Jeopardy’s 2014 Top 5 Moments – What Will No. 1 Be?
Jeopardy has been posting its Top 5 Iconic Moments on 2014 and here are the ones they’ve shown on Facebook so far:
No. 5: In October, Ben Ingram surprised viewers by beating Julia Collins and Arthur Chu to win the Tournament of Champions. (Hmmm.. in this video recap, Arthur admits that the experts were favoring Ben)
No. 4: Earlier this year, Arthur Chu shook up the game of Jeopardy! and went on an 11 game win streak.
No. 3: In May, Brad Rutter took the Battle of the Decades crown over Ken Jennings and Roger Craig.
All of the above must pale in comparison to No. 2: September saw the return of Alex Trebek’s iconic mustache. (Short-lived as it was)
Stay tuned to Jeopardy!’s Facebook page for the Big No. 1 reveal. Since Julia Collins won far more games than Arthur Chu, it’s got to be about her achievement and that’s something — more important than Alex Trebek’s mustache!
What was your favorite 2014 moment on Jeopardy!?
That was a great highlight, Cece.
I really enjoyed the TOC and BOTD this past year. They did make Julia Collins #1.
I would have made the TOC #2 and BOTD #1, but I guess it’s hard to compete with the mustache, so congrats to Julia.
I enjoyed the BOTD but was disappointed that Jennings didn’t win.
As for the mustache…I just don’t get all the fascination about it 🙂
me either… but if he could groom it in such a way that he could turn to the audience and give it an evil twirl every time he one ups a contestant, I would. LOL
Lol, like Zapata’s.
My favorite 2014 moment was during Kids Week when Cerulean Roger Craig’d his $11,000 on a DD and gave the right answer. Priceless! Albeit way risky.
Those post-game chats from the TOC were really cool, too. At the time, it seemed like a sign of even better surprises to come, then those $*&&^!!** hackers came along 🙁
Yeah, talk about “killjoys”! Btw, has Sony determined that it was indeed an inside job? I haven’t been following the story.
I haven’t been following that either but the good news is the COTD is back and the howdies, too!
