Alex Trebek/Jeopardy Tribute Thread

They’ve had a run of weird folk as champs. This guy’s face is pretty punchable.

 

Glad he lost.

 

'Jeopardy!' Fans Call Jake DeArruda 'Most Annoying Contestant Ever'

 

My mom despised that guy.

 

He was smart but not super smart — lots of gettable questions he didn’t know and he missed his last 3 FJs, each of which I knew. The quirks which he had seemed more deliberately annoying than anything.

There was that whole controversy about Yogesh a couple of weeks back. I thought he was going to be a long time champ but he couldn’t seem to figure out the buzzer. After he lost, he went off on social media about how smart he was and that people didn’t like him because he isn’t white. Odd stuff.

 

Yeah, Yogesh was another piece of work.

 

Time to bring back some sort of limit. I think 10 games is reasonable — it builds up some buzz for each contestant on a run. Perhaps 15.
