Wednesday march 22,23 game

Long i's short i's, bric-a-brac, that was a terrible wager. In retrospect I bet she regrets it. She had the game in hand but Melissa survives another day, which pleases me. Even when she was far behind, she kept her cool demeanor and forged on.

Here in East Texas as well. Didn't think much about it until your post.

Am I the only one that said Gopher Prairie on [reading] that DD [from the j-archive.] Yes, it's a more familiar name to me than Eden Prairie... For the record--and I'm not saying either of you said this--but Gopher Prairie is not a real place. It's the town referenced in "Main Street" by ...

I feel I must add my tardy congratulations to Morbeedo for excellent play.You appeared relaxed and comfortable playing against a seasoned player who IMO should be in a special category.

This is going to sound really dumb, but I never realized until today that Isabel Allende the author and Isabel Allende the political scion of Salvador Allende were different people. (Turns out, they are related and close in age.) Accordingly I did not realize that the author was a U.S. person, and ...

Too bad Pete forgot to study FJ Wagering 101. He could be back tomorrow as a 2X returning champ. He wouldn't be in this game if not for his "wagering strategy". He made a strategically viable wager in game 1. He made close to the worst wager possible in game 2. And it cost him. If I remem...

Re FJ wagering, how can Matea's wager be considered good? She bets a dollar, if she misses and the second place contestant doubles and gets it right, she loses! I say bet nothing. And she has a 50/50 that she'll lose the tiebreak, so what's your point? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b5-iJUuPWis So...

Re: Jeopardy! National College Championship

Wow, 101 posts so far! I don't like Celebrity Wheel and I don't care for this new format. What was wrong with the former? Too confusing hence all this discussion. A point was put forth re too much Jeopardy in one night, well taken. Another comment related to interviews and not wanting to listen to t...

Here's my thoughts FWIW; I would like to see a return to the five win format where the champion goes into a pool to play similar players with comparable experience and buzzer speed. I like Matt but I'd rather see three fresh faces more often. Although the game is the same, the "game" is ov...

I was surprised and pleased to see Tom Russell make Jeopardy. I agree with your assessment. One of my favorites is Gallo del Cielo performed before a live audience.

Re: Friday, June 18, 2021 Game Recap and Discussion (SPOILERS)

Yeah I'm baffled by this continued insistence that the hosts have to tell the players (DURING THE GAME) how the game works. You watch the show, you take the online test, you audition for the show, you fly to California, you make your way to the studio, you're given a rundown of the rules on the day...

Perhaps because of the juxtaposition of episodes, but Mayim reminded me of a female Buzzy: witty, energetic and in control of the facts. I’m still kicking myself for missing FJ. I went through all the cable channels I could think of looking for one with an Italian word for a name. The best I could ...

Re: How Did Aaron Rodgers Do as Host?

I'm with the 8.5 bunch, I liked Aaron. To me he cane across as genuine and unpretentious and I liked his smile. I also liked Mike Richards but he has an advantage in a comparison of the two being as he has hosted game shows before and is totally familiar with the Jeopardy set up. As far as explainin...
