Here’s the recap from the third of five quarterfinals – the first I’ve been able to watch “live”! If you watched our #JeopardyLivePanel ToC Preview episode on Sunday, you heard it slip out that this episode took NINETY MINUTES to tape!
Also, Kaya Chua (contestant from last season and multiple #JeopardyLivePanel panellist) was in the audience for the semifinals and finals, and has agreed to provide some audience-person thoughts next week for our coverage! I’m really looking forward to the insight!
Today’s contestants:
Matt Jackson
John Schultz
Jennifer Giles
I can’t believe these scores in the tournament so far! The players have certainly been up to the task! Also, any category where your possible response lines are “Emerson, Lake, and Palmer” and “Tinker, Evers, and Chance” are A-OK in my book!
I’ve seen a few comments as well that tonight’s game was too easy. What do you think? Leave a comment!
I’m a little disappointed that it’s so hard to tell when my buzzer broke, but I think I heard the button hit the stage.#toc2015— John Schultz (@jwschultz)November 12, 2015
@andythequizzerI’d have to go back, but it bounced during Matt’s answer, probably right before the first Veteran’s Day question?— John Schultz (@jwschultz)November 12, 2015
@andythequizzerI had been trying to signal with a defective device for 2 or 3 clues, so they ran them back and replaced them.— John Schultz (@jwschultz)November 12, 2015
@andythequizzerYeah… I tried to be as obvious as I could about something being up, but I probably should’ve yelled WAIT— John Schultz (@jwschultz)November 12, 2015
@andythequizzerFortunately, ducking behind the podium is a pretty bright red flag— John Schultz (@jwschultz)November 12, 2015
Also, some insight as to why the game took 90 minutes to tape:
