They all probably know like 99% of the answers so it comes down to who is the best on the buzzer and gets daily doubles.

Yeah I mean there isn't much to the game, during Jennings streak I know they gave new contestants more time on the buzzer and Jennings even said almost every contestant knows every answer so it is all about buzzing in.
After they made the change Jennings became less dominant during his streak.

Tournament is his (Trebek) chance to say goodbye.
Didn't realize this was a special so tuned it late.
Drunk and stupid is no way to be remembered but it is an easy way to forget.

Could go as long as 14 games which is wild.

Some categories were very hard. I get the fun celebrities in half the categories but it really makes the game a bit choppy with 15 video clues in a round.

On again today. James up big in game 1 heading into final.
Two days later I get a text back that says I'm a basketball player and a businessman, not a Thundercat.

Uncharacteristically modest wager from James keeps Ken right in the thick of it for game 2

Most it can be is 7
The way Brad is going, seems like most it will be is 5
Hopefully he comes to life a bit

7 shows each with 2 games = 14. So you are technically correct. The best kind of correct.
Yes son. I'm the best mono-thingy guy there ever was.
