Hell, I'm impressed enough that he managed to bust $100k in three days, never mind the winning streak.

Well, Andrew "Boom Boom" Pau is gone. All it took to beat him was someone finding and answering every single DD while also betting big. So essentially, someone had to play the perfect game to best him and they did. It's just a shame that the person's name has to be "Buzzy".

Give him a red and white striped shirt and knit cap, and Buzzy is the spitting image of Waldo. He's already got the hair and glasses.

Buzzy - name and all - kind of feels like he's just popped out of a Leave it to Beaver episode.

I kinda wanted Jerry to win just so I could watch him emote more, but seeing angry Jerry get final wrong was worth it.

a novel written in the late 1800s in which blood is somehow critical to the plot how do you get that wrong Jerry? you were supposed to be somebody the nerds over on jboards were predicting a reign of dominance for Jerry that would make Matt Jackson look like a bitch (i see you zakharov) Soothing Vapors fucked around with this message at 03:27 on Apr 27, 2016 |

It's proof that there's so much luck involved in this game. If my name card had gotten randomly picked a day later I am certain I'd be $20k richer at least. You can study and prep and blah blah, but then you can just plum run into stuff you don't know and another dude does and he's an autistic miracle buzzer man.

As a person who also on a quiz show (that thankfully only aired on a cable station) managed to forget the category and gave two completely non-sensical answers, I can't fault Jerry too much for that one. But at least I was like 17, so that's my excuse.

Anyway, was it just me, or did Ellen seem really twitchy on the podium and looked like she almost couldn't control herself when she missed Final? Maybe I was seeing too much because I watched this episode while super tired because of poor sleep... GhostStalker fucked around with this message at 03:26 on Apr 28, 2016 |

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GtyWD9QpFME This was a surprise -- despite the original NBC run of Jeopardy lasting over 2000 episodes, there's only about a handful or so of episodes still in existence. When it was cancelled on NBC, Merv Griffin decided to try a syndicated version that managed to work in a much bigger budget. To the best of my knowledge, this is the first time one of those syndicated episodes has been found and put online. Gene Hackman Fan fucked around with this message at 01:34 on May 1, 2016 |

Hmm. The winner clearly misspelled the answer, and bet enough that it would've made a difference. Wonder if there will be any dispute over this. Especially when the category is Word Origins.
