jeopardy is so stupid - the daily doubles and final question take nearly all the skill out of it and replace it with luck

that being said, ken jennings winning a million weeks in a row shows utter dominance

none taken

i'm just saying that you could have someone get 80% of the questions right, and someone could get 10% and, with the daily doubles/final question on their side, could beat the much more intelligent/dominant competitor

that's not even taking into consideration the timing aspect of the buzzer that the contestants have to manipulate

i just think the correlation between intelligence and jeopardy is highly overrated

I don't think he has ever lost on the show. His original appearance was when they still had the five-day cap. So who is the man?

Rutter 18-0
Jennings 78-2

*records estimated
