On "Jeopardy"
Since it is part of the rules for "Double Jeopardy",the players(Celebrities and regular civilian players)should give the category AND the amount(regular players do,celebrities don't have to,I guess)and give their answer in the form of a question,and should be penalized if they don't?(same thing)

I forgot to add ,do you think they all(both civilian non-celebrity contestants AND celebrities)should abide by the rules?My answer is yes.

I agree. Everyone should play by the same rules. Celebrities shouldn't be given special treatment.

They tend to give celebs a break since they're playing for charity. But if a celeb forgets to phrase the "Final Jeopardy" response in the form of a question, they would be penalized (not given credit for it).

On Today's season premiere,something happened during the Double Jeopardy round involving a SMART,guty player(and I DO mean gutsy and smart)named Roger,who had $12,000 and during his wagering,did something that even surprised Alex Trebek.(No,no violent acts,no cheating).Not to mention the ther players too.They were just as surprised.He must have REALLY been knowledgable to do it.Did anyone else see today's season premiere?

And no,there was no cursing,either.What this player named Roger did was really,as I said,gutsy ,and he must have been really knowledgable.

Answer:Roger,on yesterday's season opener,surprised everyone(including Alex Trebek-)when,on a "Daily Double"in "Double Jeopardy",he ,with $12,000,made it a TDD(True Daily Double)and bet the whole $12,000!Answered the question correctly,and won!
