Welp, there goes Roey. I think he should have bet for the win, but I guess he didn’t like the category. No guess on final. Didn’t know there was a second Adolf, and even if I did, I would have thought 1962 was too late. He was the main organizer of the Holocaust. He escaped to South America after W...

Easy peasy FJ

Locked on in Charles Cotton --> Cotton Mather --> Increase Mather. Thought the fishing cabin was just noise.

I've hear of The Lottery, but you could've gave me all day & I wasn't coming up with Shirley Jackson. Went with Mary Shelley just to have something.

The last Volkswagen Beetle rolled off the assembly line in Mexico today. Nazi leader Adolf Hitler first formulated the concept for the Beetle as a “people’s car” (in German, Volkswagen ), a simple, cheap mass-produced mode of transportation for the nation. But it was VW’s engineering lead, Ferdinan...

Leonidas was pure WAG.
French & north? Went with Vermont.
They brought back Murphy Brown? Oh goody, I can miss it again!

So what I'm getting is that J! should stay away from anything with "lieder" in it.

Works for me. Gawd, what an awful category. Had padfoot for FJ. But I did pick up Bauhaus

Blank on FJ, pure WAG on Leonidas.

Oceania eh, Faust (movie Amadeus I coulda got)

knew it was Django someone, couldn't remember Reinhardt
obviously missed with water-based, had jerry-rigged & pathetic.

never knew amadeus was a broadway production It's not just a Broadway production, (opened in London first) it's brilliant theatre. It came out several years before the movie, and...well, people can wiki it if they're interested, (below) I'm just a big fan of the play. I'll give the movie credit - t...

Arte Johnson, famed cast member of Laugh-In, has died at 90.

and his schtick could never be done today.

Pre-called Machiavelli for FJ, got a teen level clue.
Shoulda got Adele, but her music is not in my area.

There's also a boss in Enter the Gungeon called the Gorgun, but the connection never registered since I didn't know the underlying myth.

In D&D, a gorgon is a completely unrelated monster, resembling a scaly, metallic bull with a petrification breath attack.

I thought the late end of his run was when contestants were first able to see what he could do..

Another jerry-rigger here. To me jury-rigged is incorrect as to me it suggests legal shenanigans.

Was stuck on Oceania for FJ. Since it was Canada Day, finally responded " What is Oceania eh"? to get to nine letters.

So much.for Holzhauser redefining the way J! is played. I thought this was a rerun at first with the contestants going top down.
Answered 'pathetic' for 'pitiful'. Poll question, please?
IGot FJ. Wonder what TPTB would've done if someone responded " What are Medusae"?

10/10

I would've hoped that the contestants were smart enough to realize that it couldn't be the UN as certain members would've cheered the attacks.
I was not disappointed.

But Camelot is a silly place...

Smiled when nothingburger & fake news came up as responses
