Do you watch Jeopardy?
Yesterday Ken Jennings won his 30TH Jeopardy game in a row, and has earned over ONE MILLION DOLLARS. This guy has blown away every record on Jeopardy (or any other game show for that matter).
He is a fucking PHENOMENON. He simply demolishes his competition. Almost every final Jeopardy has been a runaway in his favour.
I'll bet Jeopardy has the best ratings in years. I am watching every day to see who is finally going to beat him. Anybody else watching?

I used to watch that show a lot, but not so much anymore.
I heard about this guy... Quite the feat.

Did anybody here watch SCTV? Eugene Levy does a hilarious impersonation of Alex Trebek. It was a spoof of Jeopardy called "Half-Wits".

32 wins and still going.
I should correct an earlier statement (if anyone cares): he hasn't set the most-money-earned Jeopardy record... yet. Somebody previously won over a million dollars but if he keeps winning he should set a new record by next week. I'll keep you posted!

I wonder how he can retain so much knowledge? It's one thing to be the best in certain areas, but Jeopardy covers a variety of topics.
Some people have the ability to remember actors, actresses, and all the directors, and movie trivia stuff. Other people remember all kinds of things about musicians and the music world. But, this guy seems to know stuff about every topic.
Definitely have to bow down to this guy. No way in hell would I even come close to playing the game as well as he has done.
Way to go Ken! 
I'll probably turn into a Jeopardy junkie just to see how far he goes and who beats him.

Does anyone know how many shows they tape in a day? We were thinking that he's got a bit of an edge since he's in the "clicker rhythm" too... not to mention he's not afraid to bet big and pull out ahead on the Daily Doubles!
I love Jeopardy...
When I was on Spring Break in Daytona back in college, I passed out for a bit while the rest of the girls went to get some food... when they came back to the room, I was laying on the bed still asleep but answering the Jeopardy questions that were on tv! They were really impressed when I was getting 'em right!!
Webgurl - it figures that we even like the same TV shows...lol
Cheers!

Do you think its rigged like 64K question in the 50/60's?
When does it go from being great luck and sureal to being just rigged?
