I said the same, would have had the right two with more time to think but that’s not the game!

I top4’d mtg states AND a magic online ptq once, think they’ll let me back on the show if I tell them that?

Yeah, this reads as nerds trying to dunk on nerds. Its far from the most boring story we've gotten.

We didn't get to see Final :argh:

For some weird loving reason Hulu's cloud DVR recorded just fine but after announcing the category it just went right to Wheel after commercials.

Might just be me being an idiot, but tonight's Final Jeopardy felt really obscure.

I thought I was doing well just knowing The Jazz Singer starred Al Jolson and was the first big name talkie.

He at least hosts Jeopardy Masters started the 8th so we aren't completely through with him yet.

Call Me Kat ends its season Thursday and TVLine thinks it'll be renewed. Currently draws 2.3 million viewers

Yeah, wouldn't have though "US Landmark that has the 2 lanterns" would be a stumper, but I guess if they didn't have to learn the poem in school it wouldn't be burned in their brains. Still a little weird that they weren't even close though.

We correctly surmised that it was the place Paul Revere hung the lanterns but we had no idea what it was called.

WGA is on strike now so maybe we won't be subject to her pauses as much unless they run non stop potpourri clues for the last few weeks of taping.

A reddit user reports that Ken said they're good on clues (presumably for the season) because they've banked enough ahead of time.

The Ringer interviewed Barbara Lowe. I hadn't realized her episodes had been found and are now logged to J Archive. A ton of episodes were found along with it.

Interesting to hear her side. It certainly seems like the stuff about her using a fake SSN and appearing on too many gameshows is bullshit, and the producers/Alex just hated her for being disruptive. Denying someone half their winnings because she had to stop the taping to use the bathroom isn't a great look.

I wish someone would make the episodes public, but reading j-archive's notes she doesn't seem terrible. Protesting during a question was definitely bad form.
