Here’s today’s Final Jeopardy (in the category Art History) for Monday, July 10, 2023 (Season 39, Game 216):
At the 1865 Paris art salon, the elder of these 2 men said if the younger were successful, it would be “because his name sounds like mine”
(correct response beneath the contestants)
Today’s Jeopardy! contestants:
James Tyler, a senior editor from Blandon, Pennsylvania
Dileri Johnston, a pottery teacher from Maplewood, New Jersey
Alex Gordon, a medical student from Somers, New York (2-day total: $41,500)
Andy’s Pregame Thoughts:
Welcome to a new week of Jeopardy! episodes. We’ve got an East Coast battle today. Today’s challengers are New Jersey’s Dileri Johnston and Pennsylvania’s James Tyler.
It’s clear that Jeopardy!‘s writers are becoming increasingly online (Which, I would say, is not a bad thing. As I have written in these spaces before, it’s important for them to be aware of online culture). I very nearly spit out my coffee this morning when I saw the category STITCH INCOMING in J!6. For the uninitiated, it’s a TikTok term to alert your followers that you’ve attached, or “stitched” someone else’s video, to the front of yours, usually one with an opinion diametrically opposed to yours, so that you can post your own rebuttal to it.

Correct response: Who are (Édouard) Manet and (Claude) Monet?
More information about Final Jeopardy:
(The following write-up is original content and is copyright 2023 The Jeopardy! Fan. It may not be copied without linked attribution back to this page.)
This Final Jeopardy results from a story that Claude Monet recounted decades later in an 1924 interview with art critic Marc Elder, reprinted in the French-language Paris newspaper La Parisien in 2015. According to Monet:
At the Salon of 1865, I exhibited two seascapes which were successful. I was in the theaters with Frédéric Bazille when he met a family of his acquaintance. He introduced me. We chatted. Suddenly a gentleman in a top hat arrives, lively, agitated, who throws himself across our group, shakes hands and exclaims: “It’s disgusting, I’ve only been complimented on two paintings. which are not mine! They are by a man named Monet. If this boy is successful, it’s because his name sounds like mine! And running off he went. It was Edouard Manet. A moment later he was informed that he had spoken in front of me. He was upset. I was no less.
I’m actually quite a fan of this Final Jeopardy—both names are short, it’s easy to “figure it out”, and you don’t have to worry about “which one”, because you have to name them both. And, I have to say, I definitely found the research part of today’s Final amusing—in order to find the source, I had to translate the quote into French and then search for the French quote.

Andy’s Thoughts:
Viewers are reminded that the show is always in search of the thing that follows “these” or “this” in the clue. The show made it unequivocally clear that it wanted 2 people. Any possible confusion is not on the show’s writers—it is on the viewers or contestants—the show is just following the same style that it has followed for the past 40 years.
- Especially with Alex getting a guaranteed return in Champions’ Wildcard, Alex trying to cement the game on the Daily Double is absolutely the best move. Even though it didn’t work out for him in this game, that doesn’t stop it from being the best move. In fact, the issue from Alex’s perspective is that it happens to be a type of surgery that a layman is more likely to be aware of (namely, Tommy John surgery from the world of sports) than a medical professional would be.
- I hope the players waiting to play noticed James’ non-cover bet.
Today’s box score: July 10, 2023 Box Score.
Final Jeopardy! wagering suggestions:
(Scores: James $14,200 Dileri $10,400 Alex $3,000)
Alex: You can’t win unless both James and Dileri overbet. I would go all-in, just in case they do—that gives you the best chance to win. (Actual bet: $2,500)
Dileri: Limit your bet to $2,799 to win a Double Stumper with James. (Actual bet: $10,000)
James: Standard cover bet over Dileri is $6,601. (Actual bet: $6,000)
