My tv station acting quirky and dropping out every 10-15 seconds.

So what happened?

Is it worth watching even if I feel like an idiot when I occasionally see parts of it?

most of the time - my nieces and nephews fell in love with both Wheel and Jeopardy because I insisted that that was the only hour I decided what was on TV (back in the one tv day).

By the way are you watching Buzzy Cohen on Jeopardy? Eight days straight.

<snip>
“You can only be on the show once, and I’m going to make the most of it,” Cohen tells TheWrap before seventh outing with Alex Trebek

“Jeopardy” has a new star on its hands in Buzzy Cohen — a six-day reigning champ that women love and social media loves to hate.

The 31-year-old indie record executive from Los Angeles has swept the competition for almost a week, earned a pot of $121,202 and set platforms like Facebook and Twitter abuzz, for better and worse.

Either celebrated for his polished, pinched-face good looks or slammed for his brainy swagger, Buzzy elicits strong reactions:

I love his suits - made by his father, but he sure is arrogant

And speaking of unusual, that's Buzzy. He reminds me of an animated cartoon character brought to life, or maybe an extra on Who Framed Rodger Rabbit?.

I think he's been extremely lucky for being just a average player, and I suspect he will not shine on the Tournament of Champions.

I'm curious whether the family haberdashery is on the east or west coast. If it is on the west Coast, the LA basin, Pops may be seeing an uptick in sales from the young hip trendsetters looking for 'bespoke' threads.

so they had a buzz off and the one who had been leading most of the game won - then she picked the 100,000 envelope and finished with $125,000 - was very cool - never saw a tie in all these years, but I'm sure it happened before.
