Today's episode is Season 20, Episode 59 from December 8, 2016. Discussion Link: "Friendship Ruined Over a Vacation." Case titles: 1) Tripping Up A Friend; 2) Not Caring; 3) A Big Cover Up. Note: This is the actual episode title and individual case titles from the show. SRTouch, I believe, was just making up the titles in order to summarize the cases as he saw fit. What I am using is from an actual site, tvdb, that has the case titles. The cases SRTouch recaps and gives different names are the same as those described above, even though the titles are different. If anyone thinks this is confusing, I can not include the case titles, season and episode numbers and date originally aired. Sometimes the titles tip off what the case is about. Let me know what everyone wants included.

Today's episode is Season 20, Episode 58 from December 7, 2016. Discussion Link: "War Over a Window." Case titles: 1) Not Fitting In; 2) Doing A Sister Wrong; 3) A Shot In The Dark. Edit: This was the first (and last) time that I paid attention to the Yidio (I don't know what it is either) episode description. Won't use that site again. Here is the link, if interested, that I just cut and pasted the description from. The site, for some reason, got the decision wrong. War Over a Window Yidio Description Reminiscent of Harvey' summation not getting the decision right, like he didn't even watch the case. Sorry for the confusion.

Today's episode should be Season 20, Episode 57 from December 6, 2016. Discussion Link: "Kitten Catastrophe." Case Titles: 1) A Feline Foolery; 2) Soiling An Agreement; 3) Always Being Tardy. Bookworrm13, no worry, it is just a non-payment case, no animals are hurt in this instance.

The grading of Jan's essay paper makes no sense and can never be graded correctly, assuming 100 is the highest possible grade, as it should be. Follow: there are 7 categories with 15 seeming to be the highest grade possible in each category. 7 times 15 is 105. Jan's grade is '98' but adds up to 93, thus allowing Nora Coombs ("Nora, Nora, Nora!") to be the true winner. Possibly the final two categories, "Presentation" and "Literary Style" (whatever those are supposed to be), in which Jan gets marks of 10 respectively, are out of 10, but still doesn't work, as then the highest total possible would be 95. The teacher just deducted 10 points and thinks the total of 98 is still possible is equally nonsensical. The grading system being used by the teacher is incorrect, as it never adds up to 100. Corollary, Jan was deducted 12 points, which from a possible 100 would be 88 not the 93 the score actually adds up to. The teacher would have been better off just giving a total score with no categories and be done with it, but then there would be no mistake in addition allowing for Jan to wrongly be declared the winner and then come clean. The grading: Spelling: Jan gets 15 (out of 15); Grammar: Jan gets 14 (out of 15); Neatness: Jan gets 14 (out of 15): Originality of Idea: Jan gets 15 (out of 15); Composition: Jan gets 15 (out of 15): Presentation: Jan gets 10 (out of 15); Literary Style: Jan gets 10 (out of 15) with the total incorrectly added up to 98 not the correct total of 93. Always bothered me. Jan's essay link on IMDB: Jan's Graded Essay Image

Whoa! Really? Wow. Yes, but she lost; I was rooting for her. Here is her own post which covers the subject. Teebax Remembering Alex Trebek December 29, 2020 "I'm late to this thread, but figured I'd post my Alex memory here, by request. A lot of you already know the story, but I filmed my episode, as part of the Teachers Tournament, on April 1, 2019. This was the first set of episodes taped after Alex announced his condition, and it was in the middle of James's historic run. Alex had a lot of respect for veterans, and I had mentioned my service during my interview. At the end of the taping, i was disheartened. I struggled with the buzzer and was upset with myself. I wasn't emba, but I knew I was a better player than my final score reflected. Anyway, Alex was kind and gracious. We talked about where I'd been stationed, and he shared a story with me about a visit he'd made to one of the bases I'd loved at. He told me I wouldn't have been chosen if I weren't smart and that the buzzer is the difference maker. The following month after the taping, my mother died suddenly. Three months later, my father died suddenly, too. A month after my dad died, my mom's best friend died suddenly. Most people say 2020 was their worst year ever, but for me personally, 2019 was devastating. I lost my parents and someone who'd been a godmother to me in four months, all suddenly. However, I now realize how lucky I was. My parents were both able to attend my taping, and when I went to LA for my audition in January 2019, I took my mom with me on the road trip. My partner at the time was NOT happy that I chose to take my mom instead of her, but in hindsight I'm so glad I did. It ended up being our last road trip together, something we'd always done a few times a year. What no one tells you is that the Jeopardy community is strong for former contestants. My group from the Teachers Tournament has remained in touch and even done some online trivia games as a team. They were amazing during my grieving. Several of them sent gifts for my graduating seniors last May. This past summer, we lost Vicki Leibeck-Owsley to cancer, and we all mourned her together. It really is a community, and I'm better for having met such amazing people, including Alex." If interested, you can go through Teebax's content page for more details on her Jeopardy appearance.

In going back to old posts, I often come across formerly regular posters in this community who no longer post here, such as those mentioned above, particularly teebax, who was a favorite poster of mine and who appeared as a Jeopardy contestant, and SRTouch, whose recaps make watching TPC so much more enjoyable, as well as Brattinella, OhioSongbird, califred, NYGirl and others. I then check their "find content" button and see people who were once regular Primetimer posters who abruptly stopped posting years ago, especially during the pandemic. My mind goes to one place; that these folks have passed away and this makes me sad when I go back to the past posts. I was hesitant to bring this issue up. I hope their reasons for no longer posting on Primetimer are less morbid, as AngelaHunter suggested, but I tend to doubt it. Today's episode should be Season 20, Episode 54 from November 24, 2016.
