Inside Jeopardy! podcast, executive producer Michael Davies divulged that Roach — who uses they/them pronouns — has “never” studied for the trivia series.The 24-year-old had lost to fellow victor James Holzhauer during the “Jeopardy! Masters” tournament on May 24, placing second.Roach’s mom Patti had been in the audience during the broadcast and Davies recalled what she said at the time.“[Patti] told me that Mattea spends zero time, and has spent zero time ever practicing for this show,” the EP explained.“They don’t learn trivia, they don’t read trivia books, they don’t sit on the floor in the children’s book department like James,” he said, referencing that Holzhauer used to read kids books to study.“Everything they know is from reading, sitting in front of the TV, reading newspapers and being in front of intelligent people,” Davies revealed.He then noted how Roach’s parents “were so involved in that, and get so much credit in their broad liberal arts education.”“It just shows their potential,” he said.

Another one bites the dust. "Wheel of Fortune" fans slammed the game show after an unlucky contestant didn’t solve a bonus puzzle correctly.  During a bonus round this week, "Wheel of Fortune" player Cesar took a stab at the challenging puzzle.

Alex Trebek was the beloved face of "Jeopardy!" for decades, and he left some big shoes to fill after his death from pancreatic cancer. Once "Jeopardy!" tapped former champion Ken Jennings as host, they also added "The Big Bang Theory" star Mayim Bialik after she was a guest host for Season 37.  Since the two began, they've been receiving backlash from fans of the game show, who have been very outspoken on social media. So much so that the show’s executive producer Michael Davies has weighed in on the criticism.  "This show is so hard to host," Davies said during an interview with Vulture.

Oh my gosh! I’m terrible at this game!” she said.But the hosts of “Jeopardy!” were a good match for their rival game show, with Bialik winning the first round and Jennings taking the second.Neither of them solved the bonus round, but they each won over $60,000 dollars for their charities.

acting quite bizarrely.In the last month or so, Sajak has put a contestant in a chokehold; claimed he hides in letter-turner Vanna White’s garden; asked a contestant to remove his shirt and tugged on a contestant’s beard.On this past Monday night’s show, he even scolded a contestant who grabbed the envelope in the show’s bonus round: “Don’t ever do it again!”One can’t help but wonder if America’s longest-running game show host has finally had enough — or maybe he was always this strange and grumpy.Getting tired of the wordplay grind would be understandable. He’s been hosting “Wheel” for four decades, since 1981.
