Big thanks to @Jeopardy for letting me talk about School of Trivia tonight! Season 27 starts on Monday so it's a great time to join. Hope to see you there! I'll put the sign-up link below for anyone interested ❤️
20-year anniversary of the craziest gold medal you will ever see.
Aussie skater was outclassed by the quarterfinals but advanced when one of the top 2 was penalized. In the semis, everyone but him and one other crashed and he found himself in the finals. And then this happened:
Final game of the Ultimate Tournament of Champions. Brad vs. all-time great Jerome Vered vs. Ken, fresh off the streak. This was supposed to be Ken's coronation, but Brad had other plans. He crushed them. I don't care how #JeopardyGOAT ends up, put some respect on this man's name
Now I'm wondering if she had just stretched out the word "riiiiiiiiiight," would that have counted as a continuous answer? I understand rules are rules but this seems like a particularly dumb rule. C'mon Wheel, it's Christmas.
Just to be clear, no disrespect intended when I say he was outclassed. I just meant that in a clean race, he probably wasn't beating these elite skaters. Which is why his strategy of hanging in back and hoping for chaos was so brilliant.
"But the returning #Jeopardy champion has more practice on the buzzer! That's an unfair advantage! Waaa!"
It's not an unfair advantage, it's an earned one. This is literally how the show works. Did you just start watching?
I just want to stick up for the #Jeopardy alumni community here. As far as I know, there's only one person "speaking out," and he's just trying to get attention so more people might subscribe to his newsletter and buy his books. He doesn't speak for us.
Fuck. That was my grandfather’s diagnosis and he didn’t live long (love you Papa). Maybe Alex will be luckier. We chatted briefly at the wrap party and he was so nice about my missed daily double, almost like he genuinely felt bad about it. I hope I remembered to thank him.
So this week could end up being my last time on the world's greatest game show. Don't get me wrong, I hope to be back, but there are a lot of mouths to feed and I don't take anything for granted. Either way, thanks @Jeopardy for the chance and thank you guys for all the love. ❤️
In honor of Joe Pesci getting his first Oscar nomination since he won nearly 30 years ago, I present to you the greatest acceptance speech in Academy history
“Back in my day we never went to the bottom row first and we NEVER concentrated, certainly not silently. Also, for some reason we’d let the third-place player score sometimes. But the game ain’t what it used to be.”
With the potential Matt vs. Amy showdown and fun rematch possibilities like Matt vs. Jonathan, Amy vs. Andrew, and Brian vs. Zach, the next @Jeopardy Tournament of Champions should really air on @ABCNetwork in primetime
I don't know who needs to hear this, but you did your best on Jeopardy and you should be proud of yourself. In 2022, try to let that shit go.
Fuck, it's me. I need to hear this.
GUYS. I’m gonna be on #JeopardyAllStarGames!
So honored to be part of this unique moment in @Jeopardy history with this elite group of champions!
I can’t thank you all enough for your awesome support, which I have no doubt helped make this happen. 🙏🙏🙏
"Hey, listen. I put it all on the line. That's true. And you know what? It wasn't a bad beat. I wasn't unlucky. I got outplayed. I got outplayed that time. But I know I'm good enough to sit at that table." --Mike McDermott
#JeopardyAllStars
Going all Zapruder on this thing now, if you watch Vanna at the moment the contestant gets it her face changes into a smile and she starts to clap before stopping herself. Definitely looks like she thought it was a legit solve in the moment.
To be clear, I don't take issue with rooting against a #Jeopardy player for literally any reason. But I do want to say when you're up there, you don't have time to worry about what your face looks like, how your voice sounds, or your body language. The game takes all your focus.
We opened today's show with a special message about last year's Teachers Tournament champion, Larry Martin. The donation will be going to the Fred Rogers Center. 💜 #TournamentOfChampions
Let's not let tonight's #JeopardyCollegeChampionship discourse be dominated by negativity -- can we talk about how this is one of the all time great intros?
It's so impressive to me that in the midst of this shitstorm, @RobbiJadeLew just cashed in a $10,000 buy-in tournament filled with some of the best players in the world. Last woman standing in the event. If you are still saying this person is a cheater, it's time to reevaluate.
Hey buddy, people finish with scores like that every other night, Amy or no Amy. Did you just start watching the show again because you wrote a piece that everyone hated?
I can now confirm the date... I'll be playing in the #Jeopardy Invitational Tournament (JIT) on:
Wednesday, March 27
Thanks so much to @Jeopardy for the great honor of being included in this illustrious field of champions!!
I don’t know what game show producer needs to hear this but if you’re looking to piggyback off the success of #JeopardyGOAT I’m available and will answer trivia questions for cheap 🤓
🚨🚨 #JEOPARDY HISTORY ALERT
I have it on good authority (h/t @_thejeopardyfan) that @gg_andrewhe may be the first person to successfully wager the maximum on all 3 Daily Doubles in one game.
Not just in the ToC, in ANY JEOPARDY EPISODE.
@Jeopardy Can you confirm?
Well now that these long streaks on Jeopardy are a dime a dozen I think we can all agree that the more important thing is your performance in the TOC, am I right folks?? Folks???
Not to speak for anyone but I think it's been a tough couple of years for all of us and I hope whether you're celebrating or not that you have a good day today. ❤️
anti-masker watching me walk from the parking lot to the store wearing a mask: Look at this beta soy boy. Did Dr. Fraudci tell you to do that, you absolute cuck? Virtue signal much? Just completely living in fear. Couldn't be me.
me: Fuck it's cold out this mask feels amazing

1) It seems unlikely that a 73-year-old who’s had contact with 2 positive cases wouldn’t want to be tested, and that his MD would advise against it
2) If he tested negative, I would think he’d want to tell us that
3) From 1) and 2) it seems probable that Trump has the virus
Wow, a recent viral YouTube video about @Jeopardy is incredibly poorly researched.
James can be beaten. In the TOC, he was a missed FJ away from losing again.
The premise that NBC (lol!) rigged it to make him lose is offensive. Emma is an excellent player and earned that win.
I don't get many things right the first time
In fact, I am told that a lot
Now I know all the wrong turns, the stumbles and falls
Brought me here
And where was I before the day
That I first saw your lovely face
Now I see it every day
And I know
That I am, I am, I am, the luckiest
#TeamBuzzy, I've said this to you but I want everyone to know: I am so proud of us. We were hungry and prepped hard. You had me believing that we would win this. On the day, you played beautifully. It was my job to get us there with the big daily double and I'm sorry I couldn't.
I’m obviously not a doctor, but it seems to me that they should have taken him to Walter Reed this morning, but they wanted to wait until the market closed.
CNN reporting that President began to panic over night as symptoms began to set in. "We are told he became increasingly alarmed by his diagnosis and as he developed symptoms over night." (You probably would too. It's a scary situation.)
We now have audio proving that Trump knew how deadly COVID was back on February 7. He gambled that it wouldn’t be a big deal and he lost. Thousands are now dead because of his failure. Even if he had been a great man and a perfect president, this should be enough to vote him out.
It’s infuriating to me that Jenny McCarthy, maybe the most famous anti-vaxer of all time, is allowed to star on a hit network show during a global pandemic. #TheMaskedSinger
Just saying, if a left-winger killed a far-right group member and claimed self-defense, Trump would have called him a thug and a cold-blooded killer, and he'd have been killed by cops with no bodycams. I know this because it happened and his name was Michael Reinoehl.
