Deb was beyond distracting. Ugh, when she squatted down so you couldn’t see her, I was thinking, “Dude! Calm down!”
Final was as Canadian as Canadian Bacon or French fries. My initial guess, before seeing anything, was Banting and/or Best, for insulin. I have never heard of the guy mentioned. Also, if one speaks Spanish, cough is “tos”.
Too bad for Diandra. Tyler recovered too late.
I noticed Ken has stopped reading extraneous information. So, wishes for family or other players won’t be heard for the vision impaired.
Good battle between the ladies, but Diandra had no chance of winning with that easy Final clue.
Tough stumpers, but someone should have known the “small” agency. I knew what university Bart Giamatti left when he became baseball commissioner. Smoking and dealing with Pete Rose led to his early demise.
The Tony award clue was a toughie, unless you watch the show every year.
I did fine in the Jeopardy game, but was struggling to find the English equivalent for ‘tussive’ as derived from Latin. In retrospect, I do recall seeing that term listed on cough syrups, but never paid much mind to it.
