I like him so far. I'm hoping he breaks a million.

OK, now I have Jeopardy set on my DVR.
YouTube has a video montage from a few years back when James appeared on the game show The Chase on GSN. He was a standout on that show as well, often giving the correct answer before the hostess even finished the question. He led his team to win $175,000, with the hostess mentioning she had never seen anyone do so well on the show. After watching clips of James on both shows, I don't really get the impression that he's cocky at all. He actually seems soft spoken and unassuming. Last edited by CW; 04-20-2019 at 01:37 PM. |

Another $80,000 tonight for a 12 day total of almost $852,000. And he was actually struggling early and got a bunch wrong.

I watched today as well. Assuming this board is anything like the rest of the country, which is also assume isn't always the case, this guy is probably good for ratings. I will probably keep it on the DVR until he loses. I was surprised to see him get a couple wrong, including the first daily double.

Yes, a bit of a slow start on Sunday, but ended up being another blowout for James. This was the first episode with James that I was able to watch and it was quite entertaining.
I see what Barry means about him keeping the small talk to a minimum. He's definitely all business, and occasionally seems to interrupt Trebek in an effort to move onto the next answer. This was also the first episode I've watched since Alex Trebek's cancer announcement, and while his situation is saddening, I give him so much credit for continuing on with his work. It's no doubt that he loves his job and I'm guessing it's the one "normal" part of his day when he can forget about the treatments and can simply be alive. I really hope he can beat this! And, of course, it seems like Trebek is enjoying James' run as much as anyone, based on Friday night's closing words: "Go home, enjoy the weekend, but come back again on Monday. I like having you here." |
