George has a lame sense of humor, imo.
anyway, a very underwhelming performance by tonight's trio.

Queenie, I'm curious as to what part of your experience this was based on. We peons who can only know him through the screen see a genteel, refined, articulate gentleman. Was there some specific part of "behind-the-scenes" that he presented a different character?
My husband was on "Who Wants To Be a Millionaire?" many years ago, in the Meredith V-Era, and though his time with her was limited, he said that she's every bit as sweet off the screen as she was on screen. But....not all game hosts are created equally.

I was a little surprised none of them got the final right. It wasn't that hard.

did anyone catch Queenie's appearance on the early showing of Jeopardy yesterday? it was a rerun of the 2014 Tournament of Champions.
btw, congrats on paying off all your student loans, Queenie!

I would not consider the Man in the Iron Mask a hero

Looks like they watched the movie rather than read the book...
A colleague of mine used to teach both The Three Musketeers and The Vicomte of Bragelonne. He said that when they got to "The Man in the Iron Mask", some of the student's answers were hilarious.

Trebek called one the contestants a loser last night. Of course she won in a runaway...

Susan, the current champion, is my heroine. Both yesterday and today she led going into Final J, and wagered such that had the 2nd place contestant bet it all and answered correctly, they would have tied her.
Beautiful!
She is THE coolest contestant I've seen.
