I remember watching the Matt Amodio one. I loved his streak and I was so worried he would lose! But he killed it in double jeopardy! Love that guy! My favorite player
12/22/2024 I remember watching his last game (10/11/2021). It was kinda scary seeing him in 3rd going into final. But he won 38 games and over $1.5M (about a third of that went to various charities during the short guest host era). Upon seeing there would be a Second Chance competition, I was rooting for Rowan Ward (8/13/2021) to win for the possibility of a rematch against Matt in the Tournament of Champions, and they did. But Matt had a semifinal bye and Rowan lost to John Focht in the QF round. He didn’t make it to the finals, but he did become one of the top three seeds in the TOC. Then came Jeopardy! Masters. I had hoped we would see Matt compete on Primetime (initially The Chase b/c we didn’t know Masters would be a thing). But he got to compete against James Holzhauer, who inspired Matt’s gameplay style. He even beat James in one of the Masters games (James wagered everything and lost in FJ as far as I can remember) Being a finalist with James Holzhauer and Mattea Roach, he got to compete on Masters again in May 2024. But he placed 6th If Jeopardy Masters gets a 3rd season, they will most likely hold the Invitational Tournament again. If that happens we will probably see Matt on J! again. But only time will tell what happens
there was a comeback from a college student named Ryan (?) who was in 3rd but then ran the last 2 categories to finish in the lead. I was hoping it would be here.
11:42-That was the correct response that Diana North forgot to put a “G” in in the word “Waiting”, and that was apparently enough to deem it incorrect in the fall 2012 teachers tournament. That cost her a trip to the semi-finals, because had she added that letter, she would have had $17,600, which would have put her among the four wild-card qualifiers for the semi-finals.
Congratulations to all of the contestants who made this list! I'd like to add another episode to this list from Season 33, the 2017 Jeopardy Teachers Tournament, first Semi-final game. It includes two great players, Gail Ansheles and the late Sara Holub. At the time, the Executive Producer of Jeopardy said he thought it was the latest, greatest comeback in Jeopardy history. From $400 in the hole at the break to over $27,000 for the win. th-cam.com/video/vvVz-011hoQ/w-d-xo.html
It was nice to see "Jeopardy!" again with Alex Trebek 🤗 When Pluto tv canceled "Jeopardy!" I almost canceled them ( Un-installed), but they have "Midsomer Murders," and they have a Mute, which tubi often lacks (many Ads are just noise, and sum are Stupid, like the AHS with that woman from SNL)
Ken James and Matt Amodio are the best players to me. Never really seen Brad play. I have seen him in a greatest of all time tournament and he was terrible
Best ever! Tight editing to boot.😊

It always felt like Matt ended his run on his own terms.
Me too!! Seems like such a good guy..& very polite, which I like & respect
I agree! He is so likable.

Patrick’s ecstatic that his comeback paid off.

Mattea Roach had a comeback on 1 night of J! Masters.

The 2017 Jeopardy! Teachers Tournament is my favorite Teachers Tournament, because I had some of the most fun with it.
12:44 his buzzer technique was a lot better
Is the thumbnail a reference to "Sunset Blvd" ?

25:42 Does anybody notice this goof?
Arthur Gandolfi had a 2 week break after winning his 1st game on “Jeopardy!”
Zoha Khalili- 2/1/22 is a notable contender
Holy cow THAT'S Brad?!?!?!
He's just a little baby
Brad Rutter ftw!
I don't care what anyone says, in my opinion, Brad Rutter will always be the greatest Jeopardy player of all time.
I'm sorry Ken is the best player ever. He's the host for a reson.
@@MarlysaLadwigreason*
@@alexbones0001 because he won over 2M dollars obviously he's smart
@@MarlysaLadwigHe’s the sole host because, reasons.
Ken James and Matt Amodio are the best players to me. Never really seen Brad play. I have seen him in a greatest of all time tournament and he was terrible
The Matt Amodio game really does remind a person how bland a host Mike Richards was.
As there were two King James of England and six of Scotland, I don't see how "King James" was a sufficient answer in that final Jeopardy...
Because the clue was about the King James Bible
It’s almost like the first in a line of first names doesn’t necessarily have to have their numbered denotation at the end…
I hated The Caine Mutiny. It was too Wouk.
Dumb luck
