Game Recap for Show #7689, 2018-02-01

Ryan Fenster game 4.

OPENING REMARKS
Alex: Thank you, Johnny. Thank you, ladies and gentlemen, for making me feel so welcome. Good to have you with us. I think it's safe to say after three lopsided wins that we can now start referring to our young champion, Ryan, as someone who is really good. But no matter how good our champions have been in the past, they wind up being replaced by somebody who defeats them. Sara and Justin are here to attempt that today. I'll wish all three of you good luck and put you to work now in the Jeopardy! Round. Here are the categories for you...

TALKIN' FOOTBALL (0/5)
LITERARY TERMS (5/5, including 1 correct Daily Double)

GEOGRAPHY 101 (5/5)
EASY COURSE LOAD (4/5) (Alex: And, of course, it's an...)

CONTESTANT INTERVIEWS



Alex: Justin Earnshaw is an English teacher from Cheyenne, Wyoming. Tell me how you met your wife.

Justin: We met on stage. Downtown Cheyenne has the annual old-fashioned melodrama. It's an old-time vaudevillian show. I was playing the hero, my first stage role. She was the "hero-iney", and by the end, we fell in love and made plans to get married, so it all worked out.

Alex: Good for you.




Alex: All right, Sara Helmers, attorney from Washington, D.C. Studying American Sign Language. Are you good at it?

Sara: Getting there.

Alex: All right. I can win this game.

[Sara repeats the phrase in American Sign Language.]

Alex: Okay.




Alex: [Referencing Sara] She's looking at you, champ, she's looking at you.

Ryan: Welcome to try.

Alex: She's got your number. Ryan Fenster is our champion. We keep introducing you as a banker.

Ryan: Yeah.

Alex: What kind of banking are we talking about?

Ryan: I am the vault teller for--can I say the bank?

Alex: Sure.

Ryan: For Columbia Bank in Seattle. And it is my job to manage all of the cash in the branch.

Alex: Oh, you're the guy I wanna know.

Ryan: I know, I know. Everybody wants to know me.

Alex: Okay, all right.

TRIPLE STUMPERS IN THE JEOPARDY! ROUND

TALKIN' FOOTBALL $800: These "penalties" are simultaneous violations by the offense & defense that cancel each other out
(Alex: And they are called [*]. Let's look at the $1,000 clue, just for the fun of it.)

TALKIN' FOOTBALL $1000: (Jimmy of the Clue Crew presents the clue from U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis.) As Minneapolis' U.S. Bank Stadium prepares to host Super Bowl LII, I'm looking at the Ring of Honor, with names from this defensive line that took the Vikings to four Super Bowls
[Audience laughter]
(Alex: If you guys ring in and get this one, I will die. Who are the [*]? We're gonna take a break. I have to talk to them.)

FINAL JEOPARDY! CATEGORY
U.S. AUTHORS

VENUSIAN MONOLOGUES/MARTIAN CHRONICLES
Four-fifths for first place.
Justin: Wager $10,601 to cover Ryan.
Ryan: You have to wager $1,801 to cover Sara's doubled score, but certainly no more than $4,799, so as to force Sara to be right to have a chance at winning.
Sara: Consider risking between $4,801 and $4,999. This will top a $0 wager by Ryan while still beating Justin on the Triple Stumper (should Justin wager to cover Ryan's doubled score).

FINAL JEOPARDY! CLUE
In his 1958 essay "Essentials of Spontaneous Prose", he compared a writing technique to a jazz musician's style

FINAL SCORES

(Alex: I think somebody once commented on his bestseller, "That's not writing, that's typing.")
...
(Alex: You are correct, sir, even though you misspelled his last name.)

...
(Alex: Ryan, you're in the lead with $13,400, but that score is about to change. A few moments ago, all three of you will recall I said there was no harm, no foul, you all missed out on that clue that we were going for a response of "what is [*]", Justin, you responded, "What is destitute?" It turns out that we could have accepted that as a correct response, and if we had, the other two players would not have been allowed to ring in, so you're picking up $4,000, Sara you're getting $2,000, and Ryan you also are getting $2,000. You're still in the lead.)

The game had its moments. Ryan pulled off the imitation of Mr. Burns with his catchword and the skunkegory in TALKIN’ FOOTBALL was funny and sad at the same time. The players kept up the no-go on sports when they could not identify the BLACK HISTORY NOTABLES woman in the photo who won the 1957 Wimbledon.

ADJECTIVES $2000 went from a neg across the board to just a +2K for Justin.
The clue: If you can’t pay certain fees, a court may declare you this synonym for needy
J: destitute
R: penniless
S: impoverished
A: indigent

Ryan took himself out of the lead on DD3 when even with $2K on the board at clue 30 he could have insured that he had the lead. It worked out fine for him with the sole solve of the FJ! clue and his misspelling of the name was close enough.

