This rules! Never seen a triple bust before. What happens if everyone is in the red at the end of Double Jeopardy? Do they just throw the episode out?

My cable crapped out just before the final, so I didn't get to see the reaction. Greg had a big lead, so what was he thinking? Alex called him chicken in the first episode. Did he take it to heart? Other things I noticed: - The podium lights didn't always work when a contestant rang in. - Two players rang in at the same time and Alex wasn't really sure what to do. - The answers are more specific here than in the first game. Clues are so much easier. The Oregon Trail clue was the last one in the category and actually had Oregon in the answer. They missed one about the Olympics that had Mount Olympus in the answer. They're not exactly acing these easy clues. I'm looking at J! Archive and it looks like the difficulty was ramped up for the second season. I hope they upload more vault stuff to YouTube. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4uIk75MBT-4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tbEy3PHlTdg Bonus: Someone's uploaded this 1974 Art Fleming episode. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MIIWX0m3I-w

The best part was Alex forgetting to give the right answer and some random in the audience screaming "WHAT'S THE RIGHT ANSWER??" to get him to say it. Boy did that ever have an amateur hour feel to it...

All I know is that I was actually getting kinda aggravated that they were allowing people to hit the buzzer before Alex had even finished asking the question.

Yeah, the closest was that one episode a couple years back where two of the contestants finished in the red and the champion had final jeopardy all to herself lol

Dude's now 80. He can start chemo, stop chemo, hell he can rebuild the late eighties set by hand for all I care; he's playing with house money at this point.

Seems like they really liked "cell" and "(the apostle) Thomas" as questions back then.

I just finished my rookie season and am going into C. According to the one-day mine was one of the most competitive rookie groups out there so hopefully there's some B in my future.

The Forrest Bounce was revolutionary, but isn't wild now. Forrest would jump between categories, but he was doing so in order. He wasn't starting in the middle of the category, but rather where it had been left off. This did feel like Jeopardy, though. Much different than those first two games. Spangenberg is on tomorrow. I want to think that I remember his original run.

The intro also really builds up for the anticipation for the theme to really start.

I wish they still walked out to that build-up music too. It's just such a Look.

Glad to see the tradition of avoiding sports alive back in 1988. Also, I love Trebek so much.

It's sadly always been the case. I remember it driving my dad nuts even when I was a kid (and it driving me nuts as I got older).

I can safely say that 1994 is the most perfect form of jeopardy for me, all other sets will be just wrong in some way.

I mean, he's probably at home and can knock something out; getting it to the affiliates could take time. I'd bet an in memory card at the end.

That was an actually good Celebrity Jeopardy episode too, though leaving so many clues covered in Double Jeopardy (including the second Daily Double) pained me. Such good byplay, even if that ate up time for more clues and such. Good reminder of how well Regis could play to a partner with rapport.

Did Regis ever do stand-up comedy? He had the delivery and timing of someone who could have made a decent living at it. This episode made me realize how cool he was (it had been a while since I had actually seen Regis in anything).
