Final Jeopardy was played by only 2 contestants in 2 games this week. No one got the one about Churchill and only one player got the “silver tide” clue. Thursday’s clue proved the hardest as it confused all 3 contestants. Each clue on Monday and Friday garnered 2 correct responses. Of those two, Monday’s clue was the hardest for me.

Alison Betts returned on Monday to try to build on her 2-day total of $61,700. On Wednesday, she became a 5x winner with over $100K. She’s a shoo-in for the next Tournament of Champions now. Marko Saric sent Alison home on Thursday. He only won $3,799 that day but made up for it with a bigger win on Friday. Marko is now a 2-day champ with total winnings of $26,600.

Here is the TV MUSIC category from Wednesday’s game.
