Yup. Goddamn NBA. Lot of people complaining on the contestant Facebook group that their stations preempted it as well.

Found Donna annoying a bit, but I felt I should let her do her and win some money.

if a white male did the same annoying poo poo it would be ok to call him annoying, but if a female PoC does it you better not say anything bad about it

I'm just not a great fan of contestants that try and 'rattle-snap' the answer and next category in some thin attempt to force alex to rush. Though I'm not a big Alex fan, I do love how he will slow his delivery in such cases. I'm sure it annoys the heck out of those type of contestants. :-D

Although, for someone who is fully bi-lingual, his fake french accent was among the worst ever. Worse even than Steve Martin trying to play Peter Sellers playing Clouseau.

I think "the Mormon Church" or "the LDS Church" probably would have been acceptable. "The Mormons" I would think not, because that's more than the organization itself.

Those categories are OK when they give you the one word all the clues are based on, this one where you had to both find the inside word and figure out which word you were supposed to be thinking about in the first place was a bit much.

On the annual contestant search quizzes, it's not officially acknowledged but generally believed that the point where you have a real shot at landing an invitation is 35/50.

Yeah, last test was back in May, IIRC. Used to be around the same time every year, around the end/beginning of the year or so, but they've kinda switched it up lately. I remember a couple years back the test was in October, right around NYCC time, so I guess Sony Pictures will schedule another one when they need more contestants in the pool.

Haven't heard any scuttlebutt about another test online at all either, and the Jeopardy contestant network would be all on that if another was announced.
