[Warning: The below contains Major spoilers for the June 10 episode of Jeopardy!] Could a Daily Double bet have changed the entire outcome of Adriana Harmeyer’s ninth game? Harmeyer, an archivist from West Lafayette, Indiana, came into Monday’s (June 10) episode of Jeopardy! as an eight-day champion with a total winning of $183,100. She faced off with software developer Josh Fry, originally from Peachtree Corners, Georgia, and high school video production teacher Aaron Lemos, from Northridge, California. Harmeyer got off to a strong start in the first Jeopardy! round, running the Bunny Lit category, but Fry was close, with $2,800 to her $3,800 (and Lemos had $2000) when he chose the Daily Double, in Capitals & Their Airports. “King Khalid International is its gateway,” read the clue. He lost all on a true Daily Double. (The correct answer was Riyadh.) Harmeyer led after the first round with $3,000 to her opponents’ $1,600 each. Harmeyer then found the second Daily Double in the Double Jeopardy! round under ...

Ken Jennings took over as the Jeopardy! host shortly after Alex Trebek’s death and has fit into the role perfectly. Initially, Mike Richards replaced Trebek, but he was forced out and replaced by Hennings and Mayim Bialik. Now, it is Jennings’ show on his own, and fans seem to have accepted him as their own.
However, he recently revealed that he “stole” something from Alex Trebek to make his job much easier. Here is what you need to know.
Ken Jennings Admits To Stealing Something From Alex Trebek
Before Ken Jennings took over as the Jeopardy! host, he was a contestant. He ended up wildly successful, winning $3,022,700 on the show, including $2,522,700 in his initial appearances. Jeopardy! isn’t his only gameshow appearance, as he has won more money than anyone else on American game shows, with $4,522,700 in winnings.

Jeopardy! super-champ Adriana Harmeyer won her eighth consecutive game on Friday night (June 7), marking the longest and highest-earning streak in over a year. Talking to host Ken Jennings early in Friday’s episode, the archivist from West Lafayette, Indiana, revealed her secret weapon for success. After Jennings pointed out how Harmeyer has worn the same necklace for every game, the champ explained, “It’s a cameo necklace that was given to me by my grandmother.” “She loved and collected cameos in all forms and was also a big game show fan,” Harmeyer continued, noting how her late grandmother inspired her to come on the show. “I spent a lot of time watching Jeopardy! and other programs at her side,” she shared, adding that “it’s very possible” that without her grandmother, she wouldn’t be on Jeopardy! “That’s great that you’ve got that memento,” Jennings replied.

A recent Jeopardy! answer from a contestant is dividing fans in a big way, especially those in the Detroit area. So, what did a contestant say that has fans losing their minds?
Jeopardy!: It All Came Down To A Hot Dog Technicality
Jeopardy! is one of the few game shows out there that makes contestants and viewers think. While a lot of game shows may rely on things like physical strength and endurance to outlast opponents, this show is all about using your brain to best your opponents.
Every once in a while, because Jeopardy! is so knowledge-specific, the difference between winning and losing often comes down to the smallest of technicalities. In recent scenes, it was all about a hot dog, and the response a participant gave has inspired a heated debate among viewers.

Jeopardy! viewers are up in arms over a hot-dog-related clue.
An episode earlier this week sparked outrage among hot dog enthusiasts.
A contestant named Adriana Harmeyer went up against her opponents, Christina Paul and Travis Kissire.
The trio was asked to name what they would receive if they ordered a “Coney Island” at a Detroit eatery.
A $1,200 clue in the “City Slang” category read, “Order a Coney Island at Detroit’s finer eateries, and you’ll get this.”
After some clarification, the five-time winner, Adriana, was awarded the correct response.

With Pat Sajak’s final appearance as host of “Wheel of Fortune,” the makeup of a daily hour of television that structures the days of millions of Americans is shifting once more.
“Wheel of Fortune” is the low-pressure option of the two famous game shows invented by the late superproducer Merv Griffin. Unlike “Jeopardy,” it’s intended to be not aspirational but accessible, with simple word-puzzle games and a department-store glamour that comforts but doesn’t dazzle. And Sajak, along with Vanna White revealing the letters, has been at its center since relatively close to the beginning; he took over from Chuck Woolery in 1981, six years into the show’s run, and has since been honored by the Guinness Book of World Records for the longest continuous stint hosting a single game show.
His departure won’t leave a vacuum, exactly; his replacement, Ryan Seacrest, was announced in June 2023 — nearly...

