Always loved it. The new age of megaplayers like Ken Jennings, Austin Rogers and James Holzhauer makes it all the better.Minor waffles for Teacher's Tournament and especially Teen Tournament, which usually sit unwatched on the DVR. Awkward interviews are easy FFed over.Bonus points for Trebek's self-consciously perfect French pronunciation.

I looked her up and she hits all my Earnest Americana buttons which is good because she tanked as a player.As far as I'm concerned, this is now the dedicated Jeopardy thread, since we've already had more responses than the other two.

One of those shows where you try to give the answer (question) before the contestants do. A classic. There was a Swedish version running when I was growing up, though it got cancelled ages ago. I used to think it was a made up word.

You say Jeopardy, I think Jose Chung's 'From Outer Space.'

Here's a super-dorky little Jeopardy min-game the missus and I play: when the Final Jeopardy category is announced just before the commercial break we try to guess what the answer (or question, I guess) is going to be based on only that information. For example, let's say the category is 20th Century Poets. Based on that, I might guess T.S. Eliot and my girlfriend might guess Sylva Plath. (The way we do it is we silently each think of what our guess is and then share when we're both ready so as not to possibly influence each other's answers by shouting stuff out.) One guess only and once you've said it out loud you can't change your answer. I probably get it right about once-twice a month, although I once got four over the course of two weeks. Yes, I know, I already said this was super-dorky.

^ ive done this. It's a reasonable and fun approach.It's a numbers game on a game show's reach . There's a lot to consider , socially , in a few moments.

Category was North American Cities and both my partner and I picked Montreal as we had been discussing the city not five minutes earlier. (Also, the category suggests that the city won't be in the U.S. and Jeopardy leans more toward Canada than Mexico.)The clue was In 2017 this city celebrated its 375th birthday & the 50th anniv. of an event that made it an international tourist destination.