I copied Sara’s line of thinking in taking “jazz” in the clue to go too far back. Near the end of think time I was getting warmer as I thought of staying in the 1950s and that J! likes Ginsberg.

Ryan can claim the top spot on the TOC ladder with any kind of win tomorrow. A loss and he is still behind two players.

It was Ginsberg who described Kerouac's style as "spontaneous bop prosody". The word "authors", though, in the category led me to favor Kerouac.

The word "prose" suggested to me Kerouac.

I felt a little vindicated when I managed to pull both the Wimbledon winner and the Peary co-explorer after coming across both of them during readings/study...

... and then embarrassed that even after 2 years living in MSP I couldn't conjure Purple People Eaters (which I thought was the general name for Viking fans, and not a historic part of the team).

So Ryan continues with the bad DD betting - but still came out on top. Some folks have all the luck.

But, it will be interesting to see if he learned from a near disaster if the situation presents itself in future games.

I knew Fitz was long dead in 58, but hadn't the slightest clue who else it could be. I said Williams, just to say something (yes, I know he isn't an author). Wouldn't have got to Kerouac with 50 guesses.

I know I shouldn't laugh at the contestants but that football category had me rolling. 'Option' for 200 was kinda mean, but Landry -> Cowboys a stand-and-stare? I knew we were in for some comedy. I had Purple People Eaters 3 seconds into the $1000 clue, and I knew there was no way in hell they were going to get it, then Alex literally says what I was thinking and I was doubled over. I'm so glad we didn't run out of time in that round :lol:

I didn't recognize the essay, and couldn't think of a jazz term, but jazz -> music made me think of beat, and my default Beat author is Kerouac. That can't have been the right way to solve that clue (I'm sure the term prdates 1958), but I'll take it.

One of these times my go-to author when I don't have any better idea, J.D. Salinger, will pay off. Not tonight though. At least the time frame could work, but given his reclusiveness I wasn't convinced he was the type to write (and publish) essays. Vonnegut was my backup. Never would have guessed Kerouac, although he makes perfect sense in hindsight.

I was booing my TV by the time we got past the Landry clue in the football category. Come on, that's a gimme!

Sports-likers have such an amazing opportunity to clean up if they get a sports category. The questions are almost always easy and your fellow contestants probably wouldn't recognize a football.

BTW, when's the last time we had an entire stand-and-stare category? I feel like it was recent-ish.

Coryat: $38,000
45 R/2 W
DD: 3/3
FJ: :(
LT: the entire Talkin' Football category, Althea Gibson, Matthew Henson, atomic clock (DD), nonpartisan, Ugly Betty (DD), thirtysomething

It's always interesting to see a game like tonight's, where all three players look relatively strong but there is a lot of LT. Maybe it was just similar strengths and weaknesses among the contestants.

"Jazz" led to me to Fitzgerald, even though I was pretty sure he was dead long before 1958 (turns out he died in 1940). Kerouac crossed my mind very briefly, but I didn't make the jazz-beat connection strongly enough to make the switch.

I'll be checking the box in this week's poll that says I collected $3,000 lach trash in Talkn' Football.
After the first stand and stare, I resorted to merely writing the answer down on my LT column as Alex read each clue, rather than waiting to see if any contestant got it.

Another (big) overbet from Ryan on Final. Wondering if he pulled a wheelhouse category or is just getting greedy as his game experience increases.


Was there a scoring glitch in Sara's display screen just before they went to break for FJ? When I wrote down the scores to tabulate wagering, I had her score as $8600 instead of $6600. It's always a challenge to get all three scores written down in the brief camera shot of the scores before Alex announces the Final Category.

"Amuse bouche" seemed nearly Liederkranz level obscure for the top box. I can't believe ANYone knew that, especially since it has zero other hits in the archive. and "hors d'oevures" seemed like a perfectly cromulent neg. Can we poll it?

Honestly, I didn't recognize anything in that Easy Course Load category at all. HOW DO YOU PEOPLE KNOW ALL THIS FANCY CRAP?!

The football category was a hoot. I thought "option play" was a very obscure start, so I can understand the performance there.

If you don't know the word "patronus", then that could be ANY title character.

None of the words in this FJ! meant anything to me. Could be anyone for all I know.

Look at my .signature. The second quote in particular. (The first quote is my response about Ryan's performance)

Amazement at the football category response also. I at least knew that Landry was the Cowboys! (The rest were stand and stare from me as well, though.)

I went with Ginsberg for FJ, then realized they seemed to have prose in mind rather than poetry, and switched to Kerouac in time.

The wagering vikings are going to have a heart attack over Ryan's bet on DD3 (vikings emphatically not being capitalized here).

I like most sports, except football. If I had remembered a certain Simpsons episode, I would have gotten the Cowboys. If I had been on that show Alex would be dead because I did get the last one. I did not know FJ , so my answer would have to be Kebert Xela.
