this is why Jeopardy is the only gameshow that matters.
sure, there’s maybe 10 minutes of ads, but that’s a given, unfortunately. the show intro and the interview segment are comparatively lightning quick versus other shows. the rest of the show, short as that may be, is packed with with the fastest gameplay on tv. if Wheel of Fortune moved that quickly, there’d be like 30 puzzles per game.
