Timby posted:Yeah, I feel like if you're going to actually be on the show, you should take a crash course in Brit Lit, landmark Supreme Court cases, pop culture (movies and television), the Revolutionary, Civil and Vietnam Wars, and, like, a Science for Dummies book, because nine times out of ten it feels like Final Jeopardy comes from one of those areas. The real bane of my existence are Shakespeare, famous universities and sports categories.

Every Jeopardy sports category is a complete cupcake if you know anything at all about sports, and I hate that contestants always get to them last.

What if the only sport you know anything about is roller derby

As if Donald Trump would ever buy anything under an assumed name. Christ. Also, knew it was Disney as soon as I saw 27,000 acres and Florida on the clue.

FJ seemed really easy today. "Tea" puts you in the mindset of "stuffy British sorts" and then it's a pretty short list of possible tournaments/events.

It's not shocking, there's nothing very specific about the format you couldn't pick up quickly.

I just wish they would stop asking contestants about their lovely, boring lives. I guess it's a good thing I'll never get picked as a possible contestant because my response to that would be "can we just play the game?" (because my life is also lovely and boring, otherwise I wouldn't have applied to try and play the game for some spending money).

It turns out that it's hard for people who have probably never been on TV to tell a concise, engaging story with a camera in their face.

Pinterest Mom posted:This is an astonishingly bad take. The stories are the best part of the show. They are easily the worst and should be skipped through with the dvr just like commercials. Jeopardys strength as a show is that it actually spends nearly all its time asking its questions unlike all the other shows that ask like 10 trivia questions in 30 minutes and spend the rest of time spinning wheels and clapping.

(because my life is also lovely and boring, otherwise I wouldn't have applied to try and play the game for some spending money). you have to come up with five stories during auditions. i don't even have a single interesting story about my life. plus they could get all the clues in every time if they eliminated it (or the 9 minutes of commercials after the game's over).

I don't think that would make for good Jeopardy TV even if I made it that far, so I wouldn't go into it.
