853fisher December 14, 2021 Share December 14, 2021 (edited) Today's gameplay was much more like it than most of last week! The categories were pretty good for me too. I had to laugh because I didn't meet my own high hopes for "Gems & Jewels," then on my way back to the kitchen after watching the game knocked over a book I was packing for donation: "Jewelry & Gems: More than Just a Buying Guide." Alright, universe, you win. I'll keep it. I live in San Francisco but don't know very much about USF, so I looked up the ranking mentioned. US News & World Report has them tied at #1 in student ethnic diversity with three other schools. When Mayim prompted JP with "your university is #1 in something very specific" and he just said "diversity," I thought that was pretty general, although he did a fine job speaking briefly about the Jesuits' educational philosophy. I was expecting something trivial or arcane given the setup. Speaking of Mayim, I am surprised by how strongly I've disliked her since we had Ken back. I won't keep belaboring the point, but I will say just once more that I am disappointed both that she offers so many clumsy readings and that apparently there is no one on set interested or empowered enough to have her re-record them, which even Alex needed from time to time. One I noticed today was "'Earth' used to refer to certain oxides, hence this term for samarium and friends." That was clearly supposed to be "used to" with a soft "s," as in "Mayim used to be on 'Big Bang Theory,’" but she read it with a hard "s," like "gasoline is used to power cars." Did nobody catch that? Did nobody care? Is Mayim reading the clues for the first time on stage? Was she never hooked on phonics? Yes, I know it's hardly the end of the world, but I feel we can reasonably expect better from this show. A bare minimum qualification should be actually understanding the clues you’re reading, and conveying a sense of the same. Ken certainly hasn’t been making these errors.

I missed two each in British humor, lit and fossible words, and one in modern shorthand, so I did not have a good first round. In DJ, I only ran geography, and blew the entire sidekicks category. I missed seven across the remaining categories. To top it off, I had no clue for FJ (I knew it wasn't Mary Queen of Scots, but had no earthly idea who it was). So I'm not at all off to a good start in the semifinals. And I was rooting for Katie, so I'm not off to a good start in terms of contestants I favor winning, either.

MrAtoz December 14, 2021 Share December 14, 2021 I think what it means is that, prior to 1707, England and Scotland remained two separate, independent kingdoms that both happened to have the same monarch. The Acts of Union in 1707 made them into a single nation, Great Britain, so that Scotland was no longer independent. Anne, who had been both Queen of England and Queen of Scotland, became Queen of Great Britain. 7 7 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/121652-jeopardy-season-38-2021-2022/page/47/#findComment-7174804

853fisher December 15, 2021 Share December 15, 2021 (edited) By my count, 18/58 clues went without a correct answer (16/55 if you exclude Daily Doubles). I took to heart the thoughtful comments about people with specialized knowledge bases and how that might affect performance in a general knowledge quiz, and I trust that the cream will rise to the top in the end. This is still not the kind of tournament semifinal game I want to watch. I have been extremely underwhelmed and I don’t think I want them to try this concept again. I did enjoy the Counties category, and ran it. I have always been fascinated by them, maybe because they seemed to give a bit more local insight than studying whole states, yet more manageably than learning about every city. One of the big fourth grade projects was to visit a different county in our state and make a diorama, but I think my interest predated that. I suppose it might be called a fixation, but it’s come in handy! Mayim might use what seems to be one of her favorite phrases lately and call it “very specific.” ;) Edited December 15, 2021 by 853fisher 5 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/121652-jeopardy-season-38-2021-2022/page/47/#findComment-7175501

The Photoshop TS was quite surprising, too. Enough with the "women authors" crap! I almost ran the first round, but joined the contestants in being stumped by Humphry Davy and I also couldn't come up with Tolkien's name in time. In DJ, though, I only ran the vocabulary category. I missed the first three in pop culture, so I thought I was going to blow the category (as I sometimes do; I'm very hit and miss in my pop culture knowledge), but I got the next two. I also missed three in authors, but just one each in the rest.

