Believe it or not, I actually recorded this ep when it first aired. XD That "HMS Budweiser" moment makes me laugh.

U.S. PRESIDENTS

He was the first Democrat to die in office

By this season of Jeopardy, I had been watching every episode either live, or by VCR for at least five years. I can't recall noticing how sensitive the player's mics were. Picking up nervous breathing from both Tom and Leslie through the whole episode. Maybe there was a newbie sound man at the cont...

This is sad. He was a broadcasting legend whose career spanned many decades. He is what made Millionaire must-watch TV. He will be missed. Rest well, Reege. X(

Jeopardy!s social networking sites says what happened on show #2 would require a tie-breaker clue today. This brings me to this: What do you award the person who wins the tie-breaker clue on a triple-zero game? $5000? $2000? $1000?

Hi, all. We've seen the first two eps of the Trebek run now, and looking at it and the whole first season, I think about why there were so many unrevealed clues (and sometimes, even unrevealed CATEGORIES!) in many season 1 eps. Could it have been because the ring-in rules were more loosey-goosey the...

Marilyn’s last name intrigued me so I googled her to see if there was a connection to Barry. I didn’t find one but I did see an obituary for her from last month. https://www.bethisraelchapel.com/m/obituaries/Marilyn-Goldwater/Memories Sorry to see that. *********** I added 4/4/91: http://www.j-arch...

^ I remember seeing video of that in 2004 on a website (before YouTube). XD

Hey, guys. I'd love to see either a video game or post from Jeopardy's social networking sites that explore the show's past seasons, whether it be through moments or clues. What should it be called? I have three ideas: 1) JEOPARDY! Rewind 2) Throwback JEOPARDY! 3) Retro JEOPARDY! Any other ideas, Re...

If the scandals had never happened, or never been exposed, I wonder how differently things would be handled today. Two things in television that we now take for granted that are effectively the result of the quiz show scandals: 1. The networks sell advertising within programs to multiple sponsors, ...
