Are we sure that Mike Richards isn't already a [blandly] handsome android?Perv Griffin wrote: ↑Sat Aug 07, 2021 12:25 pm
I didn't mind Mike Richards when he hosted, but despite his behind-the-scenes involvement, he seemed to me to just be a generic Ryan Seacrest type that could eventually be replaced by a handsome android.

Re: Tuesday, May 25, 2021 Game Recap and Discussion (SPOILERS)
I got Faulkner on a stone cold guess. "County" is the TOM, though it isn't obvious. It looks like the book in the clue is Intruder in the Dust, which isn't on my flashcards, even though just about everything else by Faulkner is. Wow, that is one stealthily hidden TOM. I went with Richard ...

Re: How Did Aaron Rodgers Do as Host?
He may have a lot of respect for the game, but I doubt he would be able to host the show and play as quarterback at the same time because it is possible that he has to play a big game on the day of taping, so Ken still holds the top spot for me as the new host. I think it is highly unlikely that th...

Re: Friday, February 19, 2021 Game Recap and Discussion (SPOILERS)
Nothing about KJ's last show? That surprised me a little. I figured we'd at least get a "That's all for me, you'll see Mike Richards on Monday." This surprised me also. I even played all the way through the credits expecting a parting quip. I wonder if Ken knew it was going to be his last...

It's always fun when the correct response is a contestant's name such as happened in CELEBRITY NAMES IN COMMON. Ken has his own phraseology sometimes and I liked his, "Those are they" today. Yeah, I think someone(s) on the writing staff likes The Crown as that Lithgow clue had me at least...

Re: Ken Jennings as a Host Poll
I posted in another thread that he is doing better than I thought he would and I would not mind if he got the full time job. Having said that, on here, I voted that he's ok but I'd like to see what some others do. Right now, all we have to compare him to is Trebek. He's not that good, maybe no one ...

It was so weird not Having Alex as the Host but i thought Ken did Fairly well. i thought he may have been reading the clue a little too quickly, but the contestants understood him and thats all that matters. This is where Ken's extensive experience moderating NAQT matches was made most clear; they ...

For some reason, I thought of "banana clip", but that didn't sound right, and I clammed. Apparently it's a women's hair clip or something? Never seen one in my life, but heard the phrase, and thought it might fit. Actually, you probably have if you have even a passing familiarity with LeV...

I understood the wording of FJ perfectly, but still passed up El Salvador because El Salvador is NOT English . Its’ official name is the Republic of El Salvador, which makes both the listing, and subsequently the wording of the clue, dicey, IMO. I'm not following your logic. First of all it is list...

Re: Reruns to start May 4th
My guess is that they are postponing the Teachers Tournament to May 18-29, so the season can run until June 12. Hopefully, the Teachers Tournament will air at some point. I'm hoping it's not like when Wheel pulled two weeks because one promoted Carnival Cruise Lines and the other promoted Collette ...

Presumably you have not seen either any of the Fast and Furious films, or the more recent DC movies, in which she plays Wonder Woman.
Incidentally, as she is Israeli and not French, the T in her last name is not silent.
