Does anyone else think that the information posted on Wikipedia was bogus? I'm starting to think so, we've waited long enough and we haven't heard a thing about it...its been almost 4 months since the episode was supposedly "taped" what does everyone else think?

I'm still keeping my hopes up. These episodes air LONG after they are taped, so it's still a possibility.

I read an article about two weeks ago stating that one of the contestants, whose episode was aired on that week, had his episode filmed on early October (I don't remember the link to the article, but you might be able to find it in Google News somewhere). I was hoping that the episode would air during Movie Week, considering that the million-dollar question was film-related. However, that obviously was not the case.
If the information is, in fact, true, then I expect the Dan Weisman episode to air on or before mid-March. If it still doesn't air by then, then I will certainly be doubtful about its validity.
(SIDE-NOTE: Dan Weisman's entry in Wikipedia, along with other million-dollar winners' entries [e.g., Nancy Christy, Ed Toutant, etc.] have been deleted, as they did not pass the "Articles for Deletion" vote. I guess most of the regular Wikipedia editors don't feel that articles about game show winners aren't encyclopedic enough...)

you know, I could be totally wrong but it sounds like that the Dan Weisman episode could be part of college week. Because...
1. He is supposedly the youngest millionaire to win (19 years old) and goes to UCLA
hes a student and usually contestants during college week are between 18-25 years old
2. The Million dollar question is College related
on themed episodes, alot of the questions are based on that theme. such as "Play to pay for your wedding" has many questions about Marriage and Weddings, "Million dollar movie week" has questions about films obviously, and college week has many school related questions.
3. The Million dollar is a little on the easy side
usually questions during college week are easier than the regular millionaire questions. It's kind of like Jeopardy's college tournament. And anyone who has seen Tommy Boy could probably get this question right.
But we have had one college week already, so I dunno the chances of having another one this season.

I thought it would be in college week, too, but it wasn't. I'd say if the episode doesn't air sometime in March, than it doesn't exist.