Phrases like "the end of an era" and "TV legend" might be tossed around a bit too often these days.
But in the case of Pat Sajak and the end of his 43-year run as host of Wheel of Fortune, such descriptions couldn't be more apt.
As you've likely heard by now, Sajak is retiring from the show that made him famous, and Ryan Seacrest will take over when Wheel returns for its 42nd season in September.
Seacrest is well-suited to the gig, and while he's got some very big shoes to fill, we're sure he's up to the task of introducing prize puzzles and selling vowels.
But it's unlikely that he'll ever be regarded as an indispensable weekday night staple, as Sajak was for so many decades.

While Jeopardy! super-champ Adriana Harmeyer continued her winning ways on Thursday night (June 6), Ken Jennings seemingly made a reference to his former co-host, Mayim Bialik. As reported by The U.S. Sun, Jennings made the reference during the Final Jeopardy round when he told Harmeyer’s opponents, “Unfortunately, that’s not correct.” That’s not how Jennings usually says things, but it is exactly how Bialik phrased her Final Jeopardy rulings when she was host. Now fans are wondering if Ken is copying Mayim, or having a little inside joke involving his former co-host. “After Shira’s response to Fj was revealed, Ken brought back memories of Mayim by saying, “Unfortunately, that’s not correct,”” wrote one viewer on the Jeopardy! Reddit forum. Another fan commented: ‘Wow! That’s totally what Mayim used to say on the show. I’m sure Ken knew exactly what he was saying there.” Earlier this year,...

Drew finished in sixth place, making it to Day 23 before getting eliminated and becoming the sixth jury member. He voted for Austin to win, but Dee emerged with the 5-3 victory.

On Wednesday night’s episode, Adriana Harmeyer became a six-game champion in a stunning runaway, leading one former “curse” victim to cheer for her success. Harmeyer, an archivist from West Lafayette, Indiana, came into the game with a five-day cash winnings total of $116,200 and was the third five-day champion of the season, following Alison Betts and Amy Hummel. She faced a new pair of challengers in Allee Mead, a writer from Grand Forks, North Dakota, and Kyle Sorlie Titlow, a geographer from Washington, D.C. In the first round, Harmeyer had some solid competition from Mead — the latter was just one answer shy of tying her correct answers score of 10.

Jeopardy! fans are eager to see host Ken Jennings show his skills on Dancing with the Stars.
As DWTS Season 33 approaches, various cast rumors are swirling about which dancers and celebrities will appear.
Jennings initially appeared on Jeopardy! as one of the most successful contestants before becoming one of the show’s hosts several years ago.
He’s since gone on to fill the famous shoes of the late Alex Trebek, receiving an Emmy nomination for his work.
However, trying his dancing skills on the ballroom floor might require him to step out of his comfort zone and put on shoes he’s not used to. It’s something fellow game show host Drew Carey from The Price Is Right has done.
Jennings recently addressed whether he would appear on DWTS and Jeopardy! fans seem to support his joining the cast.

When Alex Trebek passed away, the massive search for his replacement began and it was no easy task. The Jeopardy! host was a staple and an icon. Finally, former 74-time winning contestant, Ken Jennings took the reins alongside actress and neuroscientist, Mayim Bialik. Fans seemed to like Ken much more and eventually, Mayim took a leave of absence due to the strikes. This made production see that they only needed one host as opposed to two though they did share hosting duties when...

For all its surface smoothness, yacht rock — and the artists who created it over the last few decades — can be turbulent below deck. Some of the musicians and singers associated with the genre (whether they want to be linked to it or not) can have dark sides, illicit pasts, insecurities, and surprising rock & roll antics sides.

Did Furiosa’s Poor Box Office Performance Get Another Mad Mad Movie Shelved? (Photo Credit – IMDb)
After a surprisingly bad debut at the box office, George Miller’s Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga might have just ruined the chances of any other Mad Max sequels or prequels. As George Miller wrote Fury Road, he also worked on developing Furiosa and The Wastelands. But given the box office performance of Furiosa, it might have put a halt to the next Mad Max movie.
Forty-five years after George Miller introduced audiences to Mad Max, the auteur may have finally reached the end of the road through the postapocalyptic wasteland unless he can find redemption with his Mad Max films.
Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga, the highly regarded director’s film, opened to a poor $32 million domestically over the four-day Memorial Day weekend and $36.5 million internationally. This set back expectations for Mad Max: The Wasteland,...

