lmbo poo poo, got picked for a Jeopardy audition and there is literally no way I will pass it. 3 weeks to brush up on presidents, the Bible, geography, and all the other categories I suck at. Anybody who's made it to the audition, got any tips???

I've heard watching a bunch of episodes back to back helps. This reddit user uploads every episode (the google drive ones get taken down in a couple weeks, so just go for the Daily Motion mirror if it's an older ep).

I'm a contestant on tomorrow's show, and so was in the audience for the "You Lost That Lovin' Feeling" ruling, and what you saw in the episode was much different than what happened.

Originally Ryan sang his response, which was judged correct, but caused Alex to respond with a "Oh no, now we'll have to pay royalties!" They stopped tape during the break, and we in the audience thought they were checking to see if it was indeed going to be a rights issue. Instead, they came back and said that, instead of singing the correct title, he instead sang "You" instead of "You've". So, they opted to reshoot the sequence, with Ryan saying his wrong answer instead of singing, and being judged incorrect.

If you noticed that the opponents didn't get a chance on the rebound, that's why.

:allears:

I actually hope he keeps the streak going.

If they accepted ‘Green Market’ they definitely should have accepted ‘teetotaler’

The clue was asking for the name of the movement, not the supporters. Teetotalism only has 2 Es.

:psyduck: Elon Musk is not British, is not an inventor1, and is not involved in household appliances.







1 I know the clue said innovator and not inventor, but the the ballbarrow part means the right answer is somebody who's an inventor.

This might be just me, but FWIW I did not look at the scores at all except for the short daily doubles pause. You just don't really have time to do it.

Speaking of which, I've always wondered where the scores are displayed for contestants. A screen on your podium? Somewhere on the set that's off-camera?

I hate how incredulous Brad looks when Trebek tells him he's wrong. Trebek knows best dude.

Pancreatic's one of the worst ones, isn't it? And stage 4 too... :smith: Best of luck, Trebek.

Anybody who thinks the buzzer thing is "ruining the show" needs to take a big step back and get the gently caress over themselves. I've barely even noticed it. It's Jeopardy, you're gonna hear some clicking sometimes.

:psyduck: I confused myself I guess.

It's not just you, I saw an article a few days ago about Trebek signing off for the season. I guess it must have meant they've just filmed the last ep of the season.




Unrelated, anybody know of a non-TV-subscription way to watch since the reddit guy got shut down? :(

Apparently the mystery contestant they announced for the Masters today is... Amy? That's certainly more boring than some of the suggestions people made. :(

Oh the bigoted dipshits in the youtube comments will love that.


Unrelated, I started watching Jeopardy again a few months ago after several years and noticed they always say the full category title now, sometimes even starting to abbreviate it before catching themselves. Did the producers tell them to do that? Supposed to be easier for viewers to follow I guess?
