We have come to bury Ken, not to praise him.

holy shit, he wasn't gone yet?

finally.

 

[~LadyLemon~]

I missed it

the audience sounded like Lassie had just been shot when they realized he got the final question wrong.

 

[speedracer]

I was disappointed. Ken was off his game, and Nancy really didn't look like anything special (I think she answered 10 questions correctly to Ken's 29, or something like that). She got the Final Jeopardy question right, and Ken didn't.

Actually, I'm really disappointed that they didn't bring Sean Connery on the show to dispose of Ken.

I'm just glad that college boy didn't win. Trebekie...

and Nancy was hilarious because she couldn't believe she'd actually beaten Jennings. it was great, I'm so glad I randomly tuned in to Jeopardy last night.

sad for the show though- their ratings are gonna go down so much after this.

 

[GibsonGirl]

I liked Ken.

That would have been awesome!!! (The pen is mightier.... )

I wouldn't feel too badly for Ken, $2.5 million is going to allow him to see U2 whenever, and wherever he wants. He might even have enough left over for the iPod!

 

[DaveC]

i'll take the rapists for $600, alex.

I say it was an intentional loss. 2.5 mil, 75th appearance. Easy Final Jeopardy quesetion. It had to be intentional.

 

[Seabird]

It's about damn time!

 

[speedracer]

And Nancy Zerg is out after one win. Amazing.

I thought the same thing.

I hope that he didn't throw it.

 

[U2Kitten]

I'm so glad, I was about ready to punch the screen the next time I saw his annoying grinning mug I hope they go back to a 5 day limit for champs. I don't think his losing will hurt ratings, it should help them since there were people (like me) who had stopped watching because they were so sick of him.

 

[blueyedpoet]

holy crap, who the hell watches that show anyways?

 

[blueyedpoet]

i mean, other than my grandparents

 

[maro_chik]

From the looks of it, alot of us do.
