SYMBOLS: In math, it’s a rotated V; in society, it’s a feeling of some marginalized or underrepresented people show

This week started off with a final that everyone got. The very next day, the entire panel was stumped with a medieval place. On Wednesday, two players got FJ! and there was only one correct response in final on Thursday and on Friday. Monday’s Africa clue was obviously the easiest. Determining the hardest is not that easy. Many people thought more than one response was possible for the clues on Tuesday and Friday. We don’t know if they would have accepted just the town for Tuesday’s clue and it’s a moot point. No one came up with that. On Friday, some viewers felt that “inequality” should have been accepted. Although one person had that response, it would not have changed the results. In any case, I found those two clues easy. The hardest clue for me was the Movie Theme clue!

Jeopardy! champs, week of March 20, 2023

Kelly Barry was Monday’s returning champ. Her hopes of winning a second game were dashed when Melissa Klapper won. Melissa had two more victories but she went home with $59,100 after Alec Chao ran away with Thursday’s game. Tamara Ghattas was Friday’s winner and she will return on Monday. Melissa had the week’s top payday– the only one over $20K.

Here is the category “CATS: THE NON-MUSICAL” from Friday’s game.
