I keep them straight by Red for Republicans. However, I had no answer for FJ! on Monday.

Definitely an extra N in Narragansett. I didn't pre-call FJ! (I said Roger Daltry, Mick Jagger, Steven Tyler before the clue was revealed) but it was an instaget. However, the middle person spelt Freddie wrong--she wrote down Freddy. I know it doesn't matter but it bugged.

How was Sopwith Camel not an instaget? Contestant uh-ed and um-ed and finally got it. But doesn't EVERYONE know Snoopy and the Red Baron? Or is that before their time??????

Not only did I not get Friday’s FJ! but I’ve never even heard of it.

I pre guessed Dalton Trumbo because he is the only screenwriter I know. There was no way to parse out the answer. You either knew it or you didn’t. Cannot stand the new champ’s speedy speaking so you will have to let me know when she loses .

Has anyone done a stupider wager than Shouty Middle Guy betting it all with one clue left? No, I didn’t think so.

I said butterfly, but didn’t specify monarch. What would the judges’ ruling be? Honest to God, how did Barbara get picked? So slow to answer and pick. Michael made me seasick with his swaying.

The picture was of T.E. Lawrence. They kind of resemble each other except in height. Lawrence was about 5’5”.

Instaget FJ! here. I dunno, I can’t get into the show this season. It hasn’t been the same since James. P.S. I was raised Methodist and went to Sunday school. Learned all the stories/ parables.

Argentina for me also. I know I’m behind in geography,,but how can Australia be both a country and a continent?

Never heard of Task Rabbit. I said University of Colorado instead of Colorado State. My FJ! reply was "BC for Belgian Congo, then WG for West Germany, then I give up." Difference between UK and GB??????

Asking, rhetorically, yet again, why is the tent not air conditioned??? That would have helped the cakes cool faster. Didn’t Ryan or Alvin do a PUDC and it scored very high.

I so wanted Matt to do Vicky Pollard “no but yeah but no. For those of you who know him only through Doctor Who, check out Little Britain, a sketch comedy show he did with David Walliams. The bubble gum and cream soda cake was a rip off of Nadyia’s. Lottie looks exactly like Candace. Sura committed one of my 7 deadly sins: not being aware of the space around you. She said there was a fly she had to brush off. WTF. I too love Noel’s hair.

The 3 contestants, and especially the woman in the middle, were far too tentative and hesitant. Have some guts players. Attack. I said Tiger Woods for FJ!

Quote thingy won’t work. I’m also from no. Illinois! And obviously Illinidoc is from somewhere in our inglorious state.

And of course Xanadu was the estate in Citizen Kane. I can never remember if it’s SCT or STC. MEmento.

Yeah, today was “Men with Sexy Voices.” I want to see Joe perform the flag gymnastic. You can tell he works out. You can also tell how shallow I am.... RIP RBG. I prayed she was immortal.

FJ! was an instaget and I spelled it correctly. Like many of you, I though spelling didn’t count as long as the pronunciation was the same. And let’s not get into Don/dawn. Alex said Ken J. is part of the team but didn’t specify that he’s part of the Clue Crew. This leads me to believe Ken will be Alex’s successor.

There is a Pantheon in Paris also but that isn’t relevant. When Alex said Zach couldn’t be there, I shouted at the tv “the only thing more important than being on Jeopardy! is being in the Olympics.”

Watching John on tonight’s episode. His girlfriend of 15 years has never been in his house. I’d rather die alone than have a “relationship” with a toothless hoarder.

Alex looks good. Glad to see him. I said The. Parthenon for FJ ! then realized that is in Greece. Isn’t it???

Forgot how entertaining Bob Verini is. And yes, Brad is bebopping and swaying all over the place today.

The Alec Guinness series from the 80s was more excellent than the recent excellent movie with Gary Oldman (Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy). Both available from my public library. I cannot believe it’s been 18/19 years since Claudia was on. I forgot how much I liked her.

I swear I recognized Brad Ritter in the gang...but I guess it wasn’t him.

I wish the entire 10th anniversary tournament was shown. I recognized Brad when all the contestants came out at the end, but only him. I couldn’t come up any “women” playwrights but I know Helman wrote before the 1980s.
