Jeopardy and Ken Jennings
Okay, I'll admit I'm hooked. I always loved Jeopardy, but never made an actual effort to schedule it until now. Ken Jennings looks absolutely unbeatable, and I'll bet he won't be able to scare up a game of Trivial Pursuit when he finally gets back home.
My wife feels sorry for all the other contestants who blew their one big shot at being on Jeopardy by going up against Superman. She thinks that all of the losers from the Jennings Dynasty should get a second chance.
Does anybody know how far in advance this thing is taped? Days? Weeks? Maybe months? If so, there are people out there right now who were in the studio audience the day Jennings finally gets beaten, and why aren't they talking?
Unless, as Trebeck alluded the other day, the season will end with Jennings still on top. If that happens, does he get to come back next season? And since when did Jeopardy need a "season" anyway?
