Congratulations nam nguyen on becoming the new jeopardy champion well done

Only name I could think of was Harper Lee, and I didn't think that was right

@hsupower 9 днів тому

That was my guess, too.

@danielwilcox419 8 днів тому

The wording "a novel" pushed my mind towards Harper Lee too and I ignored the rest of the clue 😂

@judithmoore7892 10 днів тому

Wow, I vaguely remember Moms Mabley being on talk shows when I was a little kid. I never knew she did serious writing.

This was like a 1992 Final! Jeopardy! Question!

@mournblade1066 10 днів тому

I guessed Margaret Mitchell. I never heard of the person the question referenced.

Strong category for me, and I got it right

OMG, I guessed Zora Neale Hurston for fun, and I was right! Also, my phone keeps trying to auto correct "Hurston" to "hummus". Go figure.

@siegel019 10 днів тому

Can't believe I actually got it. Total guess. Just the first female Harlem Renaissance author that popped into my head. And I wasn't even sure Harlem Renaissance was the right call either.

@Driven2Beers 10 днів тому

Was gonna go with Morrison or Angelou, But they were mostly poets. And yes, I'm old enough to remember Moms Mabley along with comedian Pigmeat Markham. If I remember, they both appeared on Laugh in. Pioneers in the black stand up comedy genre.

@brianmcdonald6519 10 днів тому

I'm very familiar with Moms Mabley, but can't say I've ever heard of the other one you mentioned!!

@kentekuzan 10 днів тому

Morrison was much more of a novelist, but both were born far too late to fit here

@judithmoore7892 10 днів тому

I remember Moms Mabley, but not Pigmeat Markham. What a name!

@PrimarchX 5 годин тому

I've read the book but didn't connect her to the clue.

@scottleung9587 10 днів тому

My guess was also Hansberry.

@uyeda 10 днів тому

Tricky.

@paulsummers2640 8 днів тому

Only Moms Mabley would have known this.

I got this Final Jeopardy! clue right.

@user-id7th5qs8o 10 днів тому

Ha ha….the only person I could think of was Margaret Mitchell.

Elly would’ve made it to Final Jeopardy when she had the chance

@mr.timetraveler8784 10 днів тому

I took a shot in the dark and guessed Zora Neale Hurston! I read her in an American Literature course.

@scottleung9587 10 днів тому

Good 4 u!

@manodakshin6020 10 днів тому

So unfortunate Elly was unable to participate in Final Jeopardy as a result of forgetting to wear her glasses due to stress. There were lots of moments where Marko and Nam looked dominating.

This was an easy question. But at the same time, I get why people would get stumped.

@NicoletteJenkins-ul4dr 10 днів тому

third lol

@Lanearndt 10 днів тому

Just once I wish 20th C Authors could indicate the question might be slightly more contemporary!! How about someone after 1980!!

Zora Neale Hurston, nam Nguyen is a jeopardy champion. Congratulations 🎉

Why do I feel like everyone thought it was pointless to have the podiums be together? Wait a minute what am I saying? Of course there’s a point, I hope they bring the podiums back to normal since season 36 next season. Also when will Jeanne Trebek be host too?

@BlueManIan 10 днів тому

Why would Jeanne be host?

@MorganNye 10 днів тому

@@BlueManIan So that way you can have someone who is the wife of Alex be host! Husband, and then wife.

@BlueCrystalTear 10 днів тому

The podiums went back to normal a few years ago. It looks so much better this way! Also, get some help.

@MorganNye 10 днів тому

@@BlueCrystalTear Why did basically nobody enjoy the players being together when the HD kicked in 2006? Did you expect them to be 6 ft apart since then? Also I don’t need help, I’m perfectly fine but just wanna know the truth of what’s taking so long, also the podiums did not go back to normal yet in nearly 4 years since season 36! They are still 6 ft apart! Do you like the social distancing? You suck if you do, hello?

@BlueCrystalTear 10 днів тому

@@MorganNye I repeat: The podiums ARE back to normal. And you DO need help with this unhealthy OCD. I don't care about that "social distancing" nonsense - it just looks better when the contestants each get their own podium.
