Sorry watching Jeopardy and this guy is unreal. I can't remember the last time he had a close match!

He is amazingly bright.
He is also an infinitely annoying little geek and I can't stand him.

I thought you could only play 5 in a row. Wow. This has to be good for their ratings.

That's what i thought, too. I started recording Jeopardy this week (finally) and watched yesterday's show before work this morning. He's amazing. The guy just dominates categories. The woman who came in third probably only answered 4 questions, 2 of them incorrectly.

That is awesome. It's good for ratings until no one beats him. Ever.

He does eventually lose, although I think he goes over a million in earnings. The shows were all taped in February, and he is no longer at the new tapings.
Guy did really well for himself, eh?
