Alex,what is Fargambit thinks this sucks?
What is annoying Fairgambit for $1,000 Alex.
You and loosey goosey had the same idea at the same time and both made me laugh.
That's my issue. All the chatter. I was looking forward to this and am bored by it.
Just watched the final. The red headed girl is a lawyer. Good thing that she pays attention to detail.

What annoys me is that all of them know more answers than I do.

No, they just know the questions that match up to the answers on that particular show. A different set of answers, it could be The Sounds of Silence music playing in the background.
For example, Diane Lane.....you’d go through those five answers with the correct five questions without the other contestants knowing what hit them.
It’s ALL about the CATEGORIES.
Very true. The problem is that I am well versed in 3 categories and the champions, on average, in 4,289.
I think this format sucks.
What is 'fairs' dream girl for $200 Alex?
The answer is: ANY nude woman!!!
I think this format sucks.
Agreed. Too much chatter and it's like the Super Bowl, too much meaningless background stuff and setup fluff and not enough actual action, at least the first night.
My wife and I watch at least some of Jeopardy most nights and it's as great a show as it ever was (I'm old enough to remember the version with Art Fleming that I watched as a kid). The thing about Jeopardy is that it isn't a "team" sport, it's an individual competition, and trying to make it a "team" sport just seems rather forced. I'll be glad when this "tournament" thing is over.
And for you young whippersnappers out there, here's a peek at what Jeopardy REALLY was:
I agree about the "too much talk", human interest format. Of course, I have the same attitude toward Olympic broadcasts but I realize that they are trying to bring in a broader audience. No doubt they'll use up 3 days to play 2 games with the other set of teams next week. My hope is that they'll then pick up the pace for the championship rounds.
Too much talk. Just play the game.I think this format sucks.
Great photo!Agreed. Too much chatter and it's like the Super Bowl, too much meaningless background stuff and setup fluff and not enough actual action, at least the first night.
