When will they be back in studio to start taping season 36? July sometime? They must take some part of the next 8-10 weeks for auditions. Fingers crossed that I get another chance after 2 unsuccessful auditions. Maybe 3rd time will be the charm for me.
late july/early august

auditions aren't only in the off-season, they come around from May-November usually, and have sometimes even gone beyond that. sometimes they do auditions just because the clue crew is in town.

Looks like LA invites are going out. I maintain hope that DC hasn't gone out yet.

I'm surprised the LA ones are going out this quick, but this was a late test. I don't think we've ever seen multiple cities being invited at the same time.

Do they send invitations in multiple waves? A friend of mine in LA got his and I know I passed (36) but I'm wondering if I'm just unlucky...

They have in the past. Not sure if they still do.

I don't see why they wouldn't. First wave, wait a few days and see if everyone gets back to them; then another wave to fill in slots.

No, I've never been on J! I was on WWTBAM in 2000 (as can be seen from my avatar).

I'll remove it. I confused your screen name with someone else.

Noticed Boston emails are going out. I've seen two different tweets about it.
