BaronVonVaderham posted:You're correct except for the amount of money involved. This has cost contestants MILLIONS over the years. That wouldn’t have won him a million. How it works is that if you land on the million wedge and solve the puzzle you then take it and if you win the game and get to the final puzzle round the million replaces the 100k envelope in the prize spinner which is like one of 30 or something. Then you have to solve the puzzle. It’s only happened twice in 12 years I believe.

I'm really down for Katie being the permanent host if they don't go with Ken or give LeVar a chance.

Katie did ok, she was stiff at first but got more comfortable as time wore on. I don't think she'll get or take the job though. Dr. Oz is next so I expect a non-zero amount of TV's to undergo immolation on Monday.

Timeless Appeal posted:I'm really down for Katie being the permanent host if they don't go with Ken or give LeVar a chance. Ugh, God, no. I hate the way she talks to the contestants like she's a first-grade teacher. "Yes, good job, everyone! Now we get to play some more!" Just terrible and forced. Also, people need to remember that these guest hosting spots aren't auditions, they're running out the clock on the season and trying to goose the ratings before announcing a new permanent host when the new season starts taping in July or August.

Host aside, that was a great contest, and the winner seems like a character. Reminds somehow of a Start Trek actor, though not sure if it’s Brent Spiner or Dr Phlox.

Nick sucks. He's annoying, and I know it's only been one game, but I don't think he's good enough to win consistently with Holzhauer's strategy. e: I hope he loses soon, but I will give him props, I don't remember anyone copying Holzhauer's strategy so exactly and actually winning.

Everyone knows the answer, but we need to spin the wheel 8 more times to guess every letter in it rather than just reveal the clue because that's how you maximize winnings.

Lmao if you’re not a fan of a game show because of that NEVER EVER watch the game show The Wall which will literally give you millions of dollars and then take it away a minute later. Seriously Lebron James decided to take Plinko and turn it into the single cruelest game show on the planet.

If you need something to do in the next two weeks and you happen to play Learned League, go ahead and vote for option 38 for Best Wrong Answer! This is my trivia peak and I will never do anything this cool again ever.

And of course Dr. Oz is donating the money from his guest hosting stint to his own charity.

Word on the street is that it was not a good experience for the people who taped and that one of the tape days went until 9pm, which is insane. (This is not first hand information, it’s a rumour only)

yea assuming it's true unless a contestant literally shat themselves or there was something insane like a long blackout the only reason it'd be that long is if Oz was sucking real bad.

Serious question: what the hell were they thinking? I've seen 100% negative reactions to it, and I can't imagine for the life of me the thought process that leads to having Dr. Motherfucking Oz host Jeopardy!
