Jeopardy! producers Michael Davies and Sarah Foss are considering making a change to how categories are displayed on-screen, following a thread discussing the issue on the Jeopardy! Reddit forum.

Davies brought up the topic on Monday’s (February 13) edition of the Inside Jeopardy! podcast, noting, “In the era of 16:9 HD television, whether or not we should be putting the categories on screen when our clues appear.”

As it currently stands, the categories are listed at the top of the board, but once a contestant chooses a dollar value from a particular category, the clue pops up without the category listed anywhere on the screen.

The only time I would like the title category shown is when they have final Jeopardy. It is shown at first then the contestants are thinking the question over and writing their answer it disappears. I am thinking too and wonder what was the category for I can' t see it . Other than that the show is fine the way it is.
