Jeopardy, The Game Show
The show has been on the air for 35+ years and I never watched it. But for some reason, I have recently added the show to my list of daily morning watch. I found a youtube channel that airs it early int eh day and without ads so I watch it on my cell phone before I get up in the morning. And the more I watch it, the better I am getting in correctly answering the questions. I am beginning to understand how to figure out some of the clues in the categories.
But, regardless, there are just so many areas where I have no basic knowledge. For instance, I know nothing about:
- the bible
- The Middle Ages
- chemistry
- the planets
- the British monacrcy
- physics
- world leaders
- sports (all sports)
- current pop culture
- famous movie lines
- british literature
- the french revolution
- ancient civilization
- anatomy
- architects other than Frank Lloyd Wright
- dinosaurs
- the Roman Empire
- Shakespeare's plays
- TV, post 1975
I do know:
- civil rights leaders
- geography
- modern literature
- current events
- many capital cities
- current US leaders
- some movies and movie lines
- world religions
- world foods
- TV, pre 1970
- world famous artists
- world heritage sites
But, to be honest, I would not be a good contestant. I should just stick to playing by myself, privately in my bedroom where there is no consequences for getting the wrong answer.
