    I went with Harrison Ford in FJ too, but perhaps I’ll have better luck with today’s FJ.

  2. Jason says:

    I’m only halfway through, and I said, aloud, “Yuck!” I don’t even know how many TS there were in this first round alone. This reminds me of last week with that bad game, and also during the lockdown, when the contestant pool was local LA, and not very auspicious, at all.

    • Jason says:

      Ok, this game continued to be bad. I think I got 60% of TS. That DD that Laura completely drew a blank on hurt.

      Interestingly, there is another fellow of Indian descent on tomorrow’s game. Maybe that will be a challenge for Suresh?

  3. Howard says:

    IMO FJ was a cinch and they all should have known it.

    Another underwhelming win by Suresh. Most of his competitors have not been worthy.

    I was pounding my head in the first round when no one knew the Washington-connected horse; the “National Velvet” actress; (blank) be thy name; “Cat on a Hot Tin Roof” Daddy, and the Japanese crown’s flower. Knew the Papa Bell nickname, but you have to be a real baseball junkie to know him.

  4. aaaa says:

    $12,600 in Triple Stumpers and an FJ! right means a win from the fourth podium

  5. Ismael Gomez says:

    Hopefully, William Weyser would say darn those daily doubles to the challengers after struck out in the Double Jeopardy round.

    • VJ says:

      I’m just wondering if you have any original Ismael observations in your repertoire? When you come right down to it, this all-too-frequent remark isn’t even yours really.
