Did we get served different jeopardy!s today? It wasnāt no shores of tripoli
Nah, he was describing an old episode.
I didnāt see the episode but I did know the answer.
Thatās because I sung it as a 10 year old as a part of school chorus.
I remembered it as the Marine Corps Hymn. Not sure if they would have spotted me that.
looks like theyāre changing up the format this year
21 total? 19 champs plus two losers?
overall, this is a sick roster, but itās reminding me that this has also been one of the most tilting seasons ever
Maybe the strongest season of jeopardy ever
even in this fucking murdererās row they managed to squeeze her in (this post was about maureen oāneil)
Thatās too many people.
Guessing the last 18 play down to 6 over 6 games. Then these 6 would join the top 3 in a final week of play like they do in second week of a standard ToC.
But who knows.
Yep 18 play down to 6 and Matt Amy and Mattea have a bye to the semis. Also they are changing the finals to the GOAT tournament format where first to win 3 games win
Yeah I just think 18 is too much TV time for bottom feeders playing against each other. Give me more of the real champs slaying fools. Iād probably do something like:
(1) Rank the top P players who each play G games
(2) Set up a series of matches such that each lineup is unique
(3) Top 3 money winners advance to finals
Example: P = 12 players who get G = 2 games each
Matt would be the #1, Mattea the #2, Amy the #3ā¦
The goats appear in 75% of the matches this way. Donāt really care about MAUREEN, Tyler, and Christine battles to see who gets to be the sacrificial lamb. Show me a lamb slaughter every night (or maybe itās a David slaying Goliath surprise).
It feels like Matt, Mattea, and Amy all had their own season. Itās wild that all three of those runs were in the same season.
THE HOST
Jfc. Iām so sick of the coverage and tonightās FJ is British Royal Family.
And of course, the lady at the middle podium does a great job to get the lead and the boofs it with a nonsensical small wager.
Edit- someone on the J board who was at the taping says she meant to wager 14801 which is the lockout wager. She did the math correctly and accidentally left off the ā4ā. She realized her mistake after she locked in her wager and was so upset they had to fix her makeup. Ouch.
sucks but iām kinda glad because luigi rocks
omg brutal
She confirmed this on Reddit:

She was visibly upset. Didnāt piece together it was because she wrote it wrong and not just a bonehead underbet. Would be wild if Luigi went on a huge tear now, which Iām definitely rooting for because heās great.
For people who arenāt going to trawl the reddit thread, here is her wager sheet,
and thereās some interesting behind the scenes info in this post that I wasnāt aware of:
