J! Monday night

[Matt Ottinger]

[quote name=\'tvwxman\' date=\'Jun 20 2004, 04:35 PM\'] How do you think Matt O will do against "Buzzsaw" Jennings Monday night?

1. He goes into the history books as the guy who takes out the big champ.
2. He at least goes into FJ! with enough to win, SHOULD Ken blow the question.
3. He goes into FJ! like everyother Ken opponent.
4. He doesn't go into FJ!, on account of a negative score.
5. He doesn't go into FJ!, on account of answering every response with "Who is Malcolm?". [/quote]
 Do I get to vote?

Seriously, thanks for all the kind words and well wishes.  Later tonight (after 11pm Eastern, of course) I'm sure I'll have a lot to say in Show Summaries.

Matt has all the makings of a great long-running champ: Knowledge, personality, and wit. Plus his TV experience will be a great psychological advantage as he's less likely to be distracted by the studio environment.

But as I found out on FaceTheMusic and other shows that I hope are lost forever, anything is possible when the game begins. So I say, let's concern ourselves less with the outcome and more with how well he plays the game and how his personality comes across on the tube.

After all, this is Hollywood, where it's far more important to be held in high regard, create a good image, and look good than to BE good!

Now go kick ass and take more MervDollars than Denny Terrio!

Which brings up a good question - what's the latest J! appears for anybody on this board? 7 p.m. Pacific (10 p.m. Eastern)? Later? Anybody in Guam, where America's Day Begins?

I can't tell, but I'm rooting for both. Ken's proven himself, but Matt....well, for me NOT to root for him would be a disgrace to this forum [in my opinion, at least]. So I'd say that if Ken wins, Matt would be very close. If Matt wins [I'll be totally surprised if this happens], Ken would be real close.

[Frank15]

I think there's a pretty decent chance for option #2, that he could surely get into Final Jeopardy! with enough to beat Ken if he were to miss the question.  And he's missed a Final Jeopardy! question or two, so who knows .

I'm personally hoping Ken and Matt will win in a tie game and become co-champions for at least 10 shows !

Many thanks. Would that the I Gotta Post Nows show you the same respect.

Several markets on the West Coast air the show at 7:30P, which is why Matt is being considerate and waiting until 8 our time.

Here's my prediction....Ken's GOIN' DOWN BIG TIME.  Matt will be the new champion, no question about it.
