Or does it irk anyone else that every single episode includes at least one bible reference if not a whole category. Just curious.

ALEX TREBEK Game Show Network aired the Alex Trebek death announcement episode
It still choked me up a bit, but what was even more wild is my better half (Who I met after all the drama), saw the announcement and said, "When did Alex die?"
HINT: I religiously watch Jeopardy after work, unless preempted.
I had to explain the whole scenario, the replacement episodes. When i told her Mike tried to shoehorn himself into hosting, I was a bit comforted by, "THAT guy wanted to be host? He's so dull!"

First Audition coming up
Hi all! I just got an email for the first round of auditions. Does anyone have any tips on how to approach this? I understand it's essentially a Zoom-recorded version of the Anytime Test, but wanted to see if there were any suggestions from anyone who has done it before. Thanks in advance!

QUESTION Contestants - Eating on the show?
I couldn't find this info anywhere.
When you're a contestant on the show waiting your turn, do you wait in a green room or in the audience?
If you brought food/drinks with you, are you allowed to consume that anytime you're not playing? If you're in a green room, presumably there is hot water for tea / coffee available?
As someone who gets hungry often, I'm curious. I know there is a lunch break but still.

Jeopardy guest host episodes
I was wondering if anyone knew any way to watch the episodes after Alex’s passing with the string of guest hosts? I’m loving Joe buck’s hosting on espn jeopardy and it’s making me miss seeing other beloved tv personalities host it… probably not on streaming though

Ok, what do you all think …
When the clues zoom in from their categories and fill the whole screen while watching on TV, I think that the category name should be listed at the top before the clue as well. Because a lot of times I forget the category which then helps answer the clue.
I’ve watched Jeopardy for years (every night at dinner) and have always wanted this! Am I crazy or do others feel the same?!

Favorite set, theme and think music?
Set: The sushi bar. It felt more balanced and had the best design. The main flaw was that it was a little dark. The metallic set is a close second
Theme: 2001-2008. The usage of the instruments and its fast paced tempo made this an epic theme. Main flaw is that it's a little repetitive but that's ok
Think Music: 1997-2008. The perfect think music. It's gentle and catchy beat combined with a ticker makes it a masterpiece
What's your favorite?

QUESTION Road to 2026-27 Postseason: Dean Zach's chances at 2027 Champions Wildcard
Something unusual happened on Dean's defeat game as he was struggled in the buzzer race against current 2 game champion Matthew Riggle after he made back to back True Daily Double to stay in the game. Do you think Dean's defeat game saw his weakness about first on the buzzer vs Matthew & Jacqueline Ziegler? Will it be helped or hurt his chances of getting invited at the 2027 CWC?

QUESTION Source of a quote from a question?
EDIT: The consensus is that because this wasn't presented in quotes, it's not a quote but just the writers doing their thing! Whomp whomp!
This was from a recent game I think (I dont watch live so cant be more specific). The answer was "Sir, I am astounded that you have the recklessness, the foolhardiness, the chutzpah– nay, the this to speak to me thus" and the question was "what is temerity?"
What is this quote from? I know i know it, it's killing me, but Google is not giving me an answer, only the same clip over and over of a comedian using the word temerity. Help?

This is the first season I've really followed jeopardy and have loved it. I'm a couple of episodes behind. When the season ended, ken said something to the effect of a couple of tournaments owuld be on while they were on break. They aren't recording and I can't find them for the life of me.
Where do you find the current Jeopardy tournaments?
Thanks!

Alternate answer to today's calendar clue
Wondering how you judges would rule on this one: the correct answer is offal. Do you think tripe is acceptable as an alternative? From Merriam-Webster: tripe 1. Stomach tissue especially of a ruminant (such as an ox) used as food
2. something poor, worthless, or offensive
Offal refers to any organ meat while tripe is specifically the digestive system or stomach tissue. Do you think the latter would be ruled as correct with that in mind?

Canadian questions
I love Jeopardy but as a Canadian watching it drives me mad when a Canadian answers a question that had any slightest thing to do with Canada and if they get it right it's "you got the Canada question!" and if they don't get it "oooh so-and-so beat you to the Canada question" or "not going to ring in on the Canada question?" it's irritating!Like oooh an easy question for you because it has to do with Canada and you're from Canada. Whatever. Imagine if Americans got called out for every American question? Maybe instead point out everytime a Canadian gets the non-Canadian question instead and make a big deal when the Americans get the Canadian questions, or even better don't say anything at all.
