gee i wonder
its always those autists who have to power through each question and scream the category before he even answers the last one.

countdown is more comfy.
only connect is harder.

jeopardy is mainly general knowledge. It's preparation over on the fly skill.

Alex is a Highlander.

Is Ken Jennings' win the clutchest sustained performance by a GOAT to reclaim and hold onto his GOATness ever?
>come back after a long layoff against the next GOAT who is fresh off his run
>play a format which seemingly heavily benefits said opponent
>beat said opponent at his own game using his own techniques
No one would have blamed Jennings for coming in rusty and losing this. But he came in, updated his skillset to the modern game, and balled out of his mind to put down the young revolutionary and claimed eternal GOATness in the process.

But imagine the shame of being less famous than your effectively mute sidekick

One thing that pissed me off recently is the gave a guy an answer after commercial break cause some word meant the same shit in indian/paki

That is correct

Alex Jacob is a literally who at jeopardy.

didn't he make it to a champions final?

dont forget about the qts

That’s part of the Forrest method. Anyone who uses proper game theory does it.

He won a tournament of champions, he's far from a literally who

I meant in terms of the GOAT race.

Yep, it's absolute kino.

There's nothing else like it on tv and never will be again. Its not loud, exciting, dramatic, HIP and WITH IT enough to ever have existed outside of the time period it started in.
Even so, I hope they don't keep it going after Trebek finally goes. I see it as his show.

Yeah I agree. I think Julia Collins is the most underrated champion and she’s my personal favorite. I believe she has the third place record for longest run, and she did it all running categories from top to bottom with classic Jeopardy etiquette.

Is this the shittiest game show of all time?

Final Jeopardy........... Literature
>fml

It was pretty great, but people overhype the myth of Holzhauer. Ken used the same techniques during his run. It was all laid out in a book by Chuck Forrest back in the late 90s.

when it's 2 black families it's like a black speaking in tongues church service

The best part is that they aren’t even real families lol.

This would be perfect since Norm is also Canadian and smart enough to be the host.

It's second to Family Feud.
Guessing at what the dumb Americans gave for poll answers is way better.
Steve Harvey mocking dumb answers is better than Alex Trebek's grumpiness.

>An in depth knowledge of the metagame isn't required to win, you just have to be smart
It isn't, but if you want anyone to know that you have won, you need to.

.........please be sarcastic, do you actually think they poll people?

where is "Riga"?

Not that guy but pretty sure they get a hundred people at a major shopping mall to fill out one questionnaire that probably gives them questions for an entire season at a time

The pass option is only there for the really bullshit questions.

how is trebek grumpy? he's always nice to them even when rude, and when the autistic ones spill their spaghetti in the between round interviews he always makes them seem normal.

Jeopardy is for virgins. The Price Is Right is for chads.

>if the fates don't like you you won't even be called onto the show
>you have to outplay 3 opponents just to get on the stage, often using the ultimate chad method of bidding over or under the last guy's amount by a single dollar just to screw him over
>constant surprises await as a 10/10 supermodel shows you potential prizes which can range from a pack of markers to a brand new car you can peel out of the parking lot the moment the show ends
>audience worships you while screaming at your every gesture
>there's no virgin autist mathematics or game theory getting the right answer is purely based on trusting your gut and whether or not fortune recognizes your huge balls
>getting into the final showcase involves vanquishing more enemies by spinning a giant wheel furiously trying to land on the perfect pair of numbers
>the final showcase prizes are random as well and there's always a shittier one so you could either end up with a sailboat and a month long vacation at Ibiza or a dalmation dog and a push mower

Why was he incapable of smiling?

He's not always grumpy, but it's just a steady increase in grumpiness over the years.
I stopped watching for a while, and when I started up again, he was noticeably more grumpy.
It happens with age.

I unironically think wheel of fortune is harder than jeopardy. I can get like like 10 answers a round on Jeopardy but fuck me, I will never be able to solve a puzzle unless there's like 2 letters left

Attached: woj inhale.png (205x246, 4.36K)

I thought the same thing, thought it was Kiev, looked it up, saw I was wrong and didn't notice it wasn't Balkans until I saw your post

He probably wasn't feeling too good either I mean he has stage 4 cancer
