<i>Jeopardy!</i> Contestant Has Won Eight In A Row And Works Perfectly As A Heel
Jeopardy! is a wonderful show, but it almost always features contestants who can politely be described as “bookish.” The program carries a sober tone, and host Alex Trebek keeps the antics to a minimum, even during the contestants’ mid-round anecdotes (the worst part of each episode).
