Anne of Green Gables took place in Canada, specifically PEI. SpaT took place in the U.S. I knew FJ! was not AoGG, but darned if I could come up with anything else.

Congratulations to Amy! She is a true champion.

Andrew said he and Margaret bonded over food so they are having dinner at a Korean restaurant. No hint of romance, just 2 foodies enjoying dinner.

FJ! was an instaget. We vacationed in Edinburgh Scotland in 2018. One Saturday we took the train to Dunbar to visit friends. We had tickets that night for the Rolling Stones concert. Got to the train station in Dunbar to return to Edinburgh. There is only one set of train tracks at that station and we got on the wrong train. That train was not bound for Edinburgh but going in the wrong direction bound for Newcastle. Train station at Newcastle is lovely and the stationmasters were very kind to us. That’s all I saw Newcastle.

I knew FJ! wasn’t sci fi because the movie The Duellists had Keith Carradine dueling (ha!). I can see him in his white shirt. There was absolutely no way to parse out the answer. A true case of either you know it or you didn’t.

No clue as to FJ! I said Romans, then changed to Corinthians, then maybe Acts, then time was called. I thought Hebrews was OT. I hope Sam wins today just so each player will have won at least one game.

Wait, why won’t Ken be hosting in January??? How could Fort Myers have never been an answer???

Really. That’s a famous phrase?

What is Amy’s tattoo? Someone said Ozma but other than the Wizard of Oz, I don’t know what that is. Got John Dean, although I was only 12 during Watergate.

I could see Mattea trying to ring in, but Andrew was just a nanosecond quicker. How did she know those county seats? I never heard of most of them and I’m from the U.S. She does know A LOT.

FJ! was an instaget. I love London so was thrilled with the category.

Thank you <insert favorite deity>. Now I don’t know who to cheer for in the finals. I like them all!

I have never heard of Minorca and never sussed to Majorca being “bigger,”. I guess I truly am a geographic idiot.

Based on today’s game, I predict Mattea to win it all. Amy and Matt seemed disengaged, although as someone unthread said, Matt might be under the weather.

Doubtful. Annoying people don’t have the self awareness to know they are annoying!

Monday’s game: it is not Trooping of the Colour. It’s Trooping the Colour. Sam looks like Scott Bakula. Mattea is still tres annoying with the hand gestures.

Same thing happened to me. No games scheduled on the DVR. I quickly remedied that!

No game in Chicago today?

I forgot how flat Jackie’s affect is. She’s the anti rowan.

Instaget FJ! Lost Horizon. Novel by James Hilton, lovely film by Frank Capra starring Ronald Colman.

Thank you <insert favorite deity >.

For a minute I pictured a movie starring Brian Jones from the Stones and he bought the house and was giving tours…..

So sad that Ryan did not get through. I don’t remember the winner’s name but I remember she seemed a bit head in the clouds during her appearances. I found yesterday’s game tougher than regular games although FJ! was an instaget.

Theoretically the final could be Amy, Matt, and Mattea?

My mind automatically says “Alex Trebek” after the pause after “and now the host of Jeopardy!” Not weird at all. For how many years did you we hear Johnny Gilbert say Alex’s name? Do you have favorite past contestants? Mine are Alex Jacobs, Austin, and Buzzy. Also Julia Collins.
