I on the other hand would have gotten the entire category if I hadn’t forgotten the category every single time. 

I forgot the category on zodiac a couple of times.  I also said Southern Cross and unfortunately didn't even remember the category after that was wrong.

I got the entire categories of trees right and potpourri wrong.

I got the missed clue of Gulf of Aqaba.

I got the missed clues of Rameses, Beauregarde, Mambo, and Dolly Madison.

 

[Jeopardy! Season 40 (2023-2024)]

FJ was a wild ride for me.  I said Tesla, no Mendeleyev, wait that's the periodic table guy, Mendel, that's who I'm thinking of, wait maybe it's Linnaeus, no it's Mendel.  So, bottom line, got it right.

I got the missed clues of oath, Quebec, and A Quiet Place. 

So-so game.

Family members that disappear and you never hear about them again:

 

Richie had an older brother at one time on Happy Days

Judy Winslow- family matters

Brenda Walsh- 90210.  I know she I think went overseas or something like that but that was like the end of her.  She might have as well been dead.  

The Code Man Step by Step

 

Some that just come to mind from memory.  That might not even be accurate on my end 

I don't put Brenda in the same category because she at least actualy went somewhre, they mentioned her at least a few times after that, and nobody acted like she didn't exist.

Same with Cody.  They mentioned him.  He actually came back at a later pont.

 

But, yeah, Chuck Cunningham, Brendan on Step by Step, Judy on Family Matters, Carrie's sister on King of Queens. These people just all disappeared and Howard Cunninghma specifically said he had 2 children (Richie and  Joni) and Carrie's dad said he had one daughter.

I got Arno, but had no idea what the other half of that anagram pair was.

I didn't either, but there were only so many letter combos, and Oran made the most sense.  

[Jeopardy! Season 40 (2023-2024)]

I had  a terrible game.

I said Canterbury Tales for Final. it made sense to me. Here are tales.  Listen.

I got the missed clues of Milhouse, Phish, David Lee Roth, bitcoin, Lima/Mali, Arno//Oran, Mesa/Ames, verbose, and lob.

That list makes it look like I had a good game, but I think they just missed a LOT.

[Jeopardy! Season 40 (2023-2024)]

I got FJ.  Not confidently, but I got it.

I got the misssed clues of thistle, Dome of the Rock, and hourglass.

FJ was an instaget and I never even saw the movie.

I got the missed clues of Mauna Kea (after Mauna Loa), blackout, skittish, basic, and Daisy Jones and the Six (but to be fair I also answered that for the question before and would have used it for any answer I didn't know int he category).

[Jeopardy! Season 40 (2023-2024)]

I said 12 Angry Men, but have to admit i didn't think it was right.  Mostly because I assumed the play itself is way older than 2004 (I saw the original movie and I'm pretty sure it was in black and white) and didn't know if they were talking about a new play or a revival.

 

I got the missed clues of bass and June 25th.

I got the entire categories of kids lit and deep space right.

Given Amy's affinity for Little House, Laura could be a possibility. (And though it might take a long while, Amy would eventually coerce Sheldon into calling the kid Half Pint.)

Never happen. A kid has more than a half pint of blood and he wouldn't stand for the inaccuracy.
