  1. So jealous. And a big Good For You! *drink* And a lucky you too. I would love to visit Scotland.
  2. Twitter is full of hate as is every site that accepts comments, which is why most newspapers have closed their comment sections. One reporter I follow receives multiple death-threats every day, along with what these guys will do to her before she is murdered. A film maker I follow gets more than 100 hate/personal attack tweets in response to every tweet he puts out. Anyone who goes on any tv show needs to be familiar with social media plus have a thick skin. That's why I was critical about what Suzanne was wearing. Yeah, women of a certain build have problems finding "cute" clothes, but if you are going on national television where you will be filmed from the waist up, you dress conservatively and cover up. It's not that hard to find a couple outfits that give the haters nothing to attack; that was proven by Suzanne's third appearance when she looked great. Unfortunately, the damage was done by her first two "chesty" appearances, and, as another poster here said, let's hope she does not look at twitter. Commenting on a contestant's poor clothing choice is not one iota close to posting how someone would like to physically abuse another person, and I'm very disappointed that anyone here even thinks it's the same. As they say on Page Six tv, "If you don't want it on Page Six, don't do it."
  3. Drink! Manafort was all I could come up with too. And yeah, he was perfect for the "Man" category. *cough* And ... that would be ... HOW much longer? *cough*
  4. I guess I'm going with you for laughing at this. Quite loudly in fact. At least you bothered to do the math. And still, they needed a picture of Chelsea Clinton. I'm hoping tomorrow someone tells us about their nutcracker collection. At least Jim's black ice story was one Trebek couldn't horn in on, being a So Cal boy and all. The only black ice he sees is in his Good For You drink.
  5. Exactly what I was doing. And thinking! The former members could fill an entire Jeopardy clue board.
  6. I owe you Taco Bell because I did not know the horse clue about Roman gods or whatever that one was. Not in a million years. Plus I knew that category wouldn't be finished, even though yes, Steve tried at the end. My cold black heart melted a little for Suzanne as she liked the horse category too. Not that she's a bad person mind you. Speaking of Suzanne, thank you for looking great today (seriously!) in the black sweater. Perfect outfit for national tv. Plus she had time overnight between games to take her winnings and buy that pendant. What's up with Trebek not saying something about that? I liked it, too. I also liked her FJ bet. That's what I would do if I were last. Bet nothing and cross my fingers. I thought Steve was going to win and I was okay with that, although I'm waiting for someone to comment on his "hunnerts." I kind of spaced what he said, but it was Lincoln who reportedly said, when Stowe came to the WH, that she was the little lady who started that big war. Steve TOTALLY goofed up when he said Frankenstein, then realized his mistake and stopped. If he had said Mary Shelley right away, he would have been ruled correct. Because $100,000 Pyramid Rule you know. Say as many words as you can until you say the right ones. I got the TS of manifold. I guess it was Before Their Time when people used to crawl under their cars to do their own repairs. I did anyway. Mindthinkr, for acing that horse category, you also get a DQ Blizzard treat of your choice. Oh: I also got FJ. What's up with me getting it correct two days in a row. Is this Toddler Jeopardy or what?
  7. You are correct about the name. All my nights are currently three-dog ones. Winter is excellent as all three get under the blankets and yes, they do indeed keep one warm on the coldest nights. I used to have six-dog nights, which doesn't roll off the tongue quite as nicely as three. But it was plenty warm. Driad, I look at jeopardy.com to see the contestants who are scheduled for each day. You won't know the returning champ until he/she is known, but you can see the picture, name, occupation and hometown of the scheduled players for every day of the current week. The spoiler announcement was for me, I gave the subject for one of today's categories since I play J6 every morning. I won't be doing that again any time soon though. Or any time later either. This is SO AWESOME! Please do go, and let us know what (who) you find! I miss The Tiger.
  8. There have been one or two bachelors who have refused the walk out in the past, when they're down to the final few guys. I remember one getting really hot about it and pretty much telling the b-ette to step off, he could walk himself out. So those are drah-matic exits too. Either way works for TPTB I guess. Pitch a fit, you get to walk alone. Walk with the rejector and TPTB hopes for some great sound bites. These are two guys who have obviously seen this show before. Yes, there is a format and script, and if you don't "open yourself up to love" by HT week, you are toast. Plus you have to say "I am falling in love with you" by then too, or you are homeward bound.
  9. Yes, she IS annoying in that she sent two PTV family members home, Scott and Jim. That does not endear her to me. And she's not the first to be ranked on here for a chest display. There are ways to cover those girls better. If you want to. I own a couple myself so know all about it. Jeezus, that's way gruesome. But thanks for the info Kathira. I easily got FJ, then looked them up online as I remember one of them leaving to go solo. As it turns out, people were in and out of that band so much, I had to stop reading, it all got too confusing. I'm glad I hadn't read about them before seeing FJ as their crazy history of now-I'm-a-member, now-I'm-not would have made me ASSume it was not them. Actually, my first thought was Three Dog Night, although I don't know how many members are in that band, just that there are three dogs. I don't think that would have counted. What are you, a smartie pants or something? Like you are smart enough to get on Jeopardy? Oh ... right. Never mind.
