  1. When I saw that Mr. Peabody and Sherman was going to be a Jeopardy category on FB, I had my qualms.  When I heard their voices, I thought WTF?  Then I remembered this wasn't the Mr. Peabody and Sherman that I grew up with.  Sometimes it's a curse being a baby boomer. 

     

    Well, thank God somebody knew who the Brady Bunch was!  The contestant was young so it was obviously before his time. Interesting insight:  I was born in 1957 but I know about Charlie Chaplin, Buster Keaton, and Harold Lloyd--well before my time.

  2. The point of the show is for her to cook for her family and friends....I don't mind them but, you know the rest, lol

     

    I missed the good ole days when cooking shows didn't have a storyline.  I never remembered Julia Child having to cook for her book club or family football game.  She merely cooked while we watched in amazement.

  3. I felt slightly superior that I knew Hotel CaliforniaHotel California was a must have for any teen in the mid 1970's.  Susan missing this surprised me since she would have been in that demographic.  I had to stay at a physical rehab facility earlier this year.  On the menu was potato gems.  Imagine my disappointment when I was served tater tots.  Eether, either, tomato, tomahto...

  4. Right now, Cozi-Tv  has a superior line-up of shows and they rotate them faster than Me-tv does

     

    I get Cozi-TV through Dish Network.  I don't know if it's a Bible Belt thing (I live in TN) but on Saturdays and Sundays most of the day is devoted to Christian worship or reruns of Roy Rogers and Lone Ranger.  Do other Dish Network subscribers have the same problem?

  5. Three contestants who don't know much about sports.....

     

    Nor much about fish.  I wanted Susan to win because her life is so dull that she had to talk about Mad Men, her favorite show.  If she had won, her life would have been more exciting.

  6. Okay, so I couldn't stay away Friday night, but I did discover that Matt is slightly more tolerable if I don't actually look at him.

     

    But I still have to listen to his whiny voice.

     

    Here we go again with the "woman" categories.

  7. Also? It feels like a full hour of sucking up to one another...all of the ohhhs and ahhhhs and faaaaabulous (Jeff's accent) ...I just can't anymore lol

     

    I attempted to watch a few minutes today and had to put it on mute because all of  the self-congratulating and canned applause got on my fucking nerves.  Did Katie Lee have to sell her soul to the devil to be a cooking personality?

  8. Thanks, Matt for providing a visual aid (five fingers) to signify your five wins.  I can't wait for you to exceed 10 wins so that you can start using your toes.  The fact that he's only 23 surprised me for some reason.

  9. I hate that ad, and the guy in the ad. For one thing, that's not how addiction works. Even if you quit using your substance of choice, you're still mostly addicted to it. Its just a dumb concept, not to mention misleading.

     

    The guy in the ad is a smug asshole who doesn't know the addiction concept.  It's depressing to know such an ignoramus is in a leadership position.

     

    Does anybody else find it odd that a restaurant would have a fireman's pole (?) close enough to patrons to facilitate antacid advice from firefighters?  I'd never frequent such a place.

  10. None of the young pups knew the Partridge Family clue.  I was an early teen when they were popular.  Sigh.  Break out the prune juice and fiber bars!

     

    Someone should tell El Smirko that it's okay to be happy for a correct answer but fist pumping shows a self-aggrandizing ass who happens to be quick with the buzzer.   I used to play trivia with an ex-friend who bragged to neighboring tables when we won.  Her exaggerated squeals of glee and constant high fives made an outing with friends sheer torture.  For Pete's sake, the grand prize was  a $20.00 certificate at a Mexican restaurant, not the Publishers' Clearing House annuity!  There are sore losers and then there are sore winners.

  11. Recently I filed for bankruptcy.  Since then, I've been swamped with credit card offers, lines of credit for

    cars, and other opportunities to rebuild my credit.  All I can I say is kiss my ass!  No, I'm not interested in paying 25% interest for a car nor paying through the nose for credit cards to buy things I don't need.  Bankruptcy has taught me to rethink my priorities.  Shame on these unscrupulous companies for charging exorbitant rates to consumers!  Don't piss on my head and call it rain!

  12. Because M. can't smile; he can only grimace. And smirk. And fist pump. And generally appear to "not be having any fun unless I win at all costs."

     

    Matt looks like the silent film villain who gets to close down the orphanage.  All he needs is a mustache to twirl!

  13. This was an annoying game to watch. Why didn't they turn down Matt's microphone? He was way too loud. I jumped too when he gave his first answer. So did my dog!

     

    He needs to cut back on his caffeine, at least for the sake of the viewers.

  14. I'm really getting sick of Dylan and his always starting with the $800 or $1,600 clues. It's throwing off everyone's game, resulting in too many TS's or totally unanswered questions, which is wasting time and leaving too damned many clues on the board.

     

    For all of his board hopping tactics, it doesn't really help him in the long run.  Not if you only win with a shade past $5000.00.

  15. Yeah, I'm a die hard Bronco fan but Peyton's involvement with Skeevy John's Pizza really disappoints me.

     

    I live in the middle TN area where the TN Titans rule supreme.  Our Papa John's promotion is called "Titan Up."  I shudder to think about what slogans the CEO of Papa John's has for other teams:  Un-Bear-ably Good Pizza, Raven About Papa John's, Get Your Falcon Pizza at Papa John's.

     

    If I never hear the words meat sweats or awesome sauce again, I'd be delirious.

  16. Ha! Loving the '70's show today. Haven't watched for a long time so thought initially Drew had changed his hairstyle but then realized it's a throwback

     

    Yes, throw that hairstyle back!  I tuned in late yesterday and thought it was too late for April Fool's Day.

  17. I could only stand 15 minutes until I changed it for the baseball game.  Ugh.  I didn't like the storyline about the couple with the baby.  Wayyyyyyyy TMI

     

    The father's account of how he lost his virginity to the sofa was cringe-inducing.  Ick.  James Brolin announcing to the family about his granddaughter's first period.  Double ick.  Unless people want to kill time between Big Bang Theory and Scorpion by watching this mess, this show will be cancelled by Halloween  I hope.

  18. Next Celebrity Jeopardy: Tyne Daly and Tim Daly in the same game.  Add Alex's razor sharp wit and hilarity will ensue.  (Bill Daily is apparently still alive, too.)

     

    Was Carson Daly unavailable?  I don't know if this is possible but the staff needs to weed out the attention whores like Dancing Jennifer and Talia the Turd.  It's hard to enjoy watching when certain people's antics distract me from the game.

  19. And I'm tired of the constant dinner guests already.  The show is becoming more about them than the food.  The fake conversation.....ugh.

     

    There was one of her friends from the "book club" whom I wanted to slap senseless (a blonde with glasses).  She seemed to be aspiring for open mike night at Zany's. 

     

    Valerie:  This salad has bacon in it.

    Bitch Guest:  Well, bacon's my middle name!

     

    My sides are still hurting from laughing so hard at her bon mots.  *eye roll* If I had this woman for a friend, I'd be on trial for murder because I was ready to throttle her after five minutes.  Cutesy-poo is okay when you're five, not when you're 55.

     

    I realized that Valerie made biscotti (labor intensive) but the deal with pouring hot espresso over ice cream seems underwhelming.  Ina Garten has also done this.  The notion of being pressured to finish dessert before the ice cream melts sucks all the fun out of it.  Personally, I would prefer biscotti served with ice cream minus the espresso.
