Jeopardy!

He should give the money to the contestants that don't come in first place

How do we stop him from bankrupting the show? They're gonna have to shut down Trebek's health insurance at this rate. He's going to literally kill Jeopardy.

was there a new show today? I missed it if there was

i fucking hate this autistic NEET mutt so much

!!!!$130,022!!!!

If they want to win so badly why don't they beat him?

Jeopardy is produced by Sony Pictures TV. I think Sony can afford to take the hit.

Seething

Some guy tried to play like a baller the other day and got shit on.
But that's what it's going to take to beat james, someone that hunts for the DDs and bets big

>trebek watching the show he spent decades of his life hosting get completely destroyed right before he dies

Fucking tragedy here

yeah, and that was on, what, his fifth show? he basically took roger craig's $77k record, bent it over and raped it

It's only fair.

No they’ll replace Trebek with someone like Wanda Sykes. She will force the show to include a bunch of woke categories and that will be the downfall of James.

Destroyed how?

>hunts for the DDs
Why not just answer the questions right?

The future is now, old man.

So we're going to get unironic Black Jeopardy?

He'll just start playing for charity eventually once he hits 10 million.

There was.

>bankrupting the show
You're fucking retarded. Streak winners increase viewership which means more advertising revenue. Alex Trebek makes $38k per episode. That should give you an idea how of much this property makes for Sony. Jeopardy is probably one of the cheapest shows in the world to run: their production is all set in stone and they only have one star to pay. And the prizes are piss-low, especially for the difficulty of obtaining them.

rip Kenan Thompson's career

Because they have jobs and lives and not a lot of people can afford researching trivia for a living hoping to appear on the show

Yeah so they lose. Do you not understand competition? I don't have the time to spend all day training to be an olympic gold medalist, so I never will be. It's a competition not a fucking charity.

...and he won, I'm guessing from the thread title? how much? and by how much?

I'm confused, why can't they just give some impossible questions?

>"I'll take 'Things Nobody Knows' for $1000, Alex"

Because someone has to win and even if they put up insane questions his knowledge base means he's still probably going to be the most likely to come up with any number of correct answers.

Went into the final round with $70k and won around $130k. The other two contestants both won

ITT people are stupid enough to think that the show's producers want james to lose

jesus christ ahahahaha, did he break his own record?

>researching trivia
I don't understand this. Couldn't topics be about anything?

You have to deny James the opportunity to double his score.
Even if you don't bet huge you're still keeping the game closer than it would be otherwise

Yes

Does he remind anyone else of Gomer Pyle?

Wouldn’t their best outcome be to keep him on air until interest wanes then accuse him of cheating and never pay out the millions he’s amassed?

They probably do, game shows have a prize budget. You might think theyre getting increased ad revenue from a ratings spike, but ad packages don't work like that, they would have to sustain the increased ratings to ask for more money next quarter or next year.

Or you can just answer the questions correctly.

you honestly think they want a cheating scandal?

they should’ve practiced buzzing in with a toilet paper roll holder like based autist Matt Jackson.

This. There's probably a bidding war happening for a 20 second spot while he's on.

underrated

just because he is winning a lot doesn't mean that the show will suddenly run out of money
someone has to win every episode, so they lose money every episode
the extra 10k he might take home above the average jeopardy contestant is much less than the increased ratings and general renewed interest in jeopardy

Probably never. Everyone knows AI is better at this stuff. It would be pointless and boring.

literally who?

He's average winnings are way way higher than anyone else.
Him winning once is like other people winning 4 episodes.

>extra 10k
more like extra 70k

i know american dental care is expensive but will he finally be able to afford to fix that "smile"?

I forget the name, but there’s some classically known range of knowledge that the producers pull from to keep the questions hard enough to be intellectual, but not uninteresting to the average person

It's not fucking 10k dude, he's probably taking home $60,- 70,000 more than average per episode, and that's a conservative guess. My dad did the math and said they probably saved something like $500,000 by running the teacher's tournament in between James' episodes.

If you've watched more than a few games you'll notice the same questions and categories come up all the time.
Opera, geography (especially bodies of water), 18th century literature, US presidents etc etc

If it’s simulated to keep them in the limelight while they quietly slip him some of the winnings, yes.

Unironically how would they stop him?
Secret payment for him to "retire"?

you have a weird incorrect view of the world

I want to see Watson come back. It would finally prove whether J! is a gambling game or a knowledge game.

i meant bring him back to take out /ourguy/ james

losing all his money on a daily double that he gets wrong

Roger Craig has been found dead in his apartment. Police are saying suicide

Because even if only knows 1 answer on the entire board, it'll just mean the other two contestants will know 0 answers.

There are no hard or impossible questions. You either know the answer or you don't.

>this kernel has been in development for over 40 years, yet still does not have a 1.0 release

wow the game was over before the 1st commerical break...YEAH JAMES YEAH

How much of this is an exaggeration?

Well technically development for Hurd started in 1990, but Stallman started working on a kernel at least by the mid 80s. The latest release is 0.9

>Shakespeare
Lol that and opera are by far my worst

No, that was tonight.

>accuse him of cheating
If they accused someone of this and couldn't prove it, the accused could sue them for way more than they had won on the show, retard. How the fuck do you propose someone cheat at Jeopardy anyway?
