    Not quite as bad as when contestants completely whiff on a sports question. Still ...

    "OK, contestants. We'll take a commercial break now as you pull your heads out of Uranus."

    They were probably stumped by, "Newspaper? What's that?"

    Amy Schneider, the first openly transgender contestant on "Jeopardy!" has been impressive, having won 20 games so far.

    Her stint was interrupted by a Tournament of Champions for college professors, but she's been at it again this week and is rolling right along.

    Last night, she did something I don't think I've ever seen anyone do: She bet $0 on the Final-Jeopardy question (which she answered correctly).

    She has done especially well in Final-Jeopardy rounds, answering incorrectly only once, I think, so that bet was surprising. The other contestants weren't so close that she needed to be that safe/cautious about her betting, so I guess she just wasn't that confident about the topic.

    I wasn’t watching when Holzhauer went on his run, but she is absolutely tearing it up.

    Agree. This has been a fun ride. She's impressive.

    Again, let's change the thread title. We've killed Trebek more times than Fake Sean Connery.
