Quarterfinal #3: Christopher Meloni, Sherri Shepherd and Katie Nolan

Puppies!  Great Pyrenees puppy!  Best category ever.

Not familiar with Katie Nolan but she was pretty good. After she mentioned her love of Jeopardy I was rooting for her.

Haven't watched SVU in years; Christopher Meloni with zero hair always slightly surprises me. 

Thank you for the puppies category, J! I needed that tonight.

I am inordinately pleased with the wombat question...on Wombat Wednesday, too!

She was the TV mom to my generation! 🏆

Impressed with Katie Nolan.  I have no idea what a sports comedy show would look like, nor would I ever be interested.

I was relieved when Sherri Shepherd switched from playing The Adversary to The Cheerleader, after which it was an enjoyable game — partly because it makes me feel smart.

Final Jeopardy had all the drama of a L&O finale — minus the murder.

She was a bit before my time, but I know of her.

The category "You're a homophone, Diane" was referring to what exactly?  it's been killing me.

[Phishbulb]

I guess because the answers were different variations on the spelling of "Diane"? There was a Diahann Carrol and a Dian Fossey, among others.

Right, lots of ways to spell Diane.  I still have this nagging feeling that the name of the category is a play on a quote from a movie or tv show

Just finished watching this. Oh my, is Sherri Shepherd always this annoying or was I simply not in the mood for her 'dramatics'? I have more patience than most people I know, ... yet, I was ready to throw my fist through the screen every time she opened her mouth. Yikes, what an attention seeker!

I'm a Christopher fan (won't divulge his best assets here LOL), and was fine with the results. Katie was great!

[Jaded]

@Bliss she can be really annoying and overly dramatic at times. I haven't seen this episode yet so I was wondering if she shared anything embarrassing about her son Jeffrey. During her time as a co-host on The View she was always sharing personal info of his even when he was a young child to the point where it made viewers uncomfortable and saying things for shock value about men/sex. During that same time she shared on national TV that she thought the world was flat. 

Believe it or not she's toned down her behaviors from back then a lot. The way you described her as acting on this Celeb J! episode isn't surprising though.

All the clues involved someone named "Diane" (various spellings) and involved a homophone ("Cannon" for "Canon", "Gorilla" for "Guerilla", etc)

Yes, I got that.  I thought maybe the title of the category was a take on a movie or TV quote.

I’ve never heard of Katie and I don’t even know what a sports humorist might be, but I felt really bad for her that she wasn’t a sports humorist mathematician.  Glad she pulled it out.

Sherri Shepherd.  I can only imagine what her talk show is like, but I’d rather not.

She demonstrated the worst kind of unappealing, unfunny attitude.
