Certainly the first $100K question that was an instaget for me, instead of a WWOQ.

Amazing - this has to be one of the easiest stacks thus far. I got through out without any lifelines.

Q1: I have occasionally watched Big Bang, & have read about P&R. Think I can rule them out, but no clue on other 2. ATA.

Q4: Despite Mitt's having been governor here, & having certainly heard/read the story, no idea. JTQ. My mythical Plus1 would be from this board, as my relatives in NYC probably wouldn't be free for a trip to Stamford. No-one I've thought of for Plus1 is a pop-culture maven. Well, I can think of one I'd like to use who would be for current music, I think, but not network TV shows.


Q5: Kind of has to be EJ, as he's the only one listed who is famous for his glasses. But I thought he had bad vision, & that's why he had them!

Q6 is a giveaway.

Qs 7 & 8 are guesses for me, but I think safe guesses.


Q11: I guessed right, but would have used Plus1 to confirm on this.

[Appa23]

Lucky that he was not asked about French food.

Pommes de terre = potato (apple of earth)

Pommes (de terre) frites = french fries (fried potatoes)

Peter was the champion in my first Jeopardy game.
