In the 17 years that Ken has been the record holder for longest winning streak, no one else has ever made it to the halfway point of his record before. You say Ken is your idol.

    Ken Jennings, James Holzhauer, and Thom McKee (who was on Tic Tac Dough in 1980) proved that you can have a series of good days, but all you need is that one bad day, and when that happens, it's all over. Nevertheless, Matt did a magnificent job overall. He certainly followed the trends of what Ken and James did during their runs, set some trends of his own, and became a legend along with them. Kudos to you, Matt!

    My husband and I and our special needs son watches Jeopardy every night and have since in came on TV, we Love, Alex. But we love our new host Maylim, probably spelled wrong, but we love her fun, witty sense of humor, how she treats the guest. She is a great addition to the show, I know Alex is proud..
    But Matt, I don't know if I was drawn to you because my son's name is Matthew, but we have enjoyed watching you. You are down to earth and not greedy with the amount you bet, you could have won alot more. We are so proud of you and will look forward to seeing you on the Champion 🏆 show, we wish you the best with your winnings. Good luck in life, sorry to see you go..

    I'm going to miss this Champion so much. Such a great and humble man. I even bought a Jeopardy Coffee Cup during his run and drank my 2nd cup during the game. I'm just going to miss Matt Amodio so much. My husband as well because I would text him as each show progressed. Also texted his final when of the game each day, how much he wagered and then his accumulative amount of money. I'm happy and I'm sad. Love this man so much!

    One of the very few shows I watch as I love to play along. My wife always asks why or how do you know or how does someone know all this useless information. I just nod and say I don't know I just do or they just do. But it's not just knowing the answers. The ones like Jeopardy James and Matt Amodio really knew how to use the board and were masters at finding and using the daily doubles. This last game showed just how important that was. Congradulations Matt, looking forward to a duel between you and James.

    Nothing against Ms Bialik, (who I think is doing a great job), , but as Matt’s winning streak continued, I started to think that he would be a great host of the show. Like Ms Bialik, he has a Phd( or will have shortly) and his breadth of knowledge is quite impressive.

    Matt is hands down my favorite Jeopardy Champion. His humility, sincerity, intelligence and genuineness, have taken him head and shoulders above the rest. I liked "Jeopardy James" for his unique style, Buzzy for his flamboyance, and others for their own personalities but none had all of the qualities of Matt. I was never a fan of Ken because his ego came through and clouded any likability for me. I only wish Alex Trebek could have met James as they are of the same cloth.

      I feel that the manner in which Jeopardy producers (or whoever does the picking) was ridiculous. Just look at the Price is Right when Bob Barker retired. All of a sudden one day, Drew Carey was the new host. I am not a fan of Drew Carey, but picking him by the producers was the least stressful to the fans of Price is Right.

      It seemed very fishy all episode...he might have had a bad day but I think the show wanted him to move on. He looked bemused at several points which wasn't his usual. I really enjoyed his run, and his epic knowledge offset Mayims eagerness to fill in answers she wanted to expand on. I swear she wants to be on the player side showing off. Best wishes to Matt.
