Holtzhower and Imodia lost in the same manner as Amy: listless, relatively easy game but out of character, they just didn't seem to really care.

I couldn't believe Amy missed that FJ. Was one of the easiest final jeopardy clues I can remember in a while. I've asked about half a dozen friends the clue tonight and each of them got it nearly instantly.

Well what was the answer (question)?

If I remember right, a former contestant posted on this board once, some time ago. Won one or two episodes and talked about how mentally exhausting competing on the show was.

Bangladesh.

Did anyone see the lady on Monday going for her 5th win (and a spot in the ToC) completely throw it based on her wager in Final Jeopardy? Pretty stupid. Only thing I could think of is that she didn't want to be obligated to go to the ToC?

Just get somebody new and stop relying on existing celebrities…

…what?

I'm ready for this current chick to lose.

Well, Canadian Mattea Roach finally lost. She had a good run, but I believe she will be beaten in the TOC by Matt and Amy pretty easily.

I've tried to power through, but Miyam Bialik is ruining this show for me. It has gone from a rarely miss to rarely watch. I didn't think the host would make much difference, but somehow it is

Ken Jennings is coming back at some point, right? He's better thank Bialik.

He's back Monday per the episode I finished half an hour ago.

TOC has been great so far. Anyone watching? Sam Buttry is pretty killer, but so is Andrew. both are beating Amy to the buzzer pretty regularly.

Andrew has good wagering instincts.

We've enjoyed it so far. The semifinals were good.

Edit to add "far"

Sooo…. Controversial final Jeopardy last night.

It is apparently very well documented that the author of Hebrews is disputed/unknown. This would make the correct answer Romans, giving Sam the win.

please fire ken Jennings next.

they are both mediocre.

IMO both are adequate hosts but prefer Jennings. I agree that it is probably best to go forward with a single host rather than sharing the duties.

Ken is better for sure but I guarantee they could find someone better than him.

I rarely watch the show so it doesn't really matter to me.

I typically don't care about who the host is, but Bialik was just so bad for a question and answer game. Contestants would answer and there'd be a long pause before she'd actually say if they were correct or not.

How am I supposed to feel smart if she has me questioning every answer I give?

That and she would always get overly-excited when a contestant found a Daily Double, like they weren't a part of every single game.
