This was the most shameful Final Jeopardy I can remember in a long time. Good grief. :cripes:

The most notable thing about Pierce is how completely non-notable he was.

Also that he was actually a really bad President, supported the Confederacy after leaving office, and is a direct ancestor of George W Bush.

I got it because I figured Buchanan had been secretary of state (he was practically everything else, after all), and knew he was a bachelor, so just counted forward from there.

To be fair, I don't think I've ever seen anyone use "LD/Line Death" online. Or RDV for that matter.

I've never seen RDV either, but LD was a thing like 5-7 years ago. I don't think I've seen it since then, though.

Jeff's biggest problem is that he just needs to slow down. He'd be way easier to understand if he wasn't trying to recite the whole Constitution in the time it takes a normal person to take a drink.

I said Oklahoma first, then Rodeo, but I'm not sure if Rodeo would strictly be considered a musical or not since I'm not really big on theatre to start with.

They answered four questions in a category about the five senses. Each answer was actually one of the five senses. That last question might as well have been "First person to ring in gets free money."

I thought that as well but a quick Google shows some studies linking autism with diabetes. There's probably a few other answers you could find that would work as well.

All that I could find was ones suggesting a possible link, nothing confirmed.

Matt looks like he learned to smile after watching videos of other people smile, but doesn't know that you have to move more than just your mouth muscles to make it convincing. Wasn't there a fairly recent goon who was basically the same way? This guy reminds me of him.

How were you supposed to figure out that final apart from guessing and going with the 1/7 chance?

I got it just fine. Friday was named for the Germanic goddess Frigga (or Norse Freyja, depending who you ask), and is the only day of the week named for a goddess, so I figured that might hold true for the Greek name for it too.

Been a while since I've seen a question on Jeopardy worded so badly that it becomes factually incorrect: Haumea is twice as wide as it is tall, since those determinations are made relative to a body's axis of spin.
