    I thought Tim’s bets were way too low on all of his Daily Double wagers. He found all three of them and bet about $6,000 in total. That seems very conservative/shy to me. Although he clearly did enough to win the game.

    I never heard of that pudding until now, but it was typically a porridge made of corn meal and milk.

    VJ. can you believe Gigi came up today in French Literature?

    • VJ says:

      Lol Bunny, that was crazy, wasn’t it? It was such a close call, I had to check to make sure I was really safe!

      • rhonda says:

        It sure was, VJ. They even showed a picture with the clue lol. It couldn’t have been a closer call!

        • VJ says:

          On top of that, my brother and I were watching “No Way to Treat a Lady” (Steiger, Segal, Remick) after the show and Steiger did a Maurice Chevalier impression! lol

        • rhonda says:

          Did he sing “I Remember It Well? lol

  4. Lou says:

    Tim played an awesome game today especially Jen. Unfortunately Jaclyn couldn’t keep up. Congrats to both Tim and Jen getting final right. I think Tim could build up on his win if he continues. He could get a big payday hopefully. Hasty pudding sounds delicious and I wouldn’t mind using it on ice cream or cake later.

  5. Darius Scott says:

    Congrats to Tim Moon for his 1-day $28,200 win!

  6. Darius Doom Scott! says:

    Jen Jazwinski doesn’t have a “T” in her name.
