Trebek must have done something very nice (or perhaps threatening) for the writers to gift him with an entire category on Robbie Burns. Alex's dream Jeopardy board includes "Robert Burns," "French Authors," "Genres," and "Pooh Corner Impressions."

Wouldn't say "twist" so much as "confirmation of time travel that was hinted at in the pilot."
Tonight in Good talk, Andrew:
Something odd over the end credits: they never went to a wide shot showing all the contestants and Trebek. It was mainly closeups. There was a shot of Stephanie and Andrew that cut Christina out of the picture.
Who is Traitor McQuisling?
You had me at "Final Season."
We're going to make it obvious who the masked villain actually is. But we'll make it so obvious that our fans will assume that we're doing it as a fake out. And just when they think it's a fake out, we'll make it him again! Because only a great fool would assume that a poorly-foreshadowed reveal is actually a red…
ALEC (V.O.): What the heck? Why would Sharath only bet $901? He's giving me the game! What a fool! This is amazing! The crowd is going to go wild! They'll be chanting my name! I'll be a Jeopardy champ—
[actually does some mental math]

Four episodes into my binge and I had to jump off this frustrating, whiny ride. The characters would be mitigated somewhat by the mystery…but two hours in and there were precious few clues or hints. Some have said that the mystery really starts in episode six, but I can't stomach another episode. Particularly one…
I like to imagine that Will's character is still out there, pole vaulting away from a perjury rap for a bad Yelp review.
Sadly Fox just canceled this show 35 minutes ago.
But you leave the fox behind and take the penguin back to Argentina. Then you return with the penguin and the sack of grain, leaving behind the penguin and taking back the fox.
She's socially awkward and wearing a parka. She's antarctic-dorkable! This fall on Fox!
For the alliteration category, I went with "Friendly Fatty" rather than "Gentle Giant."
"The final category is: Nouns."
A deserved double "Good for you" followed by a meandering story about Chinese students in the model UN. God help us when Trebek allows the kids to talk about whatever they want tomorrow.
The pilot was very much in that Girls territory of "characters with a frustrating lack of self-awareness." While this portrayal is a heightened version of actual twentysomethings, at times it was flat out hard to watch (particularly Meredith Hagner's character). I'll check out the next few episodes to follow the…
Hasn't been the greatest of years for CBB (with the exception of Tim Baltz I'm not a big fan of the Bajillion Dollar cast).
Willy screeching "I Would Die 4 U" is simultaneously hideous and goddam hilarious.
Stannis should have been the one to set fire to the portrait.
