Lynn wins!

Just watched S-R's Lynn Swanbom on Jeopardy and she won! Very impressive. So she'll be back Monday to try to add to her $10,400. Be sure to tune in and root for her.

P.S. They all missed the Final Jeopardy question (or is it answer?). But Lynn had the lowest  wager and won. Initially, I thought the same thing she did. But in the comfort of home and under no pressure, I was able to think it through and change my mind. Got it right!

Here is it (paraphrasing): These two men who played on series with Mary Tyler Moore combined for 16 Emmy Awards. One played a TV host. One played a TV producer.

Who are they?

 UPDATE: Lynn did even better Monday night (leading going into Final Jeopardy), but finished second. As I understand it, this means she wins what she won on the first night but not the second. Dang that Mount Rushmore! Anyway, she did great!
