Then I shan't read Bubble Bath Man's linked piece until tonight's eppy airs.
I thought J! spoilers were supposed to be no-nos in the press.

J! spoilers are no-nos, but Scrabble spoilers (http://youtu.be/dzLsCVX-RtI?t=1s) are A-OK.

The postscript from the article says that she made one major flub, and "see if you can catch it on Tuesday's show."

She blanked out on a Daily Double, the question was "What is Old North Church?" under the category "True 'North'".  I've definitely seen worse.
