Does anybody know the name of the contestant that Josh Gruenberg mentioned that appeared on the show, back in 1997, and didn’t make it to the Final Jeopardy! Round, because that player finished in the negative?
This was a weak group tonight.
Another low score today and all 3 DDs were missed resulting our seventh skunking of the season. Hopefully we could nail a Daily Double tomorrow.
And hopefully, the Easy Material for the Champions will come back.
Low scores again today. Either the contestant pool is shallow or the fact that Jamie probably never played the Amazon trail after confusing the boa constrictor with an anaconda.
The leader curse continues as always after two people in January ran streaks. Maybe Josh could break the curse.
What’s the difference between a boa constrictor and an anaconda?
most Boas have a length of 12-18 feet long and they give birth to live young. I think that might be one difference between constrictor and anaconda. Boas encircle their prey and squeeze them by suffocation.
I do not like clues like the second Daily Double, where you know exactly what they are looking for, but not how to word it properly.
I second that sentiment!
I concur.
