Who woulda thunk Sharon Stone would be a Jeopardy champion.Crazy lady got knocked off, by Sharon Stone of all people.
I’m probably the last person who should be commenting on fashion, but that orange tie and orange shirt combo… yikes.

Yikes is right...that's also one ill-fitting suit.
I had no idea what the answer was. I don't think the guy who won did, either.That guy was really excited - good for him.
I'm surprised 2 of the 3 missed a relatively easy Final.
He had a mustache? And that's just ridiculous. People are idiots.Feel a bit for bad him now as I found his Twitter account, and he apparently searched himself on there and found some tweets comparing his haircut and mustache look to, uh, Hitler, which he obviously did not like.
(At least I just posted about his suit and tie.)
To me the suit looks like something he had when he was fatter and then someone who didn't know what they were doing tailored it for him.Alas, now I can't unsee the Hitler thing. Or that suit. Where on earth did he get that?
Not sure that's better.To me the suit looks like something he had when he was fatter and then someone who didn't know what they were doing tailored it for him.Alas, now I can't unsee the Hitler thing. Or that suit. Where on earth did he get that?
He doesn't look like Hitler to me. More like a cross of Andy Richter and the my pillow guy.
I thought he looked less like Hitler and more like Cliff Clavin.
I got Oliver Hardy vibes from him. But not Hitler.Alas, now I can't unsee the Hitler thing. Or that suit. Where on earth did he get that?
Missed that one. Just caught the tail end of it tonight after putting the kid to bed.Hey, @Don Quixote was an answer tonight!

I wondered why Kissinger would be living there.I thought todays FJ was easy but they all blew it. It’s like they didn’t know where Soweto is.
I thought that the Walt Disney one on Monday was the easiest Final in months, maybe years.I thought todays FJ was easy but they all blew it. It’s like they didn’t know where Soweto is.
First one I've gotten recently, so it must be easy.thought that the Walt Disney one on Monday was the easiest Final in months, maybe years.
They were clearly not sports fans -- I believe this was not the only sports triple stumper of the day.And no one buzzed in on the Jerry Jones question.
How do they handle that, 2 returning champs at the same time? Who gets to sit in the champs chair?

He said he had COVID.
FWIW, the local affiliate says Ben's absence was due to "an untimely illness" with no further details.
He would have wiped the floor with any of the three people who played on Monday. The winner of that game is very lucky.
Cliff Clavin lives. I practically had a stroke. Do none of these people ever watch the show?Was a boring ho hum game today until the DDs popped up and made it an excellent two horse race. Then all 3 of them botched their bets in the triple stumper Final Jeopardy.
Scores:
returning champ Deb $18,800
Devin $20,600
Ben $4,400)
Deb: Bet between $3,601 (thereby staying above Devin’s low range) and $9,999 (thereby keeping Ben locked out). (Actual bet: $18,800, finishes with zero)
Devin: Standard cover bet over Deb is $17,001.(Actual bet: $19,400, wins with $1200)
Ben: Limit your bet to $799; this way, you stay ahead of Devin if he gets Final incorrect. (Actual bet: $4,399, finishes with $1)
I wanted to throw things.
Yes, this is one of life's true mysteries that I seem to mention frequently among fellow Jeopardy fans!I don’t understand how your mind can simultaneously be a repository for massive amounts of information across broad spectrums, yet somehow breaks down when asked to do 5th grade level computations mixed with 9th grade level gane theory / strategy.
This one was the worst. Even if you know nothing about optimal betting strategy, the most basic betting decision is "if the other two are far ahead of you but very close to each other, bet nothing because chances are both will make big bets and you can win if they are both wrong."Ben: Limit your bet to $799; this way, you stay ahead of Devin if he gets Final incorrect.
Actual bet: $4,399, finishes with $1
Some people are highly, highly advanced at a few specific things and completely hopeless at everything else. I think quite a few of these people end up on Jeopardy.I don’t understand how your mind can simultaneously be a repository for massive amounts of information across broad spectrums, yet somehow breaks down when asked to do 5th grade level computations mixed with 9th grade level gane theory / strategy.
Since Mayim's fashion choices get harshed on in here sometimes, from an equal opportunity perspective, what the hell was that sweater that Mr. $1200 Winner wore in his second game?Yeah that was pretty abysmal. Too bad the "winner" didn't walk away with even less.
I have no idea. I have the feeling that the neck is normally turned twice,but it muffled his voice, so they made him turn it three times. Even the Gorton's Fisherman doesn't look that bad.Since Mayim's fashion choices get harshed on in here sometimes, from an equal opportunity perspective, what the hell was that sweater that Mr. $1200 Winner wore in his second game?Yeah that was pretty abysmal.

Numbering system starts on West coastSo, how do you imagine she thought a road connected Albany and Boston, but went thru Denver between them?? Or that a city on the coast was somehow the 1st or 2nd highest in elevation??
