Reviews

Fluentiama Perfect cast and a good story
Freaktana A Major Disappointment
Senteur As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.
Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
OllieSuave-007 Jeopardy! is probably the most challenging and most difficult game show out there - one that actually gets your mind racing and your brain thinking. Contestants try to solve the trivia questions being thrown at the them by long-time host Alex Trebek. Instead of giving the answers, you have to give the questions, which is quite creative.You have to have knowledge from a variety of topics, from history to politics, and from movies to science. You can't help but play along, testing your own knowledge and brain. It's quite suspenseful at times as well, especially the Final Jeopardy round, where contestants bid all or part of their earnings to win the game. And, of course, who could not love the ever-so-popular Jeopardy theme song - catchy and recognizable! Grade A-
John T. Ryan "JEOPARDY" had been a very good TV Quiz Show program 1964-75. Pleasant and properly "High Brow" Art Fleming, an Actor by trade, was the Host/Emcee for the length of the show's run. The show was slotted as part of NBC's Daytime Line-Up. It was abruptly canceled in 1975. After all of its success, it got the ax, anyway.Well, wouldn't you know it, but after this 9 year hiatus, "JEOPARDY" was back. It seems that the American Televiewing Audience was ready for ready for a Round 2 in this bout. And after a slow start, it sure looks like this may well be a Championship Bout, with a return bout or two.This time around, we had the mustachioed Mr. Alex Trebek, installed in the all-important Host/M.C. position. Amiable, knowledgeable (Hell, He's got the Answer Cards!) and possessing a commanding Stage Presence, the Canadian-born Mr. Trebek had gotten his earlier broadcast experience with the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation as a Newsman. Then he did some Game Shows on the CBC before coming south across the World's Longest unfortified border to the U.S. of A. and the National Broadcasting Company for a gig on a forgotten game show called "THE WIZARD OF ODDS".(1973-74) This got Alex's then long haired and Kaiser Wilhelm mustached countenance out in front, where his talents and abilities took over, keeping him continually in the public spotlight (a prime requisite in this Network Game Show Host Racket).So, by that Orwellian Watershed year of 1984, Alex was ready to get in front of the camera as well as doing a share of the Producer chores on the retooled "JEOPARDY" This time the show would not have to put the decision of its life or death into the hands, and at the whim of any Network "Suits". Creator Merv Griffin, Columbia-Tri Star TV (later known as Sony Pictures Television) and Alex all gambled on putting all their eggs into the 'Basket' called Syndication. The risk seems to have been a big one, but one that sure paid dividends as it all worked out.That it was highly successful is now strictly academic! The proof is most definitely in the pudding. And this pudding has been around now for some 23 broadcast seasons in syndication and counting. So now they've more than doubled the run of the original series' run and they continue to add to their own record! You see now just what the international co-operation of these 2 North American Giants can accomplish! Canada, represented by Mr. Alex Trebek, and the United States, represented by the Late Mr. Merv Griffin, can both stand tall, brave and free; even they are both definitely in "JEOPARDY!"
DKosty123 This is the Alec Trebek version of the show. The show itself is timeless & addictive. Once you watch it, it always interests you.That is because the answers & questions can deal with any subject. The show can ask the most difficult things or it can ask easy subjects but still interest the viewer. The contestants can be almost any age. There is very little that can't be done with Jeopardy.This is one of the most parodied of game show ever broadcast. Some of the earliest Saturday Night Live (SNL) programs did take offs based upon this. Most interesting about those is that the announcer for the original version of Jeopardy & SNL were Don Pardo. This gave the comedy sketches a different feeling for those who were long time fans.Because of the spoofs of the show, nearly every big time sketch person in comedy from Chevy Chase on has done a take off of this show. That is the really big dedication to Merv Griffen that this show has. Merv created something so successful that even comic sketch take offs from it pose no threat to the real thing.To the addict, it is the game & the contestants that you tune in for. Almost anyone with a decent voice & some intelligence could host it. I wouldn't be surprised Alex Trebek might keep going for a long time as host. Between this & the paid infomercials he is doing, this has much more class & pays better.
cshep When Merv Griffin, or should I say his wife, created "Jeopardy", it was never conceived to reach the heights of intellectual standards it has achieved today. What separates "Jeopardy " from other game shows, are its tough rules which allows limited chances for success and repeat winners. Over the years , this game show has pinnacled many contestants, from all walks of life, some very knowledgeable and some jacks of limited trades. Every week , people would come from out of the darkness to test their skill in the arena of television, against two other unknown combatants. With much success "Jeopardy" provided its viewers with fresh challenges, to joust our minds and prod us to reach new levels within ourselves. There were good players, very good, and then there was "Ken Jennings." An unassuming software engineer from Salt Lake City, Utah. His reign started in June of 2004, it ended on Nov 30th , 2004. For 75 episodes he dazzled us with a staggering display of intellectual prowess, often signaling in, before the answer appeared to register. Often he would make the challengers play catch up, but in one episode, when he was dead last going into Double Jeopardy, like the champion he is, he roared back to take a commanding lead, and left the others in the dust, scratching their heads, and wondering what happened. There will be other champions, they will come and they will go, but when you think of Ken Jennings, you will say ," there he goes , the best there is , the BEST there ever was....""Jeopardy", will never be the same, and neither will we.......
