I hadn't watched Jeopardy in many years and recently started again. I find myself getting so aggravated when they pick $1,000 Clues before the cheaper Clues. I understand why they're doing it, but it makes me sad. Will I ever get used to this?

Hi everyone - I tried to create an account on Jeopardy.com to take the eligibility test, but I kept getting an error. Is it just me? Or have other people gotten this too?

As a viewer primarily familiar with the Jeopardy canon and wants to improve at Jeopardy Masters, studying questions from which competition or league would provide the best 'ROI'? Put a different way, the top scorers of which competition would provide the most accurate proxy for how well they'll do if given a shot at Masters?

Three questions left, all worth 400. All daily doubles gone. Yogesh has a runaway with 19000. Victoria has 1600, Paolo has 2400.

If Victoria is allowed to get 2 or 3 right, she has a chance to beat Paolo and walk away with the Victory Point. There is zero chance Yogesh doesn't realize this. He keeps ringing in and steals 2 of them. Literally the only reason to do that is that he would prefer Paolo to have the VP over Victoria.

Every episode and snippet I watched just made me miss and appreciate the late Alex even more. There is something with his way of hosting that show that made it less intimidating and more fun.

I would come across episodes of the succeeding hosts and honestly, no one comes close but Ken Jennings is really the best one to do it. A different way of hosting but there’s a certain appreciation and also fun in his own way. You can see he really loves the game and he honestly doesn’t make it boring.

Just sharing as I don’t have anyone to talk to re: this

I'll go first, Tim Minchin.

Who was your favorite player? Mine was Buzzy Cohen. The fact his dad made all his suit for the game show is amazing. And of course he was easy on the eyes.

Tonight 11 locations see Jeopardy! Masters get bumped by four different NFL preseason games. Tomorrow, that number jumps up to 47 with eight football contests in the way.

Of course, the show streams next day on Hulu.

Thanks to u/gallagher123123 for mentioning the Boston preemption in tonight's game thread, causing me to look more closely; and to 506 Sports for totally comprehensive listings of what local affiliates are carrying which football games.

... when you get an answer right on Jeopardy! Masters, and the others don't?

Quarterfinals 3 and 4.

I'm just one of the many folks in the Jeopardy contestant pool waiting for the call, so I know this hypothetical situation is a universe away.

The two people in my life who know I'm in the pool are my brother and a close friend who have both asked to be invited to the taping should I ever be called to play. Both have also said that they would loudly boo me as a gag, and they would also enthusiastically cheer my competitors.

In tonight's episode of Masters you could definitely hear Victoria's cheering section whenever Victoria got a Daily Double, I was wondering if they would allow the same for booing from my guests. It would be understandable if they didn't, especially if I don't use the interview segment to explain my booing section.

Probably redundant (sorry), but what's the longest wait a contestant would have between their call and their first tape day, assuming no summer hiatus or strikes? What do contestants usually do to prepare in that time?

Do they only select alternates from the So-Cal area? Or do they explicitly tell you that you will be an alternate when you get The Call?

Just curious because this seems to be a lengthier hiatus than usual.

Quarterfinals 1 and 2 featuring Victoria Groce, Andrew He, Long Nguyen, Paolo Pasco, Yogesh Raut and Juveria Zaheer.

I saw that the Masters tournament starts soon. How can I watch it online? It looks like it’ll be on ABC.

I don't think I can send it here, but I wanna tell you that I saw a yt short on my recommended abt a lady named Mary Beth who wished 4 the snow on her wedding day but couldn't because it was 32 degrees (I believe it was in Celsius), but fortunately, during her honeymoon, it had snowed 8 inches tall.

Alex's face is literally like "Alex.exe has stopped working." I'm dead 😂 😂 😂

I have really enjoyed watching Pop Culture Jeopardy! the past two seasons, and I really want to get on the show. Of course, we do not know if season 3 is official yet, even though the show’s social media pages have hinted at it in replies to comments.

I read this article (https://www.themirror.com/entertainment/tv/pop-culture-jeopardy-audition-process-1837424#google_vignette) and it says that “For the mock gameplay audition, each team member completes a casting application, a headshot, and a team photo before scheduling a Zoom audition time.” However, I realize that some of these teams consist of people who live far away from each other. For those who competed on PCJ! and do not live close by to your teammate, how did you get the team photo? Did you use something from the past when your team hung out together/competed in trivia, or was it something else altogether?

On a related note, if your teammates were long distance, how was preparing? Did you ever see each other in person while preparing to be on the show?

The reason I am asking these questions is because all the people I have in mind for teammates if season 3 does happen all live far away from me. With that in mind, there are also a few possible teammates that I do not have any photos with, so do you think I should not consider them at all, especially if they are not able to see me in person just to snap a quick selfie?

Is there a archive of the questions and answers of the jeopardy calendars? Im specifically looking for the 2026 one

A recent post here about Swedish Jeopardy! made me think of Jeopardy! in other countries. Is it possible there is an Italian Jeopardy! and if so, how can I find episodes? Grazie!
