My wife is addicted to Jeopardy. She is amazed this current champ keeps doubling down on daily doubles.

I just hope Alex will be around as long as this guy might be.
Interesting as this is happening, Charles Van Doren, who won $129K on the game show 'Twenty-One' in 1956 & 1957 after being given the answers beforehand, died this past week.
This scandal was the basis of the movie, 'Quiz Show'.
