Jeopardy! Thread (No spoilers until after the show EST)

Actually looking into it more. Highest winnings (regular season play) are obviously Ken and James by a massive amount. But crazy enough 3-10 all failed to win the TOC

Well the DDs and FJ are the great equalizer.

I think it would be awesome if there were Jeopardy without any of that. Just two jeopardy rounds and highest score wins. But I might be the only one that thinks that.

I guess the silver lining is that with the current system we get plenty of outstanding unintentional comedy with these ridiculous wagers.

I think with covid this was a weird season. Lots of games with just weaker players but definitely a few with 3 strong competitors. You also had a game with 2 returning Champs who were both strong.

I actually watched a quite a bit of that season, and IIRC, she was good but not great. Just never ran into any good competition.

My favorite part of that season is the TOC which was supposed to be the Arthur vs Julia showdown, and, of course, the other guy won (assuming I’m remembering it correctly).

Yep, Ben Ingram

Also jeopardy hall of fame

And people will still bet different when they’re deep(er) in the WSOP than your weekly $100 tournament. Few people can be on the biggest stage and play perfect in anything.

If I ever got on, there is a good chance my betting would look like shit, because there are some of these categories, where I know I’m <10% to get the answer, so I’d just min bet and look like and idiot.

WTF? It’s 2021 and I tell my DVR to record jeopardy. Is technology not advanced enough for the DVR to adjust if it gets postponed?

What happened on the west coast? My DVR recorded wheel instead of Jeopardy last night.

That’s called quiz bowl or trivia night. The whole name and concept of what differentiates the game is the wagering aspect.

There should be no prize money at all in the Tournament of Champions. It should be a true cometishian, a sport.

How about winner lives. Losers die. That will be exciting TV.

Mayim is a tad on the over excited over enunciating side but overall much better than I feared.

Mayim giggles too much. So do the 2 female contestants on tonight’s (Friday) episode.

Edit: Thursdays episode. I have a new job with every other Friday off and this week is one of those Fridays. Oops

It’s Thursday

What is Thursday

The winner was what I expect the real women that inspired sex and the city were like.

Middle podium wasn’t good at the game.

I can see that vibe in her for sure.

Did you mean that? (Thinking of more than one SATC episode).

I’ve never watched all episode, but I thought the jeopardy lady had a super sexy vibe.
