That was certainly one of the more memorable episodes of the season. I really did want Iola to shout out to Raytown though

The sic semper tyrannis daily double was a beautiful sequence. $2,000 (Omigod, I really said $2,000) $2... (not $2,000, $2,000, what do I do, should I go with it, I'll go with it) $2,000 this phrase by John Wilkes Booth ([Big grin] omg, I'm actually gonna pull this off!) Sic semper tyrannis

Is there a good way to stream this without having to pay for CBS All Access? I'm getting tired of my final jeopardies being interrupted by Trump.

We just got CBS All Access because it has a month free (for these times , whatever). Didn’t realize it streamed on this, so thanks, indirectly, for the tip !

How do players challenge a ruling? Is there a button they can press so it doesn’t interrupt the game and then they come back to it or do they have to do it on breaks? Raise their hand?

Marshall from last night's episode drove me insane with his leaning on the podium (and shooting up suddenly when he rings in) and loving with his sleeve cuffs and fingers constantly. I'll take the normal "wailing on the buzzer and doing a weird wind-up with my flailing arm" over that bullshit any day. I get it, nerves, but holy poo poo it was really hard for me to watch for some reason. At least stand up straight instead of splaying yourself out over your podium after every clue.

He just got really into it, I say good for him.

Nibir's been solid in the previous rounds, but he quietly just destroyed everybody today. They're going to have to beat him by $21,500 tomorrow to win.

I was sitting with my mouth agape for a solid five seconds when that happened. My girlfriend, who knows nothing of baseball, finally said, "What is it?"

I was pretty sure the one dude who kept misspeaking also said "Shiners" instead of "Shriners" but they never called him out on it.

Alex really needs to stop referencing James anyone someone bets it all on a Daily Double or does anything remotely different from robotically giving a number.

A question for those who know jeopardy well (as in former contestants or insiders)... Do they coach contestants to say the full name of the category every. single. time. ? Even when it's a laborious long bad pun type name? If so, it's no wonder the recent games never clear the board when everyone is supposed to 'say.the.very.very.long.stupid.pun.category' every single time. Me? I'd be calling them with one word abbreviations, or just saying "same, 1600" (for example).

sunnyboy posted:A question for those who know jeopardy well (as in former contestants or insiders)... No, they tell you to go as fast as you can and so to make the category names as short as possible while still being understandable. But they do tell you to avoid things like "same category" for the sake of Alex's brain being able to understand it quickly enough. But instead of "Countries that start with an E" you could go "Countries E for $400" It's possible that in the last year or so they've changed it because of Alex's situation and asked people to start using the full category names.

Not to say "same category" or "finish the category" or anything that might throw alex off, but to identify it without saying the full name, for sure. the trick is to figure out which category is obviously sponsored by some company and leave that for last because they won't end the round until it's been completed

Vulture Culture posted:got today's first Daily Double before the clue was shown A couple years back the Final Jeopardy category was 2-Word World Capitals and I got it the second they showed it. Blew my mind the person in second missed it since the clue itself made it insanely obvious: From 1936 to 1941 this city was the capital of Italian East Africa.

I really hate the categories where 'famous people' are called to speak the clue, especially if the clue is more than one 'page' long.
