His kid was hungry and wanted a can of beans and he refused to make them until she figured out to open the can herself six hours later. It’s really lovely and I don’t think food should ever be used as an incentive like that but I do think the phrasing of “all but starved” conjures something worse than that

I think Ken did fine considering the circumstances. This was always going to be the worst show just as a result of Ken not having a lot of experience and all the pressure that comes with having the first post-Alex episode. I imagine he'll become more comfortable with the following games.

Yeah, even if you're not a fan of Jennings hosting he at least understands that and made it pretty clear from the start. Maybe it will improve once there's a permanent host but I'm starting to have some real concerns about the Jeopardy Interrgum

Ken, Brad, and James should just go on the show again and gently caress around SNL Celebrity Jeopardy style for whoever the guest host is.

Timby posted:Ken is settling down, and I'm willing to give him time considering today's episode was still part of his very first day of actually taping shows, but he still kind of has the high-pitched, almost-nasal "well actually" timbre of the A/V nerd in high school, and that's something that won't go away. He doesn't have the casual authoritative gravitas that Trebek brought with him. That's not a crime in any way, no one will ever be Trebek, but I just don't feel like Ken is the right choice for a long-term, permanent host. Yeah, I think that's probably going to be something you'll see from any of the potential hosts for at least the next few months. Trebek did this for 30 years, he might as well have been Jeopardy itself, it's going to be longer than a week before people start to move on from that

KICK BAMA KICK posted:I was excited cause it looked like someone realized they were in a category they liked down against a strong player and understood they needed to bet big instead of just falling into the habit of betting the difference or a little less, and then they got a gimme clue... I didn't even bother trying to solve it that way. I just tried to think of a famous Ewan McGregor movie from that time and trainspotting sounded like it could be a hobby. E: Honestly I solve a lot of them that way, by ignoring the "main" clue and figuring it out from one of the other hints. christmas boots fucked around with this message at 20:51 on Jan 27, 2021 |

GhostStalker posted:I’ve noticed that Final categories have seemed to get oddly specific lately, but that just might be the writers trying to lay on some flare and not really hitting their mark. Got tonight’s Final pretty much instantly though. Trebek started saying it towards the end of his run but I don't remember it showing up prior to 2020.

Duckman2008 posted:Actually, everyone who goes on Jeopardy does eventually lose. Whether it’s one game, or 20 games, they all lose in the end. You could go as far as saying that if you get on Jeopardy, the only guarantee for your future is that you will, at some point, lose on Jeopardy. What about the contestants back when there was a five game limit? Or was Brad the only one who ever hit that?

There's something like a million Romani-Americans in the US, most of whom have largely assimilated. Americans are barely aware of them as an ethnicity let alone that there's a preferred nomenclature.

Considering he flashed one and two fingers after his first and second wins he might just be trying to signal that he’s won three times and it just looks really bad E: nope never mind, the fan account that pointed this out seems to think now that those were just for deniability https://twitter.com/_thejeopardyfan/status/1387244555083337730?s=21

Yeah the joke became real at some point. That's not to say that everyone flashing the OK symbol is making a white power sign--that would be a profoundly stupid reaction and the very one the trolling was meant to cause in the first place--but sometimes they definitely are. But there's always a tell.

It seems relevant that he was probated for the same kind of bigoted behavior that he's arguing did not take place and that other people are ridiculous for seeing. I think it helps inform that he's not coming from a place of honest disagreement.