Jeopardy! has itself a new champion after Wednesday night (May 29), but it came at the expense of another contestant who fell into the trap of a “brutal” Daily Double clue. On Wednesday’s episode, one-day champion Abby Mann, a digital scholarship librarian from Normal, Illinois, returned to the Alex Trebek Stage to take on Adriana Harmeyer, an archivist from West Lafayette, Indiana, and Brian O’Shea, a gifted specialist & teacher from Winston-Salem, North Carolina. The game started pretty tight in the Jeopardy round, with the scores relatively close heading into Double Jeopardy. Mann led with $4,800, O’Shea followed closely with $4,600, and Harmeyer trailed with $3,800. Things changed in Double Jeopardy, especially thanks to the two Daily Doubles. Harmeyer landed the first Daily Double, bumping up her total by $4,000 and giving her a solid lead. Meanwhile, O’Shea found the second Daily Double but ended up losing $6,000 after falling for some tricky wording. Under the “White House Weddings” category,...

Ken Jennings is usually lenient when it comes to his role as Jeopardy! host, but he isn’t afraid to get mean and throw some shade when the situation calls for it. On the latest episode of the Inside Jeopardy! podcast, hosts Sarah Whitcomb Foss and Buzzy Cohen played a clip from an off-air segment where a member of the studio audience asked Jennings what happens when a contestant doesn’t answer in the form of a question. “Oh, boy. Do you know what hanging, drawing, and quartering is?” Jennings quipped. The host went on to say that he gets progressively meaner throughout the episode if a contestant continues to mess up that key Jeopardy! rule. He explained, “The rules are actually different in the first and second rounds. In the first round, I get to remind them very sternly. I say, ‘Yes, but please remember your phrases.'” “In the second round,...

Young and the Restless (Y&R) spoilers suggest that Victor Newman (Eric Braeden) isn’t a fan of those who meddle in his business. When Cole Howard (J. Eddie Peck) recently had a suspicion that The Moustache was hiding something, he did a little snooping and blew the entire Jordan (Colleen Zenk) secret out of the water. Cole went above and beyond to stop Victor, by not only involving Michael Baldwin (Christian LeBlanc), but forcing Newman’s hand to release Jordan to the police.
Heck hath no fury like Victor Newman scorn, so now that he’s in The Moustache’s bad books, can he kiss a romantic reunion with Victoria Newman (Amelia Heinle), goodbye?

A Jeopardy four-day champ’s reign is over after a big final bet didn’t pay off. The player bet so highly, he ended his fifth game with just $1. Playing in the May 28, 2024 game was returning champ Amar Kakirde, a graduate student from Lake Hiawatha, New Jersey, with a total winnings of $55,899; Abby Mann, a digital scholarship librarian from Normal, Illinois; and Steve Miller, a retired medical transcriptionist from Eugene, Oregon. Miller staged an impressive comeback throughout the game, bringing himself back from -200 at the first break to a first-place lead heading into Final Jeopardy. This was made possible in part by two successful Daily Double answers, but just like Kakirde, Miller was foiled by a risky wager in the final round. Mann was in third place for most of the game, but she proved to have made the best bet of the night when gambling only $3,000 on the “European Scientists” Final Jeopardy clue.

Jeopardy! fans have been getting tired of bad gameplay lately. However, after this past week’s shows, they have another reason to complain. An answer given by defending champion Amar Kakirde was wrong, and Ken Jennings called it wrong. However, production reversed the decision during the commercial break.
Here is what fans had to say about the changing of the result to what was considered a “wrong answer.”
Fans Angry That Amar Kakirde Got Call Reversed
Amar Kakirde has been the most recent Jeopardy! champion, but one of his answers has caused controversy among the fans. This is because even Ken Jennings told him he was wrong. However, the production team reversed the decision and gave it to Amar anyway.
Amar Kakirde chose the category “Date of Birth” for $400. The clue said, “Jan. 3, 2009, with the mining of the Genesis block.” The answer was “What is Bitcoin?” No one said that.

Jeopardy! champ Amar Kakirde kept his winning streak alive on Monday night (May 27) when he won his fourth consecutive game, putting him one victory away from a guaranteed spot in the next Tournament of Champions. However, fans have pointed out that Kakirde has one of the lowest four-day cash totals in the game show’s history. He came into Monday’s game with a three-day total of $41,399 and added an extra $14,500 after defeating Ryan Alcorn, a product manager originally from Needham, Massachusetts, and Tim Keily, a search & rescue pilot from Sitka, Alaska. “How much does Amar’s four day cash total compare to four+game champions of the past? I imagine it’s definitely gotta be on the far lower end of four day cash winnings throughout the show’s history,” asked a user on the Jeopardy! Reddit forum. Another fan responded that since May 24, 2010 (including the current Toc cycle...
