Celebrity Jeopardy?

Does anyone know any more about this? Apparently it's not a joke. Kelly Miyahara tweeted cryptically about it too.

As a contestant guest I brought in my camera to the studio when I attended the Battle taping last year. The guards saw it when I put in on the table before going through the metal detector. I think the J! people were more concerned by the notepad and pen I had than the camera.ihavejeoprosy wrote:
Cameras aren't allowed in the studio, so im pretty mad that the girl got to take those pics.
yeah, screw charity, they don't need the money/publicity...Bamaman wrote:Oh great. A whole week of celebrities on Jeopardy while 10 deserving people get left out.
I agree. I'm a little intrigued to see how someone contemporary like Aaron Rodgers would do.triviawayne wrote:yeah, screw charity, they don't need the money/publicity...Bamaman wrote:Oh great. A whole week of celebrities on Jeopardy while 10 deserving people get left out.
I like the celebrity week, as long as they don't stoop to putting on a Kardashian or something like that, it's one week out of the year.
I'm fairly certain I've seen quotes in the past that Rodgers is a regular Jeopardy viewer. I like to pretend that a QB was rooting for me for once.ihavejeoprosy wrote:I agree.

You saw a list of contestants? That's what I'm after.MarkBarrett wrote:Who to root for? That quarterback of that Green Bay team or Mr. Wonderful? I'm wearing a shirt with sharks on it when I watch that game. Hope Kevin gets off at least one, "You're dead to me" to Alex Trebek. Hope #12 has no occasion to use his "championship belt" move.
The guy who favorited the tweet works for the show (which is why I follow him). The girl who tweeted it has the same last name, so I assume she has a connection to him.ihavejeoprosy wrote: Cameras aren't allowed in the studio, so im pretty mad that the girl got to take those pics.
Guess what? Her tweet's been deleted since TPTB may have let her know what she did wasn't allowed.thejeopardyfan wrote:The guy who favorited the tweet works for the show (which is why I follow him).

There have been a number of good celebrity players and even a few excellent ones. It is unfortunate that Celebrity Jeopardy replaces a week of qualified regular people, but I do not find the games themselves offensive to watch.Bamaman wrote:Yes, being anti-moronic celebrities I've never heard of acting like idiots on the show means I hate charities. I do know who Aaron Rodgers is but I really don't give a shit how he would do on the show.
I think for each TOC they should have every player designate a charity. Jeopardy! would then make a donation to that charity in each players' name based on how much they won.
