Hi, kitap! Welcome to the game!

Normally you have to have a DQ from an answered IQ in the game to participate in the final death-defying round, BTW.

I actually didn’t realize that either. I thought the first name last name round was separate and in addition to the DQ round. Well, I should get it right next game then I think.

Time has expired.

I am Telma Hopkins, a member of the pop music group Tony Orlando and Dawn and a singer/performer/actor on a variety show of the same name and who had regular supporting roles in several sitcoms including Bosom Buddies, Gimme a Break! and Family Matters. She also starred in her own sitcom, Getting By, a show I had never heard of. Telma Hopkins - Wikipedia
