Tigershark November 26, 2014 Share November 26, 2014 Nothing will ever top the way that girl in the Teen Tournament (I think?) answered "Who is Bella?" for a Twilight question with such complete and utter disdain. It was a thing of beauty. To be fair, I probably would have done the same. Twilight is awful, and Bella is a terrible character. Yet another clue about Hawaii where no one gives a correct response, although this time it was a DD. I can't believe Eugene missed the Josephine DD. It seemed so easy to me. It seemed to me that if you know the bare basics about French history, it was not hard to figure out. I could tell by his wager, he probably did not have any confidence in that category.

mojoween November 27, 2014 Share November 27, 2014 Did I miss something in the Second Novel category? The answer was "The Two Towers" and Joel said "The Fellowship of the Ring." So they were looking for the name of the first book? Because I thought they were looking for series and so "The Lord of the Rings" would be right, but nothing was said about it. I also gave the side-eye to Alex saying "what is" when Joel said "Freaks" because what was that about? Joel was making me nervous because his nervousness was coming at me from the screen. Perhaps running a marathon before your taping wasn't the best idea. My dialogue to the hubs during FJ - I blurted out "Grapes of Wrath", but then said well maybe it's "Gone With the Wind?" Or perhaps "Of Mice and Men?" But then I said well Oklahoma is in the answer so that sounds like it's important, so I'm going to stick with Grapes because you should always go with your first instinct. And lo and behold, Alex read my mind and said that Oklahoma was important.

ottoDbusdriver November 27, 2014 Share November 27, 2014 (edited) Are the writers just getting lazy -- that's two 20th century book FJs in two days ? There are lots of other categories they can use for FJ, I swear. Add to that the movie actor category repetition -- Channing Tatum movies last Friday, Brad Pitt movies yesterday. Does this mean that 6 months from now we will be looking at a category of Eric Roberts movies since they are running out of actors </snark>. The flags made out of food category yesterday was just bizarre, followed up by today's Dinner and a Broadway show -- with a picture of pot roast, of all things, as the $1000 clue. The category really should have been 'Dinner or a Broadway show' since the none of the answers included both aspects of the category title, because after the $400 clue I was musing if there was every a Broadway show called 'Lobster' ('cause you never know). Did I miss something in the Second Novel category? The answer was "The Two Towers" and Joel said "The Fellowship of the Ring." So they were looking for the name of the first book? Because I thought they were looking for series and so "The Lord of the Rings" would be right, but nothing was said about it.

ChicagoCita December 6, 2014 Share December 6, 2014 In reading Arthur's column about being back on Jeopardy, it helped me put a finger on what I find annoying about him. People lose weight every day, for various reasons, and Arthur's one of them. Yet he can't just say, hey, I like how I look on camera better, or I like how I feel better, or I think I'm more attractive at this weight, or whatever other reason he had for losing 30 pounds. It turns into some silly self-obsessive reason that's somehow related to being the villain of the season. Dude, you lost weight, people noticed, no one cares beyond that. I just find his me-me-me worldview annoying, and his self-perceived starring role in the Jeopardy universe as the contemptible villain tiresome. We're all fascinated by ourselves, but most people don't put it out there for the world to see. FWIW, I thought Brad Rutter looked better at his original weight. ;-) 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3972-all-episodes-discussion-the-daily-double/page/37/#findComment-629235

Tunia January 22, 2015 Share January 22, 2015 With a little bit of nosy research after viewing the show's credits, I found an interesting bit of Jeopardy! trivia: Grant Loud, Promotions Director, is the same who appeared with his family in the (filmed in 1971, broadcast in 1973) PBS TV series, "An American Family", considered to be the first true reality programming. He is married to Michelle Silverman Loud, one of Jeopardy!'s writers. One of many sources: http://www.nytimes.com/2013/06/16/fashion/the-mother-of-all-housewives.html?pagewanted=all&_r=1& I think his mother, Pat, still looks very true to her 1971 image.

