She lost today, so you won’the have to listen to her strange cadence anymore.
That Matt Jackson was a weirdo, but I liked him precisely because he did interrupt that pompous jack wagon Trebec. That jerk wastes the contestants’ time by adding on unnecessary information about the clue after a correct answer has been given. All the while trying to act like he knows so much.
The guy who beat Jackson seems like a nice fellow.
I loathe Trebec.
Matt Jackson had the intensity of a high level quizbowl player (which he was). I like contestants that play fast since it increases the odds of clearing the board. The worst contestants are the “...ummmm... I’ll have *insert full category name* for 200, please.”
Couldn’t stand her voice. Last night, my husband said ‘if she wins,I’m not sure I want to watch tomorrow’. Glad she lost (and we did watch). Really liked the guy that won the Tournament of Champions. He always acted like he didn’t know the answer.....and then would be correct at the last minute. Didn’t enjoy Matt Jackson with his creepy growing smile, sort of like a creepy clown. Overall, we really enjoy Jeopardy; DVR it and watch every day.
You know, I bet that that is all scripted for him, i.e., that the producers require him to add the extra info, because they think that it makes the show more entertaining. I'm sure that, given the choice, he'd actually rather forego the chit-chat, wrap up each show 10 minutes earlier, and go home to his cocker spaniel.
And the I.Q. of people named "Alex" is, on the average, one Standard Deviation higher than the national mean. :-)
