Jeopardy!

[OssMan]

Yo I have been watching Jeopardy daily, hooked on it

current champion Dan is a legislative aid from Boston Massachusets (His 6 day cash winnings total $126,229) best champion we've had in a while and its good to have him as champ after Cora turned heel and reigned forever

Yo there was this total jobber on last show, I can't even explain. She finisished with -$6600, come on. Got like 2 questions right. The Video Daily Double in the Jeopardy round category Geometry showed a picture of an isosceles triangle and asked what kind of triangle it was and she said equilateral. How did she even get on the show? She even gave multiple questions without saying "what is" at the beginning :roll: plus she no-sold everything.

[Nervous Ferret]

Love Jeopardy

[Fignuts]

snl celebrity jeopardy >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> jeopardy

[Crazy Nick]

My Grandma loves this show, I think its pretty cool too. It makes me look like a dumbass, I rarely know the answers to anything.

[Nervous Ferret]

WHUT the heck, I guess you get Jeopardy earlier than us. 7:30 here

[Nervous Ferret]

Jeop at 7, WoF at 7:30

[OssMan]

What the fuck it is the other way around here. I can't think of a logical explanation for ABC to do this.

[Nervous Ferret]

weird

[D Mac]

The Rapists

[Fignuts]

yeah I'll take ape tits for 5000.

[Kris P Lettus]

Jeopardy comes on at like 4pm here..

[OssMan]

Huge heel turn by Charlotte.

They tried to hide the Daily Doubles from Dan and it worked but he still won.

[Nervous Ferret]

piss easy final jeopardy today, obv 1492 columbus sailed the ocean blue :roll:

[Jesus Shuttlesworth]

Jeop at 7, WoF at 7:30

The hell? Its on the other way around here in Boston

[Nervous Ferret]

Yeah as Assman stated it's flipped like that in VA also. Now that I think about it, it is pretty much like that everywhere. I used to do a lot of traveling up and down the east coast with the fam, always staying in hotels I would watch Jeopardy, and WoF would come on and I'd be like 'wtffffffffff missed it' But it would only be 7:00, and I was like &&&%^what. Just remembered this anomaly. I will get to the bottom of this

[Savio]

We get it at 730 here

[OssMan]

piss easy final jeopardy today, obv 1492 columbus sailed the ocean blue :roll:yep got it right away

The Spanish Inquisition :lol:

[OssMan]

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Kristen is a mega heel

[OssMan]

Absolutely nailed NBA Retired Jerseys tonight.

Forwards and Backwards :love:

Bogus Final Jeopardy; question was unclear, stumping all the contestants into thinking it was looking for one movie.

[Savio]

what was it?

[thedamndest]

Category was "C"inema:

Seperated by 59 years, the two movies that won the Best picture Oscar.

Or something like that. I got it :).

[Savio]

WTF impossible

[Blue Demon]

potent potables

[thedamndest]

Ah, I left out the key part that they were both city names.

[Stickman]

When I watch Jeopardy I wonder what the hell I did in school.

[OssMan]

WTF impossible
Chicago and Casablanca; I simply thought it was Chicago, because the recent one was a remake wasn't it?

[Nervous Ferret]

Chicago and Casablanca; I simply thought it was Chicago, because the recent one was a remake wasn't it?

[OssMan]

piss easy final jeopardy

[Boondock Saint]

None of them knew much tonight. Lotta awkward silences...even Trebek was looking at them like dumbasses.

[OssMan]

They didn't get Beaker

[OssMan]

Wow Ethan is a HUGE heel. Had a whole fanbase in the crowd. Sucks Mufaza was only a transition champ :-\

[OssMan]

anyone take Jeopardy Online Test? took it for my dad and used crazy google :shifty:

[Indifferent Clox]

more like ass jeopardy

*snicker*

[OssMan]

Surprised they gave him Reykjavik :roll:

[Boondock Saint]

Babatope FTW

[OssMan]

babatope is weak

[Nervous Ferret]

Babatope was easily the worst champ ever, he was in the red for most of the game, and hit a few big ones at the end, then he wagered nothing on final jeopardy even though the play was clearly to risk it all, he got lucky that the defending champ was jawful at math and couldn't calculate right so he won by $100 because everybody got it wrong. Then the next day he tried to pull the same crap again only this time with a lead and he got BURNT

[FakeLaser]

This guy Dave that goes to my bar has been on Jeopardy. I have defeated him in bar trivia though so I dunno.

[OssMan]

teen tournament is lame.

best category: Balls

[Nervous Ferret]

What is the only state to have a diacritical mark in it's name when written properly?

nerf: Hawai'i obviously, freaking stupid easy

girl 1: massachusets (thats how she spelt it)
guy 1: Wyoming?
guy 2 and eventual winner: What is I have no idea?

