-Demand.

Folks, the GSN On-Demand app is not doing a good job of keeping their currently aired Originals episodes, the On-Demand app dropped the first season episodes of Common Knowledge after only 27 episodes and they also dropped the second season episodes of America Says from their app after only 35 episodes and the Best Ever Trivia Show was dropped from the app after only 25 episodes. It just shows that once an Original leaves the schedule, it leaves the On-Demand app as well.

Master Minds concluded its "first" season last Friday. If I recall correctly, the final episodes of BOTH Best Ever Trivia Show and of the current season of Master Minds ended with a bonus round winner.
I don't recall the BETS winner coming back on Master Minds, which I found irritating. (I recognize this could be due to lack of availability on the part of the contestant.) I am curious whether the current reigning champ will be invited back for the eventual next season.

The last Best Ever Trivia show winner did come back on Master Minds, several weeks into the season IIRC

Hey guys! Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but if not- I apologize! I appeared on the May 4 episode of Master Minds (S1E21) and won the contestant portion but lot to Ken in the final round (still kicking myself- I knew I was wrong the instant I spoke!) But I have yet to receive my winnings, which are supposed to be paid out by 120 days after airdate, and all attempts to contact GSN have earned zero responses. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks so much in advance!

COngrats on winning the $1K, my dear. Perhaps COVID is partly responsible for them not getting the money out in a timely manner.

>>>COngrats on winning the $1K, my dear.

Or at the very least, wouldn't they have set an auto reply to the Prize Solutions email address explaining that? Other GSN email addresses have them, as I discovered when I tried emailing their 'main' email address. I don't mean to sound mercenary or ungrateful: it was a wonderful experience all around (Brooke is a delight!), don't get me wrong! But I'm now unemployed and that money would really come in handy

I'm not sure what the production company is for the show or who works on it offhand. Game SHow Enterprises is the packager.

Last week, Kelly Gerhold became the first contestant to win the bonus round enough times in a row to become an expert on the show. THey lowered the number of bonus wins required for that from three to two for this season. Kelly's mom Wendy Gerhold was on Scrabble in 1988 and CLassic Concentration and the CC TofC in 1990.

Yesterday, a contestant named Cliff (not sure of the last name) became the second contestant to win the grand prize twice and he became a master mind. Unlike the last person though, he actually beat the other master minds to make it to the final round where just now, I feel there's a little controversy.
The score was tied 3-3 entering the final round and it came down to a food question. Cliff guessed lobster while the contestant competing for the $10k guessed ostrich eggs. The answer was eggs, but it was counted wrong and he ultimately lost on the ultimate trivia question.
Not sure if anyone else watched this episode. For those who did, do you feel that the judging here was a little too strict and they should've given it to the civvie? I know not all eggs are the same, but I still think he was close enough that they probably should've given it to the guy.

Hmmm... Exit one expert, enter another. Read the comments for what seems like a hint, too.
