Coincidences of the week:

Yesterday's People Puzzler had Stephen from Muffy's initial Chase episode.

Today's Switch had Robert Dmitri, who played with Muffy in the Chase second chance episode.

The other major coincidence, the question with the green code from The Matrix was asked at my pub trivia last night.

Contestant was at the 1 spot with 42 SECONDS REMAINING. Thought Switch was going to have an anomaly this week, but nope. Painful end.
