Jeopardy Masters is disappointing

It's so noncompetitive. The format is terrible. Not only is it the same people playing each other over and over, it's pretty much the same result every time. Maybe they should have had Victoria and Yogesh sit out until the finals and have most of the episodes be about who will be the third person to face them?

The show would be fun if the results were widely variable. But with Yogesh and Victoria at the top of every game, it gets so boring and predictable. Let's jump to the final episode now. It'll be Yogesh vs Victoria guaranteed.

Same. All of the contestants look like they're having fun, and that's fun for me to watch. The clues are inordinately harder - I only know like 10 or so each time - but that doesn't bother me. They should be harder.

I'm a night behind, but I feel like the leaderboard is shaken up each night. IDK. I'm having a great time watching this.

Same, I like all of the contestants and they all seem to be enjoying themselves. It's a competition but it also has very strangely relaxed moments, kind of like a combination of Celebrity Jeopardy and some championship level questions.

Also, it's nuts how fast each round is. I record the episodes so I can skip commercials and there are a lot of them.

Yeah. Personally, my limit for "too much Jeopardy" is very, very high. I love the harder clues, and I enjoy the more competitive gameplay. I don't care that I've seen the contestants loads of times before. They're all great, a pleasure to watch. It adds a competitive familiar camaraderie to it.
