I'll just come out with it, Jeopardy must be the worst game show knowledge game in existance. Ok now...if any of you watch this show and absolutely love it with all your heart....you might want to hurt yourself a little bit. If you don't know Jeopardy is a game show which people ask for a category such as...I don't know, "Cats" and then you ask for 200 dollars maybe.
An answer is read, and you have to give the answer to that answer in the form of a question, like "What is hairball?" The concept is simple, but there's just one thing that makes me hate this show, and that is nobody knows the answers. I am not kidding, you can't not study for this thing and just happen to know at least 3 of the questions off your head. I can never do it, ever...Bottom line, this show makes me feel like a moron. Some of the catergories have words in them I've never heard of...or...at least words I'd never use in normal conversation. And then there's the contestants...And I found there to be about 3 main people to play the game, first is the guy that knows all the answers, the smart guy, second is the guy that can answer the questions faster than the smart guy, then there's the guy that has no idea why he's there, but he's able to guess half his answers correctly. Alex Trebek is the host, and he's probably not a bad guy...but if you watch maybe 3 shows back to back...you'll fall asleep, his voice sounds like he's a weather man almost, it's the same null voice, with no changes or varitety to it...I mean come on Trebek, at least pretend your happy to be there! Now for the questions, some of them you may know, but others...well here's one for example: Clue: Name of the hotel and office complex where the Watergate break-in occurred .......any ideas? ......................
Response: What is Watergate? Ok here's another one
Ok the way the guy answered was funny...but did you know the answer? No? Well of course you don't know the answer!! No average joe knows the answers! Gee wiz man, all these questions will blow a fuse in your brain, not only are they question no average person would know, but they ask nearly 100 of them in one show, it makes me sick that I can't answer even half of them. The players thing works kinda strangely to me, apparently the winner of the game can come back the next show, and as long as he wins...he can still keep coming back, but if he loses, then he's off the show, so even if he comes in second place, he leaves and someone else replaces him the next show.... Take a look at this:
Not only did this guy get the highest score in a single show...he's won 1 Million dollars....and has played the game 38 days in a row......what the crap? You think at some point they'd say "Thanks for playing, but we're going broke so your off the show now." And hey, you think this has never happened?
So...who's the winner?
Oh and one last thing
I have to hand it to this guy, that was awesome. Back to the other dimension with you Trebek! I wish I could like this show, but please give me questions I could know like history, Shakespear, not stuff like "What were George Washington's last words." That's triva garbage. |
