This is one of those ones that is a good reason why I make myself watch the episode before I post. I would have gotten this easy had I had time to think but I fucked up the board layout and math because I was rushing to get an answer out in 30 seconds.

Had no idea about the Tony, but I correctly guessed from the other half. I guess it helps that I was in eighth grade then.

I just watched it. There was a science category, a San Francisco cat (including the addresses of the Dead house and of the ballpark), and a cat for basketball movies/tv shows, including The White Shadow which I knew three cast members irl, so not really for me. Kinda right down the middle of the plate for me.Bensell wrote: Was it just me or did the double Jeopardy questions seem much harder than normal? Or maybe it just bad categories for me

Was it celebrity or teen week last week? Got all 5, dragging myself up to a respectable score. I just saw Lost is Space for the first time ever last week. It was on MeTV. I didn't watch more than 2 minutes. It was the only old live action TV show set in the future that I could think of.Shirley wrote:howard 14-6