Trebek: Hawai'i

Nerf: freaking idiots

[Boondock Saint]

ROFL @ balls.

[Xerzes]

Teen tournament sucks and I refuse to watch it.

[OssMan]

What is the only state to have a diacritical mark in it's name when written properly?

girl 1: massachusets (thats how she spelt it)
guy 1: Wyoming?
guy 2 and eventual winner: What is I have no idea?

Trebek: Hawai'i

Nerf: freaking idiotsMusta been the ep on Monday cos they didnt show it here

[Azriel]

Sucks have to wait at least another week for real jeopardy. I took the online test few weeks ago. Needless to say, I sucked :lol:

[OssMan]

O shit got tricked on final jeopardy said the Saints for "Only NFL team to play its home games out of state in a stadium named for another team" cause I thought of that game the Saints played in Giants Stadium :roll: didnt see "its home games" in the clue mom was like isn't it Giants and i was llike ojhhh must be jets dammit.

[Nervous Ferret]

yeah I looked at the Q and was like wtf, and then oh Jets obv. wtf@ the tie though. If yr. gunna go big why not calculate it so you have enough to win, only needed to put a 1 on thee end

[OssMan]

she prolly figured winning is the same as a tie? so why not give Jason some gratification as well

[Nervous Ferret]

yah good call, realized that after I said so, in a tie both are winners somehow, should have a double final jeopaRDY IMO

[OssMan]

Freakin hate the part where Trebek talks to the contestants, like the most unfunny shit today was not too bad but when Babatope was on he was all "It says here on your card that sometimes people mistake your first name for your whole name" "Well yes this one person at work just called me Bob and thought my last name was Atope and just disregarded my last name" Trebek:"Hello Bob, how is Mrs. Atope?"

[OssMan]

Also NerF did you watch any teen terna mint? That kid Hunter was the ultimate heel and I just wanted him to suffer as much as possible, that one time he got a question right and knew it was right so he just interupted Trebek tryna say "correct" n just picked the category right away, made me so freakin angry

[Nervous Ferret]

lol yeah Hunter, hate how Trebek plays up this huge rivalry between the sophmores vs. seniors vs. juniors or whatever

Also I concur on talking to contestants, so bad.

[OssMan]

ALSO the chick who won the teen tournament didn't even know what 20% of 80 was IASFJASOIUDJASIODASJ "Do the Math for 1600 Alex" "Answer: Daily Double. If a shirt is normally $80 and it is on sale for 20% off, this is the new price"

"..."
"..."
"..."
Me: "What 64 come on"
Dad: "OMG"

"..."

"Sorry, it's $64"

[PapaGeorgio]

I as well hate teen week as they often don't understand how to play Jeopardy. The go back and forth between categories all the time which annoys me greatly. Once someone starts a category, they should finish it out in most cases. Instead everyone keeps switching it up to piss me off.

Also, for those aware or unaware you can watch a fair amount of episodes of Jeopardy on youtube, they are somewhat hard to find at times. But yeah, Jeopardy is amazing, which it was on like all the time.

[OssMan]

Eh switching categories is no big diehl dont think there are any unwritten rules like that for jeopardy innit.

[OssMan]

Another day of Robin :|

[OssMan]

Wanna encourage everyone to watch Jeopardy tonight, 2-day champ is Matt, a high energy, creepy ass mofo... won $30,000 yesterday... u won't regret it...

[OssMan]

Matt poaching the Daily Doubles, mother fucker... another even $30,000 for him today... big time heel champ. Sucks he had to squash Alan

[Shisen Kopf]

I lost on Jeopardy :(

[Fignuts]

Matt poaching the Daily Doubles, mother fucker... another even $30,000 for him today... big time heel champ

Watched jeopardy a few times with my dad last week. Is Matt the dude who kept interrupting trebek to pick the next answer? Like he was on cocaine or something? Guy was mad annoying.

[OssMan]

yes that is matt...

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Matt won again on Tuesday.

[Droford]

I wish it was me

/Settles for winning 3k playing blackack

[OssMan]

B Side Wins Again... Matt is just too fast on the trigger, the other two were hitting on almost every clue but it kept going to Matt. Lots of Trebek interruptions today

[GOLDBERG'S BEST FRIEND]

Dude is the man.

No "boom" in any of his 3 daily doubles today

[Bad News Gertner]

Matt is a no nonsense motherfucker

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Young Jeopardy! Buck. Superkicking the Daily Doubles.

[OssMan]

B Side Wins Again.

MFer is only 23... thought he was at least 30

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

5-time Jeopardy! Champion. We'll be seeing him at the end of the season for sure.

