For all you Ken Jennings fans out there!

I thought it was pretty funny.

But can he beat Sean Connery at Jeopardy?

I love everything about Jeopardy that I loved about it 20 years ago (watching it as a kid, keeping score for my dad)...except the stupid "Clue Crew."

Jeopardy doesn't need to get all fancy and 21st century. I think most of the people that watch it do so because they have fun testing their brains, not because they like some spiffy format.

Ken rocks, though.

Alright, show of hands. Who remembers watching Jeopardy! with the big board that had sliding cardboard signs, instead of little televisions?

LOL!

Love his sense of humor, and am looking forward to his book coming out in a couple months - Brainiac: Adventures in the Curious, Competitive, Compulsive World of Trivia Buffs

One thing is certain. Ken Jennings doesn't know humor from a hole in the ground. This guy sounds like the Cindy Sheehan of game show contestants. Ken, you won your money, now just go away.
