I hardly notice Stephanopoulos at all. I think he's totally adequate but he just blends in with the show entirely.

He's kind of a nothingburger for me, too. He's not bad but he just blends in entirely. The only times I notice him are the 3-4 times a game when his voice gets randomly croaky.

He seemed shocked at the saying of The Little Barber Shop of Horrors. I can't picture him as a fan of the musical (or films) but humans can be weird like that. He strikes me as barely putting effort into it. Above Anderson but strictly middle of the pack.

Ugh, thank you. I want to shout at my TV for somebody to give him a spit bucket. Also lol at Charlotte's Web stumping all three contestants in Final

Yeah, we still have University Challenge in the UK which was a licenced version of College Bowl and it's great, genuinely hard, wide ranging questions at a university level, so I had some hope. The thing I watched last night had a question that was 'if you divide a pizza into 8 slices, how many slices would make a quarter?'

I'm aware University Challenge came from College Bowl and was hoping but not expecting something similar given the commercial nature of television here and eventually all TV in the UK at some point. What I wasn't expecting was a painfully unfunny double act, questions that middle (junior high/primary, etc) could get answered by schools selected more for racial quotas and ties to the hosts than anything all to win one semester's worth of books E: Peyton is now doing alt. coverage for Monday Night Football with Eli so maybe there's a chance it's NBC that makes it terrible.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woolly_rhinoceros I get what they were going for... "It wasn't just mammoths that were called this..." might have been a little better.

BaronVonVaderham posted:Maybe not as many with the answer, "Who is Trump?" as we get for the others he names, but yeah...plenty of clues about him and his administration. Apparently, a bunch of former Jeopardy contestants searched J-Archive, and there’ve been at least 14 or so clues that mention Trump in some form or another in the past 3 years, and said so in that comment thread. Dude moved the goalposts once that was made known, because of course he did like a typical MAGA jackass. GhostStalker fucked around with this message at 05:42 on Jul 22, 2021 |

I feel like Robin's dress would have been better if one of the yellow hoops had shown up in the top half. More substantially, she's doing a pretty good job, I think. TIL that carillon birds like condors also count as raptors!
