Trebek has always struck me as slightly conservative tho I would not bet on it.
I have a friend who is very liberal and he likes Jeopardy. In fact he has tried out for it several times. He pointed out something to me which I had not noticed but since then it is clear that he is right.
He said they like to put two (or three) women on together when there is a woman contestant. Often there will be 3 men but seldom two men and one woman.
Watched the show for the first time in AGES last night while waiting at the OKC airport. Turns out it’s Teen Week - and last evening someone from my son’s high school was one of the contestants.
Anyway - two guys and a gal!
