LOL Opus. You win today's Internet award.

I didn't until you asked, but now yes, I do. And I wholeheartedly agree. And then some. It ROCKS.

Reagan was born in Tampico, Illinois, a very small town about 40 minutes from where I live. He died in California. The CEO where I worked at the time took off to attend. Sometimes one can't help but know some things. I guessed Eisenhower. Texas/DC. Tunia has a new look! Nice. I did a LOL at Trebek talking about this. Turns out we were all wrong.

I watched part of the rerun last night (WTH NBC, rerunning AGT and WoD two nights after they aired originally?) and everyone had on different outfits throughout the show. So yeah, TPTB obviously don't care.

LOL! It did look like David's head now that you say that. Three snaps up for you for answering correctly. The veterinarian lady who is going to sail the world lives about 1-1/2 hours from me. Not that that means anything to anyone. Even me.

Geez, I don't know why you guys didn't get Europa given we were shown her picture. I mean, we got Jackie Collins, boa, fox, daffodil ... wasn't the pic of Europa a dead giveaway?

A new actor for me, even though I have watched/own all seasons of The Wire and Oz. Never have seen Gotham though. Thanks for making me aware of him!

Michael McKean! Best In Show, Waiting For Godot, Spinal Tap, For Your Consideration:

I'm guessing Jackie Collins had a lot of "work" done as she was in that circle of people. Sort of like so many movie stars who can't move their faces but think they look great. RIP Ms. Collins. "Sorry" is an answer in J6 today. Oh ... SPOILER!

I'm positive that's what they were doing, just using hands instead of a gig. Those frogs weren't hopping after that night's dinner, if you know what I mean. Every boy had a pet frog to chase the girls with. At least in that part of the country. No big deal. (Then you eat their legs later.) I know we need to get to know the rookies, but I wanted to see more of my favorites. And by that, I don't mean Kasey or Brent. If they are going to come back and get air time, then freaking be able to finish the course. I'd rather see Jessie in the interview box than Kasey. Heck, for that matter, ANYONE in the interview box than Kasey. Not that I hate her, it's just that she's been surpassed. And she's not that old. I can see her coming back to moderate if she were 50 or something, but she's only 28 and SHOULD still be competitive. She's just not. And what happened to Brent? He used to be the star of this thing. Maybe being associated with Kasey accounts for his bad skills lately. Daniel Gil rocks. I thought he said they had three houses on their 24 acres. But no one knew they lived there? That's sort of weird. Still, getting flooded like that is a devastation. At least he has lots of family so they can pull together. I like the extra-tall wall for $10,000. I thought ninjas were going that high in some of the competition episodes. But I guess after ALMOST making 18 feet, that shortie wall is simple. So there's that! Glad this show is back. I still love Matt and Akbar. Best moderator team ever.

I didn't pay attention to judge outfits this episode, but I noticed Tyra's look/hair/outfit changed radically. I thought the judges wore the same thing during auditions (as do The Voice judges), then wear whatever for the live performances. Just so we can tell the auditions happened at the same time (*cough*). I'm not much of a clothes person, it's just that Tyra makes such dramatic changes between performers. She changes more per episode than Cher!

Your one tops the other four combined. Congrats!

For real. When tv went digital from analog, no antenna I bought would bring in CBS, and I have antennas almost as tall as I am. (I do not have cable/satellite.) When the local WB changed its direction, I lost that channel along with five of my favorite shows. During winter I could get three PBS stations, but now those are lost along with Fox network. I'm down to NBC and ABC channels only. And having to move my antenna by hand when I switch between the two. To clarify, my neighbors are corn fields and it's an hour's drive on the Interstate to the nearest large town. I've learned to do without a lot of things, including Young Sheldon. Which, BTW, is not missed.

I thought of you guys when Young Sheldon appeared once again. As I don't get that channel, I've only seen YS on Jeopardy. And I expect to see him again soon.

This didn't dawn on me until later, and maybe it was filmed on a different day, but when the wannabe judge drank from Howie's cup, it was dark orange/red. In the "photo" Sacred Riana took of Mel with "Bob" behind her, there was a bright yellow cup in the foreground. Were cups all yellow that day? I don't care enough to rewatch. I forgot that Rapper Girl was on this show, and I guess most people here forgot too. Heh. She was okay, won't mind seeing her again. Even if I sorta drifted off during her backstory and rap. When the tall guy came out in the spandex costume, I thought for a minute it was the second coming of Poppycock. That would have been okay with me. <waves back at Ib60!> Hi!

I like Judas Priest better as an answer given the number of marriages. Or husbands. Although yesterday's Jeopardy did state LDS has made polygamy illegal, so beware of the cops, multi-marriage people.

Just a big fat NO to this. So nasty I couldn't even look at it. Although it would be funny if every one of them came down with strep. THAT would get my vote.

