I used to watch the show occasional, came off after the evening news, not so mcuh anymore, winner was always the same. At first it was great for the ratings, but now I'm not so sure. I think the producers will be happy when he is gone.

"I was at the taping today of Jeopardy. He lost during his 75th game and eventually won 74 games. He ended up with 2.5M. He got a standing ovation by the crowd. I asked the studio if this was supposed to be a secret but they said we could spread the news. Spread the news. The show should air around the end of October."

They'll probably get him to replace Alex Trebek.

Or give him his own quiz show.

What was his name, Ken Jennings? My wife mentioned that if she ever got on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, she'd want Ken as a phone a friend. Maybe they should add him as a permenant fixture....50/50, Phone a friend, Ask the audience, ask Ken.

I heard he loses by a buck. That would really suck! I'll bet he's glad it's over.

actually, he lost almost 2 months ago

it's a taped show and for some reason, they waited to show it now

I have enjoyed watching the stunned death camp expression on the two losing opponents near the end of the show as he beats them by thirty thousand bucks or so. Looking daggers to say the least!

I stopped watching Jeopardy some time ago, It wasn' t interesting anymore with him being the winner all the time. Although he kicked some serious ass on the show.

Well talk of the nation on NPR just did a little bit on him leaving the show. Seems they are letting the secret slip out. It is the last of sweeps so good rating are a must for advertising dollars. Think they put his final episode on this week for any particular reason?

The nickname for those he's beaten: "Kennon fodder"
I wonder if any of us will be alive when his 75 show streak gets broken
