Grand Slam - Ken Jennings vs. Phyllis Harris - Round 1

[missingnote]

Miller is as unfunny as ever, but damn Phyllis, you've got at least a little credit to your name. It's not much, but it's better than Amy Kelly.

[KaratekaII]

Ken should have been perfect, as the two questions he missed were not difficult....Phyllis, however, was just awful, and she knew it.

[terrorsquadlith]

men are smarter then women.. heres the proof

[Kalianyia]

At the end the host says that photosynthesis takes in sunlight and mexican food... wtf???

[factoreight]

The one thing that is more shabby than Phyllis' performance is her sportsmanship.

[MDFromNC13]

Phyllis is so fucking stupid. LMFAO.

[favideo7]

@MDFromNC13 well actually, these are the BIGGEST winners from other game game show involving knowledge -___-...

[MDFromNC13]

@favideo7 Well I am saying that she didn't look like it....

Were both contestants American?

Because Americans are hit with lots of Muslim propaganda. All Muslims are evil. Muslims live in Iraq. We must attack Iraq for the better of the entire world. Or our country's coffers.

[ilylac]

oh god, that iraq answer was so bad. i hope she'd at least be able to tell me where bethlehem is.

[KhannKlan]

"Worst ever."

She seemed very satisfied with herself.

[downletters]

what a joke. this is what happens when women try to compete with men intellectually.

[ptrefftz]

That photosynthesis question shouldn't have been on there, that was so easy

[ilylac]

well, they're all easy if you know the answer going in.

[dconrad23]

I think if they took their time, all of the contestants could get most of them right. But the whole pressure of being timed and on tv makes it soo much harder.

[Junker8]

How do you not know where mecca is?

How do you not know about king nebuchadnezzar?

*I'm not even religious AT ALL, but those are easy!

HOW DO YOU NOT KNOW VEIN DIAGRAM?

HOW DO NOT KNOW WHAT HAPPENS IN PHOTOSYNTHESIS!!

[JACKIEMON1]

it's not easy.

[esentea]

eh i disagree. those were pretty easy. especially for someone who is on the grand slam. i mean come on...

[JACKIEMON1]

i'm a kid. i don't know that ethier

[downding]

The mecca one was a bad one but I think she just completely lost her way after missing the Hanging Gardens. The way Ken spit the answer out instantly (he obviously planned for the switch and had the answer in his head) completely threw her. She was off balance and never recovered. It's a bit understandable but Ken's not one to be merciful.

[kjhovey]

Gawd girls r dum.

[MutareDragon]

She was probably beating herself up

[Quouar]

What was Phyllis on, anyway?

[PokerJoker811]

More or less everything.

[ronaldraymond]

i agree with dirtfire.  i believe any of the final four could make it to the final. ken and ogi are the favorites in my mind but as phyllis said...look out for the underdog!

I'm thinking that Phyllis just had an off day. And unfortunately, it cost her in the end. But she is amazing. I only wonder if she would have done better if she faced him in the first round.

[SuperGamer7]

No question about that. Phyllis has been on many shows, but she bit was a tad more off than she could chew here.

[dciguy01]

Saw this live. No surprises here. I knew Ken was going to smash in all 4 rounds, but not by THAT much. Ken will make the final (everyone will agree with that), but I am going with Ogi to win the whole thing by the narrowest of margins.

[Dirtfire]

It's anyone's game. Is there a prize for 2nd place, btw?

[JACKIEMON1]

no.
