If the new champ goes on a long run we can say that the opponents that he defeated were Fochted.

At some point Ken should make a "Ken Jennings" reference about a superchamp the way that Alex did.

Re: Ken Jennings as a Host Poll
I voted for "Sorry, but I hope they find someone else." No offense to Ken, but the reason I don't want him as permanent host is because then, anyone who Ken played against would be ineligible to be invited to future Jeopardy! tournaments because of the 1950s quiz show scandals, and I don't want the...

Re: Jeopardy! Interim Host Thread
After seeing Ken host for two games I can say this: he brings a razor sharp mind and a quickness that the other host candidates cannot compete with. He's into and on top of the game the way that a good sports announcer is.

Re: OBIT: Alex Trebek
His passing is a rare occasion when millions of people who never literally met the man will feel genuine sorrow and reflect upon his class and courage. He performed at the highest level to the end, which is remarkable with the effects of his particular illness and its therapies. His interactions ...

Re: Friday, November 29, 2019 Game Recap and Discussion (SPOILERS)
For FJ I went with Frankenstein. Did anybody else go with this? I think it's not a bad guess, particularly if you thought of Young Frankenstein or Bride of Frankenstein , but I think those for whom the Hammer versions are the definitive Frankenstein adaptations would have remembered Castle Frankens...

I have to wonder what the level of difficulty of the answer/questions will be.
