Is anyone else watching the Jeopardy All Star Games? I hope Team Buzzy wins kicks Austins ass, the obnoxious little twerp! The rules are as clear as mud though. I noticed no Daily Doubles, at least in round 1; we'll see how it plays out over the 2 weeks!
Yes, too many "life stories". Just play already! Alex should say something like, "If you want to catch up on what our champions have been up to for the last few years, go on-line at Jeopardy whatever.com and read all about them.
I always enjoy seeing the old champions again. Some of my favorites are Buzzy, Brad and Austin. But i always root the most for Ken Jennings. He's my all time favorite.
Yes, Ken is the best player, even in this group. But my favorite player is Alex Jacob, because he always takes the biggest gambles! I think next week is going to be high pressure because they are playing for the million. And each team member knows it's up to him to win or lose for all three!
That's my main objection on all versions of "Jeopardy!". If they'd eliminate the boring personal stories segment after Round 1, there would be room for a fourth round. Especially since the show ends at about 7:22 anyway and they stand around for several minutes while the music plays.
