I honestly didn't care. I thought something happened in Final the way everyone was talking. I didn't even want to watch since due to outside issues I've gotten yelled at repeatedly the last three days

Oof and that was an easy 2000 clue to at least get positive at the end.

I thought about why they didn't buzz in on the last clue, but it would have been a $1000 risk for no upside, so it actually made sense, in retrospect.

Hulu cloud dvr just decided to not record it tonight, awesome.

Other shows at least have on demand the next day. Why do they make Jeopardy basically impossible to watch except live :(

Yeah, there's always some mediocre stream with weird A/V edits to I guess prevent it from being taken down. Last night it had a guy's face in the corner for the entire episode, and then he spent two minutes after the episode talking in Arabic.

I saw that and was worried he was gonna start trying to guess the answers so I turned it off immediately.

I also tried watching another stream first, but the others had such bad A/V issues that I decided to put up with the face. I think he just had it there to look like he was doing a Twitch stream or something.

I honestly don't know why I didn't think to do that. I guess I just assumed they were always instantly taken down.

Is there anywhere that has old seasons? Hulu will throw up a random assortment sometimes, but I'd really love to have a full old season from a while back (especially years I didn't have a tv) to just drill through episode after episode for the practice.

Sadly, there isn’t, but gosh, that’d be great.

The Internet Archive has a ton of episodes people have uploaded, but they're not organized.

Wild stab that they're trying to sell t-shirts and swag, at least from the subtitle. You can microtarget like crazy with ads on Facebook, so it's possible they're sending the ad out to all Jeopardy fans figuring that Facebook jeopardy fans are ripe for some anti-Mayim shirts.

Well, there you go. What's odd (or maybe not), when these "ads" appear under my news feed, I can't report or block them. When I try I get an "oops! Something went wrong!" error messages. But then I get this whenever I try to report/block ANY sponsored ads.

I highly doubt Meta will give up their cash cow. It's just better to not use it.

Interesting that Ken made a retort to a triple stumper that got all three players laughing. At this point, he could host this in his sleep and it would still be compelling minus snoring.

Yeah, Ken’s got it down at this point. He’s gotten better and better over time, and he’s firing on all cylinders now.

He’s the anti-Mayim.

Mattea gets more annoying with each passing day

My partner is a lawyer and found her insufferable at the start (professional LSAT tutor :rolleyes:), but has warmed up to her.

I still find her annoying but not as bad as other champs.

I do not wear this mask to protect me. I wear it to protect you from me.

She's the most polite of champions. She's obviously having fun and has won enough she just plays very relaxed.

Ken has hosted so long now that it should be very obvious to Sony that nobody gives a poo poo about his mean tweets or whatever they were worried about.

My only complaint about Ken is I want him to be like 30% meaner to the contestants in the interview portion.

Ken is such a good host. When he did his first week of it I actually didn't think he was right for the part despite really liking him, but he's gotten so good at it that I can't fathom anyone else at this point.

it's a wild coincidence that most of the people i see criticizing mattea (not here, necessarily) are the same ones who complain about auditioning 15 times and always passing the test and inexplicably not getting picked for the show. like, they picked her because she's fun and obviously enjoying herself. this is how you get on jeopardy! stop malding and take notes, dorks

e: obviously i'm not saying everyone has to like her, but you gotta understand that superchamps with personalities are sony's dream and they're loving every minute of it