HelenBaby January 22, 2015 Share January 22, 2015 I'm not going to quote your post, Tunia, but when I was a contestant in 1997, he was one of the contestant "minders" for the lack of a better word. We were picked up at the parking garage and drove to the entrance of the studio. He was one of the people who escorted us to the green room and did the pre-interview with us for our personal interest stories. Anyway, I recognized him immediately and asked him if he was one of that family. He answered yes, but then one of the other contestants started asking him a bunch of personal questions, like she knew the whole family personally. It was a weird situation but that particular contestant was overbearing anyway. Of course, she completely bombed during her game, about which I got a small sense of satisfaction. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3972-all-episodes-discussion-the-daily-double/page/37/#findComment-748540

Driad October 27, 2015 Share October 27, 2015 Back in maybe the early 90s I watched Jeopardy for a while but gave up because I noticed they were accepting quite a few incorrect answers. Not just spelling, but (say) that a quote was from Hamlet when it was really from Macbeth. I was watching in the hope of learning things, so I figured that if some of those I knew were wrong, probably some of those I didn't know were wrong too, and I didn't want to learn misinformation. Recently I started watching again, and have not noticed wrong answers, but maybe that is because I am paying less attention. How does this compare with other viewers' experience?

MrAtoz July 5, 2019 Share July 5, 2019 I've also been watching the old games on Netflix. Specifically, so far I've seen Season 1, Episode 1, and Season 2, Episode 1. Fascinating to see the way the show was presented early on. The most obvious difference, apart from Alex's appearance, is that he did a lot more explaining of how the game worked in the early days. Today they just take it for granted that everybody understands the game, but back then he started off by going through how the game was played in case anybody wasn't familiar. Also, the "end of round" sound effect was a lot more obnoxious! And in the first season, you could ring in as soon as you knew the answer! They didn't go to the "wait until Alex finishes reading the clue" rule until the start of Season 2. Alex specifically announced the change in the rules, and said it was to make it easier for viewers at home to play along. A couple of curiosities: You'd think that Season 1, Episode 1 would be the first episode ever aired. And yet it had a returning champion who had somehow already won 2 games. Wha?? Season 2, Episode 1 featured a misspoken contestant response. Someone said "What is The Hounds of the Baskervilles" (rather than the correct "Hound"), and Alex accepted it. These days that would get corrected later, and the contestant would have had some money deducted. But they let it pass, and never corrected it. Shocking! And even then, there was the occasional contestant who started in the middle of a category! It's fun to see the way the game was played in the early days. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3972-all-episodes-discussion-the-daily-double/page/37/#findComment-5423021

Occasionally, they would show the pilot episodes of game shows on Buzzr TV and they would have a "returning" champ, who probably wasn't "returning", but just called him/her that to show what the game would be like when it wasn't the premiere episode of the series. BTW, if you really wanted to see how a game show evolved, try to find early (like 61/62) episodes of "The Price is Right". Practically unrecognizable compared to today's TPIR. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3972-all-episodes-discussion-the-daily-double/page/37/#findComment-5423581

Prevailing Wind July 6, 2019 Share July 6, 2019 My Grandparents were addicted to the Bill Cullen/Price is Right. They had separate bedrooms; Nana would go to bed early & Poppop was a night owl. One morning in 1961, she, as usual, was up way before he was. Come around time for him to get up, she put on a pot of coffee, knowing that would rouse him (his bedroom was right next to the kitchen.) It didn't wake him. Come 11, time for TPIR, she went in to wake him up & discovered he had died during the night. I've always wondered if it hadn't been for TPIR, how long she would have waited before checking on him. (He had the most peaceful expression on his face.) Personally, I think the old TPIR was a more interesting show. I hate all these shows with the flashing lights & fake excitement. I like a low-key show, which is probably why I love Jeopardy! 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/3972-all-episodes-discussion-the-daily-double/page/37/#findComment-5425015
Abstract July 6, 2019 Share July 6, 2019 I watched the pilot episode last night. I was in the hotel fitness room and didn't have earbuds, so I watched with close captioning on. The players were much more hyper, applauding for themselves after every correct response, practically jumping up and down. Jeopardy has definitely become more dignified since then!

SoMuchTV July 10, 2019 Share July 10, 2019 Yay for Celebrity Jeopardy. A category today is an album cover.
