Are you watching?

I am a fan, but usually only catch it once or twice every couple weeks. But, I've got the DVR set...but haven't needed it, because I haven't missed it in a week. This Holzhauer guy is awesome. I won't know what's more entertaining...watching him dominate the game; or watching hapless competitors flail with their buzzers. I never heard so much clickclickclickclicking in all the time I've been watching. Older guy gave him a game last night, but just couldn't put him away. Even missing every DD, the champ finished with over 50K, I think. The guy's a machine, but personable. I've read a few articles lately saying how he's ruining the game....I don't know wtf they're talking about. Ratings gotta be through the roof....almost wonder if producers are tempted to slide him some favored categories just to prolong it.....not really, but has the makings for good conspiracy babble

Is he that goofy dude with the bedhead hairdo?

Can't say that I've noticed his hair...I suppose at first glance, he appears goofy....or maybe even smug....but, after a few episodes, I don't think he's either. He appears to have a great, dry sense of humor, and he looks genuinely happy for his competitors when they succeed. He's playing against the board -- never against the other two....except for the last bet of the day, when he maximizes winnings, but does recognize that he can't do that at the risk of losing

I felt the same, thought he was a bit smug at first... But the guy is clearly full of a ton of information, and I'm not sure there's a perfect way to handle being that smart... He seems to be doing an excellent job though...

Little known fact - that song is entirely responsible for jeopardy being put back on the air... For real...

just caught Final Jeopardy a minute ago, haven't seen any in a week and he's still there.
Won't spoil the finish.
