Pitch Lines

 :)
Likely loser in war   DEUCE
Lyon king   ROI
Back stroke?   PAT [“pat on the back”]
 
???
Why do we pronounce WELESA with an n?

 :-\
Not sure why Samuel chose to remind us of these irritating TV ad terms, but they are, alas, very much part of our culture.

 :(
French possessive   TES [the plural of te (or tee) is TES, so the clue could be “After eses.”]

RATING: 
;D ;D
Three grins = Excellent: Loved it; Two grins = Good: Enjoyed it; One grin = Satisfactory: A bit bland for my taste; One teardrop = Unsatisfying: No fun
