I didn’t. Apparently, it has been on for two seasons. It is hosted by Dan Patrick. A friend turned me on to it.
It seems to be an official Jeopardy product, as it uses the same music, font, format, game play, and it even has clew crew Kelly Miyahara as the announcer. About the only difference is that there is one less clue per column, and the winnings are less. Oh, and that all the questions are sports based.
It’s on the streaming/SmarTV network “Crackle”, which I had also never heard of.
Is it just me? How many of you were aware of this show? Does anyone out there watch it?
those might be old …because years ago they tried different forms of jeopardy on various channels …vh1 had music/rock jeopardy one kid channel had jep! which was for school kids there were others
A friend and I recently spent an evening binge watching a bunch of episodes. I enjoyed them. I’m gonna have to get the Crackle app on my Roku so I can watch more.
I was thinking there was a version of it in the early 1970s but that turned out to be “Sports Challenge”, hosted by Dick Enberg. Lasted from 1971 to 1979 which is longer than I would have thought, although it may only have been the separate CBS version that lasted two years. Memorable moment: a team of NFL players was down 90 points at the last stage: a sports figure would appear in silhouette. Enberg would recite his life story as the clock ran down, losing a point a second for 90 seconds. The man appeared, shifted his stance slightly so you could tell he wore glasses. The players (Deacon Jones?) immediately yelled out “Satchel Paige” and was right. Unfortunately one second had elapsed so they got 89 points and lost by a point. Jones said he guesses Paige because he was in the news by making the Hall of Fame
