    I don’t get it; we had a slew of tough FJs this week, and now this no brainer.

  2. Collin says:

    The returning champ got 2 daily doubles wrong and the correct response in the Final (Elanor spelled the same last word as David). He winds up in 3rd place and goes home for only $3,000. Elanor won almost $21,000 in the game and today’s new returning champion to finish the week.

  3. Lou says:

    Happy to see a triple solve today. Congrats to all three players.

  4. Ismael Gomez says:

    I am sure that William Weyser would say darn those daily doubles to David.

  5. Jacob Ska says:

    William Weyser, Thank you. Without your wish yesterday I doubt we would have finally gotten a triple solve. The drought has come to an end on day 60. 😄

    Today’s game was the first since April 8 with all 3 players getting Final Jeopardy! correct, ending a 59-game streak. We finally have our first triple solve. We had three triple stumpers this week but thank goodness the end of the week saved us from another small payday.
