I initially guessed prairie but after that was announced incorrect, I did guess the correct response before it was revealed.

It might help if you’re clear about which episode you’re referring to.

This was for Thursday, 9/24.

I guessed Great Plains, which I knew was wrong.

In an odd twist, in Friday’s game when Ken thanked the viewers of Boston “watching on Channel 4, WBZ”, we weren’t watching channel 4. On Fridays during football season channel 4 shows Patriots preview from 7-8, and WoF and Jeopardy get moved to Channel 38. They know ahead of time what date/day of the week an episode will air when they record it, so it’s strange they made that minor mistake.
