Answer: HEAD OF THE CLASS
(Very nice. A bit of irony with the answer. Made me remember a television show I hadn’t thought about in probably 25 years, or more, “Head of the Class”. It starred one of my favorite television actors of the ’80s, Howard Hesseman, who had previously been on “WKRP in Cincinnati”, as “Dr.” Johnny Fever! I was just a young man back then. Very good times for me.
All familiar clue words today, with two new jumbles. We’ve seen “liduf” and “starhh” before. I thought that “cgoek” was a very challenging jumble! Took me a few seconds before I saw “gecko”. The answer letter layout was just okay today. I was able to see CLASS, and of course OF stood right out. Fun cartoon though. It looks like Jeff put Kobe into the Jumble. Intentional? Hmm! Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR

I had to back into GECKO and SHAKEN. Thank goodness I figured out the Jumble answer and knew what letters I needed, and that the E was needed in both the jumbled words I had to back into. Our Jumble Guyz, IMHO, have been easing us into more puzzling jumbles! And still no new clue words???
I kinda remember “Head of the Class.” I tried to find what played opposite in the Head of the Class time slot, but could not find that info.

The first four years it was on Wednesdays, at either 8:30, then 9:00, and back to 8:30. Then they moved to Tuesdays at 8:30, all on ABC. I was still pretty big on sitcoms back then, so I don’t know what it might have been opposite. The only dramas I remember watching from those years was “LA Law” and “Hill Street Blues”. Too early to be opposite “St. Elsewhere”, which was Tuesdays, and then Wednesdays at 10:00, which I didn’t watch, for some reason. Maybe one of the other readers remember, LindaLee.
