Sadly though Hoot put up a good fight he lost on the million dollar question. He was the first person to get all the way to the million dollar question without using any cheats though. And he got jeff a couple of times with jokes the way Jeff usualy gets contestants. It was classic hoot and his wife former astronaut Rhea Seddon was also there. great show

I wish I could have watched it, but I was a little busy yesterday. It will probably be on again though eventually.

It should be streaming on the Fox web site.

Alas, that site is only for Americans...

If it plays again could someone please let me know a day or two in advance so I can get my parents to record it?

That's right, I forgot you're in Canada.

Thanks for the link. I only have internet at work and I don't think they would be too happy about me downloading this 'override' software. Maybe I can view this at my parents' or brother's place though, so thanks again!
