I love James, he's like a great sportsman. A once in a generation player.

I've been watching him from day 1 and he is by far the best Jeopardy contestant there ever was. Ken Jennings was pretty good but this guy is going better.

Lol. No. Jennings is better. He just won the greatest of all time tournament against James and Rutter.

Love watching and cheering on James, he is supremely smart! 😳

James May be the best medicine for Alex in addition to his other treatment and all the well-wishers. The show’s ratings are through the roof and Alex doesn’t want to miss this phenomenon of a young man at this December stage of his life. God bless both of them.

I believe that James can do whatever the hell he wants with his money. He earned it himself. Good for him. I hope he breaks all the records. I love watching him.

You really ARE phenomenal ! I can only guess that you have a photographic mind and total recall. keep it up!! It is wonderful!!

Plus I love how the other contestants sweat and get so frustrated it's so satisfying

Amazing, amazing, amazing man. He’s so unique and a pleasure to watch.

love this guy hope u keep on winning

James is a monster!!!!! He's insane! I'm rooting for this guy!!!!! Cmon james!!!!!

Finally, something Las Vegas can be proud of!

Great family resemblance!

I am always disappointed when someone else got the the daily double. He is so much fun to watch .He is the BEAST . I am a huge fan of James . 5000,000. $$$$$ James !

He seems normal like a guy you can have a drink with. I love this guy. So smart and cool.

Isn't James half Asian

Didn't break Ken Jennings record

James has an amazing memory. He controls the buzzer so precisely and answers before I, at home can absorb the question completely. I'm a Jeopardy aficionado, however, I stopped watching after he surpassed a $million. I began supporting the 2 other befuddled contestants, which then made me feel TOO frustrated. So, if Jeopardy Officials want to pass the money to one person in order to boost ratings, so be it. But, last year at the end of one show, Alex Trebec gave disparaging comments about contestants breaking the tradition of starting at the top of each category, rather jumping into the bottom one. James has been allowed since his first day to do this, thus with his acumen, can make thousands at the start. I wonder if Vegas will allow him to return to gamble again

@mydogskips2

Look, I'm not the biggest fan of the guy either, for numerous reasons, not the least of which is that he's simply too good, but it's not fair to criticize his playing style. Frankly, doing so makes it harder for his opponents giving him an even greater advantage, jumping around the board makes you have to think even better and faster, about different topics in rapid succession, something which James is incredibly adept at, so if he wants to do it it's his right. Arthur Chu did it and got demonized, and now James does similar; I just say, if you don't like it, BEAT HIM.

@stephenbeck7222

Everyone has always been ‘allowed’ to pick whatever clue they want when they have control of the board. Trebek has made comments about people jumping around because it often leads to mistakes or just blank stares waiting on the timeout buzzer. That’s not an issue for James - he is answering more clues correctly than any other contestant ever (Ken Jennings is still considered the trivia king and James is averaging about 2 more clue answers per game) and his strategy also allows him to completely snowball his money earned. It’s great TV for those who enjoy excellence.