It made me incredibly sad that Henry Fonda was a TS, especially since one of the movies mentioned was Mr. Roberts. Can someone enlighten me as to why Alisa bet anything on FJ? Or actually, why any of them bet anything on FJ? 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/121652-jeopardy-season-38-2021-2022/page/47/#findComment-7176972
ams1001 December 16, 2021 Share December 16, 2021 70% / 47% / 58% Ran Whirled Menu and Nuclear Physics. In the rest of the first round I missed one each in Professor and Prequels, two in 4-Syllable Words and A Cut Above, and three in California history. The rest of my second round…was basically the opposite. No FJ and my only TSes were Shepherd's Pie and Viola Davis. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/121652-jeopardy-season-38-2021-2022/page/47/#findComment-7177160
Browncoat December 16, 2021 Share December 16, 2021 I also said Wyoming for FJ, but wasn't confident. I don't think the correct state would have come to me if I'd sat here all night. I didn't get any TS, either, although there were a couple that I should have. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/121652-jeopardy-season-38-2021-2022/page/47/#findComment-7177216
Katy M December 16, 2021 Share December 16, 2021 i said TX. I would have never guessed ND in a million years. I got the TS of shepherd's pie and Viola Davis. I got the entire category of menu right and the entire category of cut above wrong. Another bad night, but I started off sort of well. I had a Czech friend. She moved about 10 years ago. Glad she wasn't watching this with me, because I only got one in that category. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/121652-jeopardy-season-38-2021-2022/page/47/#findComment-7177233

BuckeyeLou December 16, 2021 Share December 16, 2021 The Hubby said South Dakota(thinking of TR on Mt. Rushmore) and I said Colorado. So, we were in the general area... 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/121652-jeopardy-season-38-2021-2022/page/47/#findComment-7177740
stonehaven December 16, 2021 Share December 16, 2021 I said Colorado too...and I also screamed out Viola Davis. "Murder" hasn't been off the air that long for it to already be forgotten?? I often wonder what these celebs think when they are triple stumper clues on Jeopardy. ..and I don't mean to be snarky or nasty but this Professors' tournament seems to seriously be lacking in brain power. The people all seemed nice but way, way too many wrong answers or non-answers. 6 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/121652-jeopardy-season-38-2021-2022/page/47/#findComment-7178169
blueray December 16, 2021 Share December 16, 2021 I said Wyoming for FJ, which of course was wrong (but Ed agreed). I was thinking it had to be a state with cowboys. Also the show scared me as I thought they were going to spoil it right before FJ. They played a preview for tomorrow's episode but I was to far from the remote. Luckily it just said and tonight's winner. As it was a fairly close game. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/121652-jeopardy-season-38-2021-2022/page/47/#findComment-7178432

"Murder" hasn't been off the air that long for it to already be forgotten?? I often wonder what these celebs think when they are triple stumper clues on Jeopardy. Also there were so many commercials for HTGAWM when it was on, you couldn't help but see that Viola Davis was on it, even if you didn't watch the show (or maybe it's just in my area that in an hour of TV you would see 18 commercials for it). I always feel bad for the celebrities who are TSs. I feel like I would be embarrassed. But I am also not remotely someone who would engage in any activity that makes me well known and I am easily embarrased. Maybe they are just sitting in their multimillion dollar homes and not caring 🤷♀️ 1 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/121652-jeopardy-season-38-2021-2022/page/47/#findComment-7178667
PBnJay December 16, 2021 Share December 16, 2021 Once again Mayim doesn't bother to tell the players that, when they find a DD, they can bet up to the highest amount on the board if they don't have a lot of money. It's her job to tell them that. And she never does. 15 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/121652-jeopardy-season-38-2021-2022/page/47/#findComment-7178786

30 Helens December 16, 2021 Share December 16, 2021 I know a lot about Teddy Roosevelt and should have known the answer, but the Rough Riders part had my brain stuck on San Juan Hill and I got confused. A little more time and I would have gotten there. Anyway… glad Ed won. He seems like a very happy person and I appreciate that. I would sign up for a class from him. 10 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/121652-jeopardy-season-38-2021-2022/page/47/#findComment-7179017
