Another great game indeed, but David unfortunately wasn’t at his best tonight. As for FJ, one of us went for Mae West, but I settled for Greta Garbo.
I said (and said again and again) Clara Bow, the “It” girl.
Only the first half of the first round was cut off for me. It cut introducing Maddie, and returned with Maddie giving her diving story.
It looked like David gave half answers, making him his own worst enemy.
Tonight’s game was partly preempted in most U.S. markets due to coverage of Hurricane Helene flooding in Florida.
Imo, those were all good guesses on the players’ part. The word Stars in the category didn’t necessarily point to an actress, yet Ken said “the actress here who spent 8 days in jail…was Mae West.
I didn’t know Mae West wrote plays or that she also wrote screenplays.
P.S. West got 2 days off of her 10-day sentence for good behavior.
We were so close to having a 4 day champion in David because he made a small bet to stay above Alex if he covers Maddie and that would have worked out in David’s advantage but Maddie went for a small small wager to keep David locked out and she won in a tough final. Maybe next time we’ll try to find another TOC qualifier.
