Jeopardy - 1/11/2005 - part 3

[solvrn]

That's what happens when you get cocky and wager everything

[ddog892]

Yaaayyyyyy! I got it right!!

[jamiewood99]

I looooove it!!!!!...lol

[Chumandoo3]

She did not impress. One of the other 2 contestants clearly has more skill than her.

[watermelonygoodness]

That was a really hard final Jeopardy question!

[JMUHockeyGirl]

I think the college student was the smartest of the three.

[natmax1]

I guessed Richard III because I am studying the text in english

[friskie1986]

Congratulations, Jonathan. You have lots to be proud of after a performance like that!

[tzone92]

I guessed 1066, Because it was on Christmas Day when William the Conquerer was throned, so there could have easily been a recent crowning the same year, also due to the political instability that William the Conquerer took advantage of.

[nickfvideoaddict]

eh, answered $6900 worth of questions right.

not bad for 16 I guess. I am a jeopardy addict lol

[EffAche]

holy shit I got this right with the 1936 answer

[Hawkwing4556]

Josh Allen should have reversed his wager to remain champ. xD

[Hawkwing4556]

Alex should have wagered $12,001. T_T

[Hawkwing4556]

How?

[csifan18]

At this time, the closing theme for Jeopardy! sounded real awkward without the saxophone added in...

[Surf951]

I disagree. The solo saxophone and guitar riffs fall flat on their ass, and are shining examples of improvisation that lack in technical ability and musical taste. It made an already bad orchestration ugly; one that is cheesy, unoriginal, and sounds like pep music for a 1980s aerobics class decked out in spandex.

The set leaves a lot to be desired too, with its shitty dead tech post-modernistic motif. So, both the theme song and the set has been a new low for Jeopardy in my book.

[MetalDetektor00]

You're a lot less smarter than you try to be.

You got the dead tech post-modernistic description from the movie Heat.

[Surf951]

Yeap! I sure did! Its a great quote and fits well to describe the Jeopardy set. Just remember the words that jump off your keyboard putting people down will come back on you someday. Good luck to you my friend.

[Jamee999]

I got Final Jeopardy :D 1066!

[damienmetalwind]

Me too--total guess. I figured the Norman invasion of England would ruin the power structure.

[duffrageous]

1066

[duffrageous]

thanks for uploading this. i think this is the only full episode up here, surprisingly. i thought alex would lose because she didn't wager enough in the daily double.

[cominternprc]

That last question was so easy, and I'm not even British! I mean, think about it: if you know anything about British HIstory, what is pretty much the only famous year you can think of? Had to be 1066.

[x4812k]

wow that's a really good game-- all the contestants were very smart and knowledgeable!!

It was so funny when the woman SWEPT up all the guitarist questions, because you look at her with the typical "soccer mom" look, and she has this crazy rock knowledge!

[WebNutritionist]

@x4812k She is a woman after all!  Woman know guitarists :).

[downding]

Wow, that was a killer final jeopardy question! Good try on your part though. Damn it, I'm a huge history buff and guessed 1937 instead. I swore that Edward lost his thone not long before before wwii but of well.. Very solid showing though. Congrats.

[TheBelle007]

You were awesome =) oh and I would've wagered a lot on that too, I thought I knew enough of English Royalty but that was a tough one!

[ohmypooremoheart]

You did great (if you really are that guy :)). Thanks for the upload.

[Lloyds1123]

That's amazing i luv jeapordy and the theme song!

[misantrophejr]

Awesome.

[zombiema7]

Nice job though, you were close. At least you weren't cocky like that other guy and bet everything on a completely wrong answer.

[char615]

If I were on Jeopardy (which I did audition), I'd wager most, if not everything. How many times do you find yourself on Jeopardy?

[D6D24R94]

i think u can actually only play once

[char615]

Exactly---- that's my point. I'd wager everything because I'd only be on Jeopardy once.

[ballsabouncing]

That's not always the best strategy.

[rainpaw4]

@char615 exactly why you don't wager everything.... everyone else wages everything so if everyone gets it wrong, you win

[jasperjava]

They put down their wagers before the question is read. He thought he knew about English Royalty, but that was a tough question.

[D6D24R94]

well he already won 2 games in a row so at least he won something

[zombiema7]

PWNED!!!

[JAAMMMMEES]

that music is fantastic

[thetimewarp3000]

that was an unexpected ending.

[pitchman3]

You did great on that game. good job.
