How Many Play-In Games?
An anonymous commenter on the website asks,
“Hi, will there be a Play-In Game 4 on February 2?”
No. There will be a Play-In Game 3, and that is it. Yes, that means that there are people from Season 39 who either declined to participate or were unable to for some reason. This is a precedented occurrence—even at a level higher than this—and it is inappropriate for you, or anyone else, to post weekly threads on Reddit or ask online constantly why these people are not playing. If the player or the show chooses to tell us, that is their choice, and if not, it is completely inappropriate to harass them for an answer. People’s personal lives and personal choices are their own business alone and not the business of nosy Jeopardy! fans.

More On MatPat
Another anonymous commenter from the website says,
MatPat is great and you sound like a whiney [sic] baby.
Let me ask you this: How would you feel if your research was wilfully misinterpreted to announce to millions that your favorite piece of media was somehow not on the level? I bet you’d feel pretty angry and upset over that behavior.
I’m sure 99% of MatPat’s videos are fine—because they deal with fictional entities. The problem is, Jeopardy! is not a fictional entity. MatPat made the mistake of venturing into an area whose protagonists are not fictional. Jeopardy! is populated by real people, and making the comments he does about real people is not acceptable, where they’d have been perfectly okay had he made them about fictional ones.
That’s why this community is mostly celebrating MatPat’s retirement this week—not because we’re a bunch of whiny babies.
In order to redesign our merchandise area to serve you better in 2026, all merchandise sales have been temporarily taken offline. Look for a return in late 2026! All previous orders will still be supported.
How To Watch UK Jeopardy?
Joan asks,
Hi Andy, this is hopefully an easy question for you but what channel can I watch the new British Jeopardy on? It is only available on ITV? I live in [redacted], USA.
The new British Jeopardy is available live on ITV’s website at 11:00 AM Eastern, and on demand on ITVX (their streaming service, also available at their website). However, you must be connected to the Internet via a United Kingdom IP address in order to view that geo-blocked content.
If you’re in Canada, specialty channel BBC First is showing the episodes, one a week, on Wednesday at 9:00 PM Eastern. (This past Wednesday saw the January 1 episode air.)
A Frequently Asked Question, But I Haven’t Answered It In Mailbag
A viewer emailed to ask,
We have a question on the episode that aired Jan 8, 2024. It was a standard question worth $800. It was correct and went to break. When the show returned, Ken said the question was wrong but they did not take $800 away, they took $1600 away. Why?
Because Jeopardy! has a penalty for guessing. In order to go from a correct response (+$800) to an incorrect response (-$800), the show needs to take $1,600 away.
