Some inside information about Jeopardy.

I tried the online test but could not even get those buttons right.
The thing I have never liked about the show is how cheap/chintzy they are with the prize. Whereas Wheel of Fortune gives away thousands of dollars (although a lot of it is provided by sponsors, but there is cash, and everyone gets to take home what they win), Jeopardy is very miserly with their awards despite the fact they are making money hand over fist. The least they could do is let contestants take home the amount they gained during the contest.
