How is Scandinavian Arctic Explorer from 1906 not Pavlovian for Amundsen?

Comments like this make me wonder if you actually watched the show.

Can you elucidate more specifically how I am uninformed?

LOL, just LOL at Hawaii Five-O being a soap opera created by Agnes Nixon.

Didja know that Hershey Felder is the common-law husband of Kim Campbell, the only woman prime minister of Canada, 21 years his senior?

The game should come with a warning for the board member who does not like things such as ad libs and a movie character impression. Others will find it refreshing that the players are relaxed enough to have fun even in an event with big stakes in play. There's only one? Like! It seemed to me Colby ...

Glenda: also the mascot for Plan 9 from Bell Labs

The witch is Glinda, not Glenda.

Named after L. Frank Baum's daughter. Look that up in your Funk & Wagnall's.

I couldn't believe how easy Final Jeopardy was.

I got Goodyear pretty fast but thought about Carver for a few seconds.

I had no hope on FJ. I would have needed to start with the soldiers name. Trying only to come up with a port of entry with a color in its name give me too much to work through in only 30 seconds. And brown isn't really a color that was on my radar. I was trying to work through the primary colors in ...

Another missed opportunity..."What's up, Doc?" is a question in itself

No no no no no. Jeopardy contestants are expressly instructed that if the correct answer to something is "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf" the correct response is "What is Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf."

I can't hear the name "Xanadu" without thinking of the Rush song. I can't hear it without thinking about that movie title song recorded by Olivia Newton-John and Electric Light Orchestra. A triple stumper? I was thinking that was so easy. The Pony Express was a relay race. What else could it be?

Why does JCPenney always sheep? They have very few stores left.

My friends would rather admit to shopping at thrift stores than Sears or JCPenney.

I insta got Mariah Carey and pushed skip on my PVR because I didn't want to waste another second thinking about it. If JB had done my recent TD about Kirsten Dunst featuring recording artists from New Jersey, he would have known that Whitney Houston couldn't have been the answer to tonight's clue. A...

Okay, I should speaketh not where I haveth not knowledge. Then I got it from the year and nothing else.

Unless the clue mentioned top of the strip or something.

Was there something in the clue to point to Circus Circus over New York New York?

Opened in 1966? NYNY was more like 1996.

if you are up on your casinos and years they opened i guess it would have been a breeze

Also, I doubt they have $5 blackjack at NYNY.

And who was helped out by the reference to "The Red Badge of Courage" in that Brady Bunch episode where Peter eavesdrops and learns what Greg's overdue library book is?

The innominate situation was a factor again today. The male Challenger desperately needed to get Within 50% of the Champs total. He was frustrated by the female Challenger repeatedly eating his lunch. Even though she was not in a position to win. If the female Challenger had stayed clam on that $12 ...

I was cheering for Caroline. What a lovely woman! The innominate situation came into play today. If Caroline had held back toward the end of the double jeopardy round, there would have been a chance of avoiding a runaway. As FJ turned out, it wouldn't have mattered. And of course Caroline came out a...

I am mad as hell because I got Greenwich Village wrong because that contestant started in the middle of the category with that clue. If the category had been played straight down, I would have known the gimmick by that point and not have been distracted by the reference to Houston Street. If I could...

I have sheeped my way almost to the bottom!

Allow me to celebrate my 4/4 singletons now, as I suspect I'm going to get my comeuppance on the Jane Austen question.

I blurted out the Field Museum before realizing that’s Chicago’s history museum.

Natural history museum. Not to be confused with the famous and fabulous Chicago History Museum.
