Damn.
Most people wouldn’t bite the hand that fed them. James bites it completely off, eats it, and shits it all over them.

Man, I knew Wheel of Fortune was going to have to go with the most vanilla guy they could find, but I didn’t think they’d hit THAT big of a jackpot.
Damn I was certain this was Brian Dunkleman’s chance to finally make his long-awaited comeback

For some reason I decided to check out the actual article, which is dumb fluff, but the comments are about as AIDSy as I’d expect from the NY Post. “Ms. Bialik is wonderful, can’t stand the other guy.” “I don’t watch at all anymore, there are too many ‘woke’ questions.” “I still just watch to see how many answers I get right, especially that question at the end, whatever they call it.”

Yes because to win Jeopardy you add up the number of questions you get correctly and whoever got the most right wins!

There was this one absolutely wild Jeopardy interview that I think about all the time and have tried to google to see if I could fine this somewhere but basically it was a man who was born in Africa, and it was like “Says here you owe your mom big time?” “Oh yes when I was a child I was actually kidnap by warlords to be a child soldier, and my mom single handedly tracked me down and helped me escape captivity before we were able to flee to the United States” and it’s like well shit don’t think anyone can actually top that one, felt bad for whoever had to follow him up with a story about how they knitted a giant quilt of the 50 states.

That was a nightmare scenario and perfect example of why almost no one bets correctly. If there were a hundred possible questions for that category, I wonder how many he misses. Five?
The anecdote section has always been interesting to me, especially for long term champs. I remember Jennings saying something like “I had maybe 5 good stories to tell. Who on earth has 73 interesting anecdotes they can tell about themselves?”
Then Sam Buttrey came along. It seems his anecdote game is endless

That’s one benefit of being old. More time to accumulate them.

So a bunch of out of date trivia from the 90s will make its way onto the show.
Probably would be better to get AI to write the answers.
I need to try out for the show right now.

My wife had an interesting rules question. In most cases, when you give a proper name, you can just give a last name, however sometimes a first name will be required for a clue. Normally, if you give a wrong first name, you get it wrong even if a last name only would have gotten a correct.
So my question, if the answer to someone is 3 names. Lets say Bryce Dallas Howard, and I answer Bryce Howard and Ken asks for more, could I revert to just saying Howard and be correct?
Gonna need a viable hypothetical here. Don’t think your example works unless the category is three name celebrities.