[DAMN iNATOR]

This guy, Matt is really starting to piss me off...always does the "hand display" of the # of games he's won while Johnny introduces him, plays the game like he's in fucking NASCAR, and generally just takes the game (and himself, 99% of the time) way too seriously.

Don't get me wrong, I don't begrudge the guy of his winnings or his win streak, but he could stand to lighten up and relax a little. It's a freaking GAME SHOW, ffs.

I'm with you. He annoys me too.

[Nicky Fives]

He looks very autistic savant-like.....

[DAMN iNATOR]

Only problem I really have with him is the whole responding to a question then picking the next question without letting Trebek get a word in edgewise thing.

[OssMan]

B Side Wins Again.

mfer got the daily double on the first question... wasn't a runaway game today, piss easy final jeopardy allowed Matt to counter Allison's finisher into his finisher during her title shot

[OssMan]

B Side Wins Again.

Matt with $40,000 today

[DAMN iNATOR]

UGH...now he's a 10-day champion with damn near $300K...:nono:

[OssMan]

They're booking him against jobbers for the most part, so he's just holding the roster down... let's wait and see how he does on the grandest stage of them all, the jeopardy tournament of champions

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

10 Matt Jackson* Washington, D.C. $289,411

He's the 10 to qualify so far for the tournament of champions.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

The tournament starts next month too. Matty is heating up at the right time to cash in even bigger.

[OssMan]

Do you think he will cash in at Tournament of Champions?

[Lock Jaw]

Caught today's ep.... Matt dude crushed it.... got two Daily Doubles in a row, $10,000 in two questions.... poor girl in the middle kept getting things wrong and becoming increasingly exasperated....

[Lock Jaw]

Why do they call it a Daily Double if it happens more than once a day?

[OssMan]

B Side Wins Again.

Y'all see Matt get both daily doubles on his first two questions in Double Jeopardy. Finished with his highest score $50,000 even after starting out -$1,000.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Why do they call it a Daily Double if it happens more than once a day?

Apparently Merv Griffin, series creator, named it after a special attraction that happens/used to happen during a slate of horse races on a given day. To win a daily double bet, one must pick the winners of two consecutive races, hence the name.

[DAMN iNATOR]

B Side Wins Again.

Y'all see Matt get both daily doubles on his first two questions in Double Jeopardy. Finished with his highest score $50,000 even after starting out -$1,000.

He'll get got one of these days...champions who stick around on the show for too long start to make it more of a chore than fun to watch, IMO. I don't have a problem with most winners who aren't on longer than about 7 days. After that I just need to see a new champ crowned for a breath of fresh air.

[poopfromweiner dude]

I always DVR Jeop but don't always watch. I've binge marathoned the 10 day reign

[OssMan]

B Side Wins Again

damn my friend BOB's sister was on tonight, but she jobbed to Matt, even tho she finished $10,000+... Matt again got both daily doubles back to back in Double Jeopardy and won $17,000 on them...

[DAMN iNATOR]

He looked like he was close to not having the correct response for both DDs, too...if he'd missed one or both, I think there's a fair chance it wouldn't have been a runaway.

Also was surprised he didn't go for a $400K+ total tonight --- $390,411 so far.

[OssMan]

B Side Wins Again.

Matt gets both daily doubles back to back again. Strangely easy clues last night though, wonder if the writers are trying to screw Matt over.

[Fignuts]

I will find him. I will hurt him.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Here he comes.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

MATTY HAS FALLEN! MATTY HAS FALLEN! MATTY HAS FALLEN!

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

It's Over!

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

DING DONG THE WITCH IS DEAD!

[DAMN iNATOR]

I don't know who he is. I don't know what he wants. But what I do know is that I have a very particular lack of skills, and I will never locate him or take him down.

Instead, I will vainly and in futility watch this year's tournament of champions in the hopes that he eventually loses.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

How far in advance do they film episodes?

[OssMan]

New 2-day champion is a kind of dickhead

threw up "rocker hands" talking bout slayer

Reminds me of the meth guy who used to work at gamestop

[DAMN iNATOR]

How far in advance do they film episodes?

Probably like 2-4 months, I would guess...no way of knowing for sure. I do know a lot of game shows will tape a week's worth of episodes in 1 day sometimes.

Makes sense, you've got a summer break every year to film episodes for the new season...

[OssMan]

Current champion Dean is really boring on the mic... decent technical ability, works slowly at first though

[DAMN iNATOR]

Refreshing change of pace from Matt, though...also glad guy she beat is gone.

[OssMan]

Current champion is very likeable :) He is a video editor :)

Trebek was "geeking out" over the category of final jeopardy being the civil war

[OssMan]

huge crush on nicky...

[OssMan]

Tournament of Champions starting tonight

[Droford]

Alex just did a true daily double on $15,000 and got it..

