I watched it last night and forgot how fun it is.

I taped it on YouTube TV and am watching it again. I can usually get between 10 and 20 answers right.

CSB.

Anyone else a Jeopardy fan?

It's not the same without Alex (RIP).

I never miss an episode. 10-15 correct answers are my max. I have got final Jeopardy a few times when all 3 contestants failed to get right answer.
 
I got 10 answers right tonight including Final Jeopardy Beethoven.

Pascal's Wager was one answer...you know I got that one right!

Watch every day. I record it and watch it in the morning before work. Skip the commercials and the chit chat. Ken is great compared to Blossom.
 
Love it. Watched it nightly for 20+ years and off and on before that. I even remember when Art Fleming was the host.

My daughter has made it past the testing into the pool where they pick contestants twice. She didn't get picked once and is currently in the pool.

I take the Anytime test and blow it every time.

I remember watching it with my Grandma and Art Fleming was the host.
 
I watch Jeopardy a fair amount when I'm home. A lot of the category are artsy, so I wouldn't do well. I like trying to figure out the best betting strategy in Final Jeopardy. I also like picking someone to cheer for, and someone to cheer against.

I've been watching Jeopardy all week.

I've averaged about 14 answers right and as soon as the show ends, I can only remember 2 or 3.

Is that normal?

Like all my TV, it's cyclical and is reduced due to doing parenting stuff. But we used to watch it a lot. Want to make final jeopardy really challenging? When they give you the category and go to commercial, try to guess the final jeopardy answer. I've gotten it right two or three times.

I’m okay without Alex, but they completely botched the replacement process, and for a couple of years (maybe more?) the show seems to be nothing but tournaments of champions. I’ve been a regular viewer for decades, but I haven’t watched much since Alex passed, just because the show is now a hot mess.

I still record every night. I like Ken Jennings. I watched his 74 game winning streak.

Ken is fine. It should have been Buzzy Cohen AINEC. Mayim was a terrible idea. But they should have made a choice and stuck to it. This "auditioning live" stuff is a terrible idea.

He used to make $50K per episode.

Not bad...probably the average HBOT income.
Especially when you work 2 days a week and get like 2 to 3 months off a year. They film 5 episodes a day on Tuesday and Wednesday. 10 episodes a week and you work like 42 weeks. That's 21 million a year. Not bad.
