Jesus Christ, this video is pure gold. No music, no fancy editing. Everything is perfect. It’s like a home VHS video but better quality. Like a grandson filming his grandad. This is the way it should be. This behind the scenes is a treasure. I am so glad this is video taped. We can remember and learn from it if Jeopardy continues in the future without Trebek. And you can tell that he is truly such an intelligent, wise person. Just listening to him go over the game for that day is so fascinating. The process and what it takes, anyone else can easily mess it up and make so many mistakes... but Trebek, Trebek is THE man for it.

I adore this. It amazes me how laid back the whole production is. The clues are printed on paper instead of being displayed on a fancy computer sponsored by some company, his makeup was quick and easy, and they have a ton of books for clue research. Alex is as much of the process of creating the show's clues as the people who write them, instead of just being the host. No one seems to be the stereotypical Hollywood juggernaut that we're used to. It's a quaint and straightforward production; there's no drama, no sponsors, and the host's personality isn't the main driver of the show. I love this show so much and I wish more television was like it. I really appreciate you guys for making this and releasing the extended version!
