Yes, Julie, I love Ken on Jeopardy! I have been watching every night at 7 p.m. when he is on. It started earlier this summer and I saw when he broke a million dollars and again when he broke two million. I keep waiting and waiting for someone to topple him but so far, no one has come even close. Did you watch yesterday? Jeff Probst was on one of the questions! |

OK, this may be a spoiler and for heavens sake I don't want to offend anyone but there is speculation from early fall that Ken loses on the 75th day. And he had earned over 2 million. So, he has already done the 2 million and I just don't know what day he is on now but when I heard the rumor I calculated that he would lose sometime in early November. You know what, I hope that he retires undefeated.

I am with you, MM, on this. I hope he retires undefeated also. I don't think there is anyone smarter than him! |

Yes, Ken seems to have not only book smarts but also walking around smarts. Only rarely do you see someone with this type of intellingence. He may not be a rocket scienctist but this guy is much more likable and down to earth. Did anyone watch the episode where the question was "sometimes a garden implement and also a description of a loose or immoral person. Ken just blew my mind when he rang in and said , what is a ho..I nearly choked on my diet cola. He merely went on and didn't let it rattle him at all. A true champ. by the way the correct answer was "what is a rake" |

All we can say is: "WOW!" Ken is now the TOP GAME SHOW CASH WINNER OF ALL TIME! It's official! He has now broken every record set by a contestant in game show history! Last night's $45,099 payday put him past the 2.18 million mark set by Kevin Olmstead in 2001 to give him a running total of 2,197,000. But most importantly... he's still going! |

It's a big deal to win ONE game on Jeopardy...you know? This is beyond incredible! I feel sorry for all the contestants that have played against him. Maybe they'll be invited back. I haven't been watching the show every day like I used to, but saw one last month. There was one question that Ken missed and I knew it. And of course I can't remember what it was! argh! Anyway, I felt like such a big shot for the rest of the night. ;-) |

It was a rather slow start for Ken (“Record Holder”) Jennings during the Thursday, November 4th edition of JEOPARDY! But, he was able catch up quickly, surpassing his two opponents to win another $50,000. All the records are behind him now. He’s in uncharted waters! How far will he go? Tune in tomorrow/tonight to find out! OMGosh I can't believe I am running to my TV now to watch Jeopardy LOL Rainman would be so proud Charlie |

Even with all 3 contestants successfully answering the Final JEOPARDY! clue, Ken Jennings claimed another win last night. His gain of $30,000 brings his earnings to $2,355,001. Ken takes a break for the next two weeks as JEOPARDY! presents the College Championship from the University of Pittsburgh airing November 10th through the 23rd, but he’ll be back on November 24th to continue his unprecedented streak. |

Ken is supposed to be on Regis and Kelly tomorrow (dec.1). I guess he ends his streak tonight?? His total last night came up to $2, 541,700. Barbara Walters said today, "Kens 2 year old son doesn't call him Daddy anymore, he says, "here's Ken Jennings"" Charlie |

I just watched Ken lose for the first time. Wow, that other lady, Nancy was sooooooo shocked! The audience were on their feet! An end to an era! Ken will be on Letterman tonight. Then ABC in the a.m. as well as Regis & Kelly. I think Nightline tonight also if I remember. You did very well, Ken Jennings!  |

She did a very good job keeping up her total. That has been the problem beating him, he runs his total up so high, even if he'd get the question wrong he'd still have the most money in the end. Here's the question that got. I myself was thinking maybe lifeguard assc. LOL Final JEOPARDY!
