Trying to get back into watching this regularly. Only caught the final Jeopardy today. I did not know it.

I guessed Baudelaire, who died like 25 years earlier. Whoops.

All I can think to guess is Victor Hugo, but I'm not really sure that year aligns.

He died in 1885. Closer than my guess!

Ahh. After I posted Hugo I did begin to think it didn't have to be someone born in France since it didn't say that. I still wouldn't have got it correct though.

Is she back?

I got the final right tonight along with Amy. The other two schmucks didn't even have responses compatible with the category.

Her pause after someone answers annoys me so much.

I’ve only recently got back into the show after more than a few years so I haven’t seen other hosts, but I think Jennings does pretty well.

In my area at least they're showing the Professors Tournament before the new episode.

I missed that final jeopardy :/. I did get the British Author one though, whichever day that was.
