For Final, Mr. Rogers never crossed my mind. The quote about people helping you become who you are led me to This Is Your Life and Ralph Edwards.

Even if the category was TV PERSONALITIES OF THE PAST, I would have said "Who was Regis Philbin?"

She was a little slow in reading the clues but all 61 got played so no harm, no foul. Snowflakes will be relieved to know she didn’t make any political comments.

PS: Define "Snowflake".

My first thought on FJ was Bon Jovi, but I made the switch to the correct band. Felt "optimistic anthem" was too much of a giveaway. Could have been worded: Their 1988 Greatest Hits album was the first by an American act to log 600 total weeks on the BillBoard Album charts. Don't know how much more...

Ken is better off as a Master Mind rather than a Chaser. So many NHO's for me in this episode. Girls Who Code is the name of a company? 227 is the name of a TV show? I sound like TPH right now. 227 ran from 1985-1990 and was a majority-black sitcom set in Washington DC. It starred Marla Gibbs and J...

Knew today's FJ cold.

KJ was a welcome relief from the humdrum of Biden's inauguration.

Coming into this late: I was very surprised to see Jeopardy choosing Aaron Rodgers to be a guest host. If they want to go the football route, this guy has much more game show hosting experience. https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nfl/nfl-insider-notes-wink-martindale-deserves-more-head-coaching-buzz-...

No chance that I would get FJ right.

So what would you like to see the last two weeks of the year?

The 2011 Ken vs. Brad vs. Watson Challenge, followed by the semi-finals/finals of the 2005 UToC.

Knew FJ cold.

Could NOT believe that two people said "Salzburg" which is STILL IN AUSTRIA!!!!


PS: FJ! in OKC was pre-empted due to a COVID-19 related press conference by Gov. Kevin Stitt (R). Not for the first time, unfortunately.

And my FJ streak ends at 15, for something I should have gotten. Went The Pink Panther, even though I knew that was way earlier.

1975 saw The Return of the Pink Panther,so you weren't (all that) far off.


Got FJ, though it's far less of a favorite with me than the J! writers.

What was the TOM for Little League on We Are the Champions for $400?


Lach Trash: honky-tonk, The Sun Also Rises. Also got the Breakfast of Champions DD.

Williamsport, PA

Interesting that J! would reference Bob Barker on a day when his 2015 April Fools Day walk-on cameo was rerun by CBS.

Nice to see a ZOOM reference, but where's the 1999-2005 reboot?

How do they determine the strongest link? If two people both go 3/3 in their questions and neither banks money, who is stronger?

On the original series, # of questions correct, ties broken by how much could conceivably have been banked.

Nice to see OZZY'S BONEYARD mentioned on J! today. Nailed FJ! today. They must have wanted a triget today. From someone who would have titled the category SECOND JOBS and worded the clue so that it was gender-free. After all, how many early 20th C. educators did Italy produce that have celebrity sta...

This FJ was Instaget for me.

For the record, Sao Tome e Principe is Portuguese, not Spanish.

They have eight unplanned blank weeks so this takes care of two of them. I suspect they will show more of James to fill time but that is just a guess. They could show UToC from 2005 as this would take them to the end of August, then encore the final weeks of both the ToC and the 2020 College tourne...

Seriously, J! writers?!?!?!? MARY TYLER MOORE at a higher dollar value than SUPERSTORE?

I saw literally no way to figure out Ethiopia on Jackals for $600. Someone explain that clue?

Abyssinia: Pavlov for Ethiopia.

Spoiler

I went with Dickens via Miss Havisham.... putting my ignorance on display here, how would one arrive at Charlotte Brontë?

In real life, CB worked as a governess and HATED it.