That's before my time, but mt father showed me the famous "As God as my witness, I thought turkeys could fly." Loved it. A couple days ago on Wheel, the category was TV shows. The puzzle got to "W_RP IN CINCINNATI" and after a guess of "WORP IN CINCINNATI," all three players just stood there and stared. Sajak finally had to put the "K" in himself and no one got the money.

The champ looks like Michael McKeon and nothing like a brainiac. Which makes me like him. "Male Authors!" cracked me up. You know PAs are reading here. So, thank you show. I got every single TS plus FJ was a snap. Hanging out on The Bachelorette thread and not here has vastly improved my brain power. Who woulda guessed.

It seems we're getting a "I knew you before" contestant every season. I wonder if TPTB search them out to add to the cast to create drah-ma. I mean, not that this show would ever do anything like that. As for Colton dating Aly Raisman, he was a pro football guy who got injured so 1. was in a different circle of friends that includes professional athletes; and 2. he would have gotten a TON of money from the NFL after his injury. That payoff is what enabled Ryan Sutter to be a volunteer fireman and live in ($$$) Vail. Plus I suspect more than one bach broke up with their girlfriend before this show started taping. Will we find out about others? Stay tuned! It would be fun if the Raisman connection comes out though. And Becca gets to meet Aly -- when Aly comes on the show to confront Becca!

I had never heard this, so I looked it up and found lots of interesting information about how sand dollars relate to the Christian religion. And there are literally (literally!) little shell doves, five of them, inside each dollar. Here is the link. Sand dollars could make a full Jeopardy category. Thanks Mindthinkr!

Yes! Anyone remember the Seinfeld episode about this exact subject? “You’re quite breathtaking.” Great fun map. It even located my exact township, then it dumped me in the ocean, midway between Madagascar and Australia. I was hoping for a sex change, but no such luck. That added to her "I'm the smartest person ever" smirk which she displayed after every successful DD and FJ. SO glad she's gone. I liked absolutely nothing about her. Good riddance.

So much this. I'm guessing JLo can't shoot baskets like LeBron either. All these reality competition shows are judge centered, the real focus is on the judges and the (most of the time) stupid things they say. Rarely do they give any insight or helpful comments. As has been said, thank goodness for FF. I hated Karen and Ricardo. I don't know anything about them but they looked like every other salsa duo I've ever seen on these shows. Maybe it was on AGT last year, there was a salsa team who did spins and spins and spins. These guys reminded me of them. Too frantic and "harsh" for my taste. They would have gone home if I were judging. Which is why I'm not judging. (Well, that and a dozen other reasons.) Meanwhile, I would have sent Hilty & Bosch easily straight through. I'd watch them all day while Karen and Ricardo, no. Seen that, don't want to see it again. I loved the Desi Hoppers, Jaxon, Sean and Kaycee, and S-Rank. Looking forward to seeing them again. I just hate this time waster. So stupid. Just give the scores, show. Anyway, glad this show is back. It's a good brain escape, a diversion I welcome about now.

The cats boggled my mind, who knew cats could be trained for such a variety of tricks. I liked them better than any of the dog acts, they were amazing and hilarious. The card magician was fabulous, I loved him. So nice to know he's one of the best in the world. Yes, we've seen those tricks before (sort of) but for the life of me I can't figure it out so it must be magic. Plus he's cute. I also like the lady comedian, she made me LOL. I was "meh" on the creepy magician chick. I liked the dance crew from Philippines. I sort of drifted off during the other dance crew, although the stiff-legged girl who got lifted sideways was pretty impressive. I HATED the water boys. Hated them so much, I turned away and wouldn't watch them. Nasty and gross and not funny. I guess I'm the only one who was repelled by them. I have no problem with winners from other countries coming here to compete. I'd rather see them than that guy who wanted to be a judge or the hand squishing "music" guy. That's what we'd be watching every week if those other acts weren't allowed. Then the show would be called America's Got No Talent.

I've been to an Eagles concert and I told friends I saw the Eagles. More egregious was answering "The Clan" for Wu Tang (blank). Now THAT'S incorrect, it's not Wu Tang The Clan. We've already discussed that here. My pet peeve is calling Ukraine "The Ukraine." I hear it constantly on tv and the radio. Pretty much every time Ukraine is in the news. This doesn't bother me. It's like saying "I'm going to the library." "I'm going to the (small t) Mayo Clinic." Actually, everyone I know, including clients, professionals employed there (I'm talking Rochester, Minn.) plus doctors who work there just call it "Mayos." They are "going to Mayos." The "s" is technically incorrect, but that's what everyone calls it: Mayos. British people say they are "going to hospital," no "the" at all, while "the" is inserted all the time in America. The British "no the" sounds clumsy to American ears. To "the" or not to "the," it doesn't bother me. Except in the case of Ukraine.
