Must See TV! Brain Games with Drew Brees (1 Viewer)

[Madmarsha]

Anybody else see this? We recorded this and just watching now. Never saw this show before but Drew was on season 8, episode 3 on National Geographic Channel hosted by Keegan-Michael Key. Tried to find a link but couldn't. It does get replayed so if you have access to the channel, maybe you can find it.

I unbelievably didn't see this posted already so hope it wasn't as I didn't learn about it here or Twitter or anywhere else. Just found it by accident.

Only found these articles which have a lot of info about the episode ..

I missed it. Saw a video about it on nat geo IG account but forgot to tune in last night

Yes it was on last night and I watched it. Saw the previews and it ended up being a different kind of show than I thought it would be. Drew killed it and that mentalist segment was cool.

Is this on Disney+?

I don't have it but a quick Google seems to indicate that it is. But I included the season number and episode number so it'd be easier for people to find it.

Thanks.

I didn't know when this show aired. I've seen the previews on TV basically everyday but never saw the day it came on. So this helps.

Ah. I assume then they haven't updated yet. Looks like the National Geographic website has Epi. 1 and 2 available right now, so eventually I guess they'll also have Epi. 3 up soon.

I was able to watch it on Hulu. I am finding Hulu to be quite useful for things like this

Yes, that's a good point. They only keep the last 6 episodes or so, but it's available faster.
