Celebrity Jeopardy!

... for some of the celebrities. Some of them look completely clueless, giving ridiculous answers to really easy clues. And when they don't do that, they don't pay enough attention to the clue.

You have to understand these clues are WAY dumbed down and some of the celebrities STILL can't perform. The show tried to make them look good, and failed.

However, a few of the celebrities are well-rounded people just like most contestants and fans, and can drive through some of the contestant categories showing that at least THEY have as much common knowledge as anyone you might know. LOL

We've seen through the second semi-final round, and so far both people who advanced to the final did a decent job on the show.

And yes, a FEW of the celebrities act out so much they make utter fools of themselves thinking they're cute but really just annoying the hell out of most viewers. Thankfully, all of those lost ... mostly by WIDE margins.

I watch every episode of Jeopardy. I love that show! This celebrity version is not that show. This celebrity version is an insult to Jeopardy fans everywhere. The regular Jeopardy has 61 questions over a1/2 hour. The celeb version has 3 rounds with a total of 91 questions over 1 hour. The questions are dumbed down, even in the third round. In the second episode the celebs made stupid comments between every question/answer. They were attempting to be funny. They were not. This show has no respect for the game. Mayim acts like she is hosting a party game in her living room. Of the first 6 celebs, only two could compete on the celebrity episodes that were hosted by Alex Trebek. This trash would not be on television if Alex were still with us. No season 2.

Jeopardy is my version of doing crossword puzzles to sharpen my mind. This celebrity version is totally mindless. The questions are absolutely juvenile. I can easily answer almost every clue. It is as if it was designed for a twelve year old. It is such a dumbed down version of the real show. And, the so called celebs spend so much time trying to be cute and entertaining it is just annoying. These celebs are little known and are auditioning for affection and attention at the expense of the show. It is really sad to see people so desperate for attention.

I think it is a disgrace that Jeopardy approved this show. I know it can be better in time.

With Jeopardy nearly finishing its 41st season, I'm gonna talk about the celebrity version of America's Favorite and Long-Running Quiz Show.

Before it became a regular primetime series, it would be an occasional special week-long event of the regular rotation of regular Jeopardy!, which started in 1992 until they were discontinued in 2015.

In 2022, 2 years after the late Alex Trebek passed away from cancer, ABC decided to cash into Jeopardy again after their short-lived Super Jeopardy tournament in the summer of 1990, bringing back Celebrity Jeopardy, but as a tournament event. Mayim Bialik, who was alternating with Ken Jennings as the host of regular Jeopardy, was the host for the 1st season before ultimately getting let go due to her connection with the writers and actors strikes, leading Jennings to replace Bialik starting with the 2nd season.

So if you like questions and answers and celebrities, then enjoy Celebrity Jeopardy!.

Nothing turns me off more than having a special Jeopardy where it's just celebrities jerking each other off answering questions about other celebrities.

So many categories are about which actor did this, starred in this show, or also does this. It's like the more these guys know each other the better they will do on the show.

The questions are also rather simple. I will say no more than 15% of the questions are actually stumpers. I don't feel engaged at all with the celebrities when I keep answering a long with them when most of the questions are basic knowledge or hard not to know clues.

Lastly, did they run out of celebrities because so many of these "celebrities" just have 1 Netflix show that no one has heard of them or the show. When I said the celebrities jerk each other off, they did this constantly with the after break interviews always asking about what tv show/movie they are working on now and who they get to work with. Really? Just one time talk about them outside of Hollywood. Nope, they won't do it.

Only reason I give it 2 stars because there were a few select individuals who do seem out of their league compared to their opposition.
