Sorry. Didn’t even know it was on.

“some idiot host said, “We missed you, Jerry” “

Why is this idiotic? He was the host for more years than I’ve been alive.

What, it’s already over?

Jerry used to run this through until Monday evening, didn’t he!?

I guess they also changed it from 24 hours down to ?!?

Not that I watched it, big changes all around apparently.

They announced that they wouldn’t tell a final total until after the tape delay has ended in the Hawaii Time Zone. If that’s the case, don’t expect anything before 5 or 6am Eastern Time.

It is still on the air here (central time zone), so I think they may be tape delaying it by time zone in order to rake in more money.

'During the show's third hour, a marquee near comedian Carrot Top displayed a total of nearly $46 million. But final donation totals won't be tallied until the show goes off the air in Hawaii.'

What saddens me is the billions that must have been collected for MD over the decades and there still no closer to a cure or prevention. I had two close cousins die from it while in their teens. They were sisters.

Brought in more than last year in 6 hours? Don’t know what to say. Hard to accept.

Sounds like the final score was:

MDA 1
Lewis 0

The media is reporting that they raised 61 million dollars in 6 hours and beat last year by 2 million. I find this hard to believe. It was only on from 6 pm to midnight on Sunday.