  10. I didn't think it was possible for me to dislike Suzanne more than I did yesterday, but yes, it is possible. If I had been watching in 3D, her boobs would have put out my eye, or at the least, smothered me to death. That girl needs to learn how to put the girls away. Except they do cause men to lose their minds for some abstract reason that's beyond me. So I guess she's working them. I was so irritated with her answer of "willow" in the fireworks category, then Trebek fills in, "Yes, weeping willow." WTH Trebek. There are more than 10 varieties of willow, and most have multiple names. "Weeping" is just one of them. There's bebb willow, corkscrew willow, coyote willow, dappled willow, goat willow, peach willow, purple osier willow, scouler's willow, white willow, yellow willow and so on. And of course, there's Mr. Trump's favorite: the pussy willow. If only. I would have paid money to have you switch days. Today's FJ was so easy that I knew it, and I haven't gotten a FJ since Magic Eight Ball. They don't have live shows ever on Jeopardy.
  11. Yes. TPTB want to milk as much drahmah on camera and on tape as they can. I remember they drove one rejected bach around in the limo ride of shame for six hours, priming him with drinks and trying to get him to spill some juicy scoop.
  12. Yeah. For anyone who thinks we are harsh here, take a sec and look at some twitter account. That's where the trolls live. We're choirboys (and girls) in this thread. The F Stop category I didn't get until Trebek said something about words ending in F. I was all, "Where are the photography questions?" I could have aced them. And yes, I would have accepted "Stiff" for your answer Gimmick. I'll let you guys know when I become a Jeopardy! judge. Excellent insight Gimmick. I noticed you said Courtney Cox but had already forgotten about Laverne Cox. What with all the board hopping and all. (No fault of yours!)
  13. Sure, Becca and Chris were alone in her place ... with all kinds of camera people and PAs from the show following them around and getting in their faces. "Walking you out" is what this show makes you do. All the rejects get "walked out." Well, except the ones left on an island, kicked off a train, left in the desert.
  14. I was weirded out as to why Harlee would have a wig that's identical to her "real" hair. What's up with that? I also think the hooker was telling the truth, she spotted Stahl and was afraid. And yeah, she's jealous of Harlee. She's a hooker and has low-lifes for johns. Harlee is a hot cop. Plenty to be jealous of, and wish you really were her. Stahl's the one who turned her on to the play acting thing though. I doubt hooker will end up dead. But one never knows on this show. (ACK! A commercial for this show just came on!)
  15. "Good answer! Good answer!" I know, but this whole game made me cranky so I'm cranking about that too. (I wonder if they will ever use Mensch On A Bench.) Still, remember all the "the"s players have added to finish titles that have no "the" in them? Judges were okay with those. This show sometimes ... Kit Carson.
  16. I would give this one thousand likes if I could. Made me tear up. You are lucky to have a GOOD family.
  17. That's only fair since this: made me LOL and feel considerably better after a cr*p Jeopardy day.
  18. Study up on Stockholm syndrome. It's very real.
  19. Well that sucked big time. I give a shout out to Dave, however, for talking over Trebek when he wanted to ramble on after the first clue. Dave was all, let's get on with it. So yeay for that one high point in this dreck episode. Back to board jumping! Something we haven't seen for three days. For some reason I knew Oglethorpe was in Georgia. WTH with Suzanne being awarded the points after wrongly saying New Jersey, THEN saying Trenton. So players can say as many answers as possible in the allotted time and if they accidentally say the right answer, they get it? What is this, The $100,000 Pyramid? Irritated that Elf on THE Shelf was taken away. This episode was a good example of us being able to see all three players buzzing in at the same time as all three had their buzzers held in the same position. That never happens. We got a GFY during the game this time. *drink* Thank you that Jim was awarded $ for his correct answer of William Tell that he pronounced with the correct accent. Trebek, you are such a jackass. Just because it wasn't French you thought he was wrong. I was pumped that Jim was ahead at FJ. Then everything went downhill. I, too, thought FJ was Poland. I swear, in all the years of learning world history, not once was it ever mentioned that The Netherlands had concentration camps. Well Jim, that was a game well played. Plus you looked great ... very handsome if I do say so myself. Love the glasses and the CM bow tie. I'm beyond irritated that Suzanne topped you at the end. I don't like her or her chest. If Jim couldn't win, then board-hopping Dave would have been better than her. Yes, I'm still carrying a grudge for her beating Scott. And now Jim. Now git off my lawn.
  20. I hope to never see either one again, ever, IRL or on my teevee. Especially Mr. Convict Lincoln. Bah-bye forever.
  21. MrAtoz continues to be on my teevee. Three times today a new Jeopardy commercial has played, with Trebek saying "I like being with smart people" (paraphrase), then "You're all tied" (paraphrase again) and a very clear closeup of Scott in his handsome blue shirt. I just happened to glance at the tv when Scott appeared, so I need to watch more closely when it is on again. Apparently, Trebek found himself so clever on yesterday's episode that a commercial featuring him and his wit needed to be made. Although I don't mind since it means Scott lives on ...
  22. My local news just did an extended story on Route 66 and what's happening on that historic road during the 4th holiday. Emphasis was put on Illinois attractions such as Dell Rhea Chicken Basket in Willowbrook, the Route 66 museum in Pontiac and the Joliet prison (where Prison Break was filmed!). The whole segment was dedicated to Scott McFadden, although they neglected to say so.
  23. I have to say, Chris was very articulate in his apology post. No one deserves death threats for just being on a dumb reality show. While I was ambivalent toward him on the show, I give him big props for his well-written post. As we know, most bachelors don't even have a basic command of the English language. So, good on Chris for that anyway.
