"Europa Point" was a dead giveaway. My boat made a port call there in 2006. I saw the Barbary apes, and one of my favorite items is a £20 Tercentenary Issue note issued by the territory.

Really good recovery by Karen in Double #Jeopardy.

About Ken's remark on the clue Mina Kimes read: this game was taped only ten days ago, the day after the conference championship games.

There were no apolgies to Bengals fans over that Montana clue, Ken…

OK, here's how this JIT works:
• 6 quarterfinals: winners advance, 3 wild cards for top scoring non-winners
• 3 semifinals, single elimination
• Final is first to 2 wins

Gold seeker — I not they didn't use "gold digger" on that first clue.

Unusual these days — a set of #Jeopardy introductions in which we didn't see any of the players' hands.

A deep dive into how the Games interact with #Jeopardy over the next two weeks. While I prefer @jeopardyofficial.bsky.social had delayed JIT, its decision not to do so is justifiable.

Ooh, I got a #Jeopardy ToC final that was a Triple Stumper on stage — wait a second, none of them even tried.
Congrats to @gppasco.bsky.social on becoming the 33rd Grand Champion!
And TJ: studying's not done. You'll be back, as will Scott.

Ten seasons ago, Alex Trebek called Alex Jacob's ToC the most dominant #Jeopardy tournament performance he'd seen.
I think that might have been surpassed over the last three nights.

I think "Scott the Unready" or "TJ the Unready" would be a bit too harsh on either of them.

Paolo again finds and converts the Double #Jeopardy Daily Doubles back-to-back. No, the show is not running the same episode over and over again, even though Groundhog Day was earlier this week.

"Mutual interests" tonight, it's not the #Jeopardy horny allegations. The charge is fully substantiated.

Arguably, "COVID-19" should've been dinged. The virus itself is "SARS-CoV-2."

"the biggest trivia stage there is"

If Scott reaches a #Jeopardy Masters, Yogesh Raut may have a word to say to him about that.

There needed to me a little more hand motion on the "August 6th and 7th tape days" — you didn't slip that past me, Paolo.

#Jeopardy not taking any chances by letting the players say their thank yous.

"Who painted 'Nighthawks'?" crossed my mind… but I couldn't recall Hopper's name, so I went to Andrew Wyeth instead.
It's very difficult to see how Paolo DOESN'T win this series.