[DAMN iNATOR]

Guy in the middle decimating his opponents, has $29,600 in day 1 of Finals, 2nd place has $3,400, 3rd has $3,000.

As we've all seen before, however, distant 2nd/3rd place contestants in the Final after day 1 are more than capable of making a day 2 comeback to win stunning victories. Tomorrow night's show promises to be exciting.

[OssMan]

We will find out if Matt cashes in at Tournament of Champions...

[OssMan]

He did not, came in second place..

Congrats to Alex who won the title on the grandest stage of them all

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Saw a video. Matt seemed to be cheering Alex along with his domination. Gracious loser it seems. He got paaaaiiid too though.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Interesting. Tonight's episode is all female contestants.

[OssMan]

Mad @ only 1 clue being chosen from "Ballplayers In Uniform" during double jeopardy, got it obv, was Ty Cobb...

Seems like most rounds have been ending before all clues used up, but then the show always ends at 7:24.. stupid

Big Joyce fan

[OssMan]

Unused 1000$ clue on Fruit :mad:

Katie Price weird champion going on again tonight, pretty funny..

[Locke]

There were two returning champions on last night's show, but everybody finished with $0, so there will be no returning champions on tonight's show.

[DAMN iNATOR]

There were two returning champions on last night's show, but everybody finished with $0, so there will be no returning champions on tonight's show.

Should wait until @ least 8PM E, bro. Some markets, like mine, show WoF, then Jeopardy!, instead of vice-versa.

Tonight's show featured a new champ with a surprisingly small amount of $.That's all I will say so as to avoid spoilers for those who have yet to catch up.

[Shisen Kopf]

Wheel of Fortune then Jeopardy is the only acceptable combo. Like to drink a pop while I watch Jeopardy at 7:30

The show I was talking about happened on Monday, so then last night, Tuesday, would have been the show with no returning champion. I didn't watch last night, though, so I am yet to confirm what you say about this "champ with a surprisingly small amount of $" business, homie.

[DAMN iNATOR]

College Tournament starts tonight.

[DAMN iNATOR]

OK, I dunno WTH just happened, but after tonight's winner and the 4 other semi-finalists via winning this week, as per usual, we get the other 4 contestants who get a semi-final berth via high scores among non-winners. Tonight's runner-up was one. Then I believe thwre was 4 others who all had the same qualifying score, so one or 2 got in via high score going to their game's Final Jeopardy! round, and 1 got in via high score after her game's Jeopardy! round, because she and another contestant were tied in the Final Jeopardy! score tiebreaker.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

After tonight's episode, whether or not James wins again, we will get at least a temporary reprieve from him, as the Teachers' Tournament will be aired the next 2 weeks (5/6-5/10 & 5/13-5/17). If he does win, this means his run as returning champion won't resume airing until May 20th.

That is all.

All should play like James.

Lol false alarm

[Droford]

I bet the producers wish they could have postponed this teacher's tournament. They aren't playing right.

All should play like James.

Guy on end did exactly that, hit 2 daily doubles and still lost by 17000

[DAMN iNATOR]

Tonight's show should be interesting as it's all but guaranteed that James will break Ken Jennings' record. Personally my only question is by how much.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Wonder how many James copycats there will be now.

[Lock Jaw]

He def threw the game, gambling that he could "get some" from the new champ

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

He's married and with that hair cut could be a deadend.

[Lock Jaw]

He knew the odds going in

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

She wins again. Hopefully she eliminates the crazy chick who sounded like she was jerking off her buzzer off the TOC ranks.

I could have actually answered a Final Jeopardy

[DAMN iNATOR]

The woman who defeated James, Emma Boettcher, not only made Jeopardy! history by becoming the first champion to defeat a super-champion (a contestant with 10+ wins), but also winning a second, and then a third game. She had almost $100,000 herself. Not too shabby.

Netflix has the season premiers of Alex's first 32 seasons of Jeopardy. Pretty awesome to see the difference in money, the boards and the goofy 80s and 90s hairs and fashions.

[OssMan]

What was his total b4 da taxes....

[DAMN iNATOR]

What was his total b4 da taxes....

"...and our no longer returning champion, James Holzhauer, whose 32-day cash winnings totaled 2 million, 464 thousand, 216 dollars!"[/Johnny Gilbert]

[DAMN iNATOR]

Government took $1.2 million of what his faces earnings

I don't know whom that was intended for. If it was for me, I thank you, however I have long been aware of the taxes the U.S. Government imposes on game show earnings. The majority of contestants who win prizes other than cash (such as a vehicle) are very rarely able to keep them, as the government charges so much in taxes for everything won that they simply don't have the money to pay for them without selling them to be able to pay it off.

tl;dr - Being a game show champion or winner in the U.S. is not all sunshine and rainbows.
