Final Jeopardy: World Mammals (2-4-20)
Here are 13 more triple stumpers from the 2/6/2020 Jeopardy! game:
WHERE DOES IT HURT? ($400) Hepatalgia
MONUMENTAL TELEVISION ($600) This Kansas “City” that attracts western-loving tourists has a life-size statue of Marshal Dillon from “Gunsmoke”
($1000) A statue of this Jackie Gleason character graces the New York Port Authority Bus Terminal
IN THE ENVIRONMENT ($800) It’s another name for a winemaker
NEWER WORLD HERITAGE SITES ($400) UNESCO mentioned the picturesque & romantic movements when it added this English “district” beloved by Coleridge
($2000) In 2018 UNESCO added Ivrea, an industrial commune near Turin where this Italian company made typewriters, not cooking oils
HELLO! ($1200) Unlike a more popular synonym, welina means “greetings” in this language but does not mean “goodbye”
($2000) Also a dance, this word is commonly used as a Swahili greeting
I ALSO COMPOSE FILM MUSIC ($1200) Anyone who has seen “Birdman” can guess that its composer Antonio Sanchez is mostly known for playing these instruments
($1600) This man has composed music for some of the movies he’s directed like “Flags of Our Fathers” & “Mystic River”
($2000) In the 1930s this Russian composed “Peter & the Wolf” & scored the movie “Alexander Nevsky”

($2000) This admiral’s tombstone at Arlington National Cemetery calls him the “Father of the Nuclear Navy”
Answers to the Sneak Peek clues — IRRITABLE OWL SYNDROME:
($200) Like others, this owl familiar of Harry Potter perished in “Deathly Hollows”
($400) This owl named for its shrill cry gets very irritable when it is mobbed by the songbird it normally preys on
($600) It’s safe to say Woodsy Owl would be peeved if you did this; he did as us to “give a hoot” & not to do it
($800) Mr. Owl never does quite figure out exactly how many licks it takes to get to the center of one of these lollipops
($1000) When Winnie the Pooh & Piglet go to see Owl’s tree house in this forest, the wind knocks the tree over

Wish there was a video of Final Jeopardy but i’m glad you had this on here that told about it. BREAKING NEWS about the IOWA CAUCUS voting came on right when Final Jeopardy came on and i couldn’t see the results. Thank you for telling about it.
October 3, October 8, October 18, November 28, December 2, December 24, January 16, January 21, January 31, now February 4, you know what those dates all have in common this season, do you?
On the Coleridge clue, he, Wordsworth & Robert Southey are the 3 most well-known Lake Poets. Out of curiosity, I looked up “lake poet” on J-Archive and it appears that Wordsworth is the answer to the majority of clues that mention Lake Poets or Lake District.
Robert Southey rarely gets a clue. If he does, it’s about The Three Bears, chickens coming home to roost or the fact that Wordsworth succeeded him as Poet Laureate.
2/4/20 did not air on WSAZ Huntington,WV. We saw 2/3/20 again
This was a tough game.
It was unfortunate that none of the daily doubles were nailed today. Hopefully it will be nailed tomorrow.
It was difficult material. I wonder if some clues were from the unnecessary GOAT tournament games.
Wow tons of triple stumpers and a lot of hard material. Low scores today. I mean those daily doubles were not that hard and I knew Plymouth by heart. But honestly a kiwi? That’s a harmless fruit and not an animal. Honestly VJ, that response from Kathryn has got to be a joke right? I thought we had stronger opponents today but today’s performance was a disappointment. Congrats to travis but he will have to build up on his win.
A kiwi is a bird, strongly associated with New Zealand. Many proposals to replace their current flag included a kiwi, one famously with laser eyes.
Today was a difficult game material. The total was $12,600 going into Final Jeopardy for 3 players. The scores were even worse than October 3rd 2019. We had 5 clues unrevealed, 37 correct responses, and 18 triple stumpers. Let’s hope it will be better tomorrow.
