Here’s the Pop Culture Jeopardy Final Jeopardy (in the category 2010s Movie Reviews) for Wednesday, December 18, 2024 (Season 1, Game 7):
On this film: “When a movie character’s name is synonymous with ‘fuse’, the audience will be wondering when to expect his meltdown”
(correct response beneath the contestants)
Today’s Jeopardy! contestants:
On The Bubble, Jacoby, Paul, and Nick
Lower Shoulder, Renee, Witney, and Angie
Space Cowboys, Sagar, Seema, and Sarang
Andy’s Pregame Thoughts:
Our opening game of Week 3 of Pop Culture Jeopardy sees the Space Cowboys, Lower Shoulder, and On The Bubble battle in the opening round; all three teams would love a spot in the quarter-finals. In case you didn’t notice, over the past week, all 81 teams were unveiled over at popculturejeopardy.com; there are some teams that I am very much looking forward to watching—including a pair of teams later in the competition with players who honed their skills at a bar named Squirrel Tooth Alice’s in Guelph back in the day!
One other thing I’m finding amusing is that some episodes of this series are rated 13+ by Prime Video, while others are 7+. (This one is 13+.)

Game Recap & Tonight’s Game Stats:
Here’s the recap for Season 1, Episode 7:
Jeopardy! Round:
(Categories: In-Laws; You, Robot; Nicknames & Aliases; Movies Make The Fashion; Bass; TV “M-A”)
After an incorrect response on the opening clue, Lower Shoulder went on a roll, picking up nine correct in the opening 15 clues to have a big lead at the round break. The scores after 15 clues were Lower Shoulder 5,200, On The Bubble 1,000 Space Cowboys 800.
Statistics at the first break (15 clues):
Lower Shoulder 9 correct 1 incorrect
On The Bubble 3 correct 0 incorrect
Space Cowboys 2 correct 0 incorrect
Today’s interviews:
On The Bubble met in an online movie trivia league.
Lower Shoulder met when Renee vomited on Witney’s show at a viewing of the Rocky Horror Picture Show.
Space Cowboys is a team where Sagar and Seema are married and Sagar and Sarang are siblings.
On The Bubble did not have the best of segments; firstly, I think Colin might have glossed over that Paul wanted to propose. Then, they were timed out on the Daily Double. Finally, the Triple Play saw them get in first, but then the Space Cowboys picked up the remaining two responses on the rebound. Lower Shoulder still led after 30, though, after more strong play.
Statistics after the Jeopardy round:
Lower Shoulder 16 correct 1 incorrect
Space Cowboys 5 correct 2 incorrect
On The Bubble 9 correct 2 incorrect
Scores after the Jeopardy! Round:
Lower Shoulder 11,400
Space Cowboys 1,800
On The Bubble 1,600
Double Jeopardy! Round:
(Categories: Anniversaries; Mary Blank Blank; Pitchfork Perfect 10 Albums; Notable Noshes; Memorable TV Moments; “Say” You, “Say” Me)
On The Bubble rebounded well from a phrasing misstep to successfully convert a True Daily Double. Lower Shoulder got DD3 incorrect for 3,000, making things pretty close going into Final. Meanwhile, the Space Cowboys swept the Triple Play to make sure they were around for Final.
Statistics after Double Jeopardy:
Lower Shoulder 25 correct 3 incorrect
On The Bubble 22 correct 4 incorrect
Space Cowboys 9 correct 4 incorrect
Scores going into Final:
Lower Shoulder 18,800
On The Bubble 13,600
Space Cowboys 1,400
On The Bubble was the only team correct on this Final Jeopardy clue; they’re advancing!
Tonight’s results:
Space Cowboys 1,400 – 618 = 782 (What is Suici)
On The Bubble 13,600 + 13,600 = 27,200 (What is John Wick?) (Quarter-Finalist)
Lower Shoulder 18,800 – 8,401 = 10,399 (What is Crank?)
