Title: "This is... JEOPARDY!"
Post by: Mr. Hankey on Jan 01, 2006 at 02:03 PM
Woo hoo!!!

My favorite game show of all-time is back on local screens!

Jeopardy! is on ETC 2nd Avenue. Weekdays at 9:30PM and 1:30AM, Sundays at 4:30PM.

Or something like that... the printed schedule in Guide Magazine is a bit confusing.

I hope they show the Ken Jennings winning streak. Buying the recently released Jeopardy! DVD was disappointing. We all know Ken Jennings was the best player of all-time, but from the shows they featured on the disc were his regular run defeat, and his defeat in the two-part "Ultimate Tournament of Champions." Doesn't exactly give you an accurate picture of how well he played the game.

i average 2 correct answers per episode, 1 on each round. final question kanina is about numbers:
"how do you like your drink, alcoholic of course" or sumthin like that. it's used daw to memorize this number..

answer nung winner (about 45-50 y/o male against 2 younger women) is Pi. And hes correct! come from behind victory talaga, sayang yung isang babae leading na sya, taas lang ng wager nya kaya sha natalo eh

The good news is this is the current season of Jeopardy!. Today's episode aired in September in the States.

The bad news is they're not airing the episodes in order, or at the very least, they missed one episode - we did not see David Madden's defeat after his long (2 season-spanning) winning streak.

Sana mali lang ng isa...

Medyo annoying yung current champion although i have to admire the way he always seems to know where the daily double is. :)

It's about time!  A game show that is both fun and where you could learn something.

Last time I saw this was in the local channels back in the early 90s.  This show humbled me pretty good.  I thought I knew a lot, turns out I know almost nil.  But for a teenager then, I'm actually surprised it was interesting.  Then it was gone.  I've always wondered why nobody is interested to air it again.  Market demand maybe.

Well somebody from Solar obviously found it.   Cheers to them and hope they keep it!

The current champion is quite impressive. Commanding leads in both games so far before Final Jeopardy. And he seems friendlier than that first long-runner (David Madden) they showed locally.

buti naman me mga taga pinoydvd.com rin pala na mahilig sa mga quiz shows na tulad ko.
i was also very happy na lumabas uli ang jeopardy.. it's my favorite show of all time..
actually,nag try sila na magkaroon ng local version nito pero sa subic lang sila naghanap ng mga contrestants kaya nag fizzle out..

i also compete professionally on tv, kaya kung nanonood kayo ng mga local quiz shows since time immemorial,very familiar face ako sa mga game shows sa local tv. i started out on student canteen and up to this time hanggang sa internet naglalaro ako, sa funtrivia.com sa global quiz challenge nila ..

Ang problem lang is half the topics are about american history or politics/geography kaya lugi tayo. But I, ehem, average 25 answers per show (roughly half).  Kainis lang katapat ng Letterman.

Talo kita! I got 41/60 (one clue wasn't read) today!

But then, it's "Back to School" Week, and the contestants are 10-12 year olds.  ;D

I'd say I also get a little less than half during a regular show, though.  :)

I tend to miss some episodes. Good thing I found this link (http://www.j-archive.com/). The bad thing is you'd know how the rest of the season turns out. We are getting past broadcasts.

I'm not liking the new schedule of Jeopardy! on 2nd Avenue for 2007. Starting next week, it airs at 6:30PM with a rerun at 1:30AM.  :-[

Caught the episode with the Pinay contestant (http://inrandommode.blogspot.com/2006/09/pinay-in-jeopardy.html) a while back.

FYI, the new season of Jeopardy! finally started on 2nd Avenue, apparently last week.

Good news for Jeopardy! fans... very good news for those with Destiny Cable.  ;D

I'd like to think I had matured enough not to laugh at something like this Jeopardy! contestant's name, and was able to accept Alex calling him over and over during the first round of play without even a smirk. But by the time Double Jeopardy started and Alex said, "Titi was up and down, and then was coming up again at the end of the first round... let's see what happens now in Double Jeopardy!", I just completely lost it.

Nowhere legally anymore, unfortunately.
