Jeopardy 2/25
« on: February 25, 2005, 11:07:44 PM »
Just a request...

Did anybody tape the show today? The end credits ran extra long today, and we could hear the elusive full second half of the theme song...That is, if it wasn't interrupted by your local affiliate, like it was in Seattle.

If anybody taped it, and it wasn't interrupted, may I have an audio clip of it? I don't have much to exchange for it, but I hope someone can help.

Thanks in advance.

Now I wish I had.  Apparently, I'm not the only one looking for that...

If it's the theme you want, here's the whole thing. Props to the artist formerly known as Game Show Steve for providing this to the squadron earlier this week:

No, the theme they play after the credits has no sax in it.

No sax and no guitar. In my opinion, the on-air version is better than the one linked.

This will be almost no help, but there was an episode right before the Teen Tournament started that had almost the *entire* theme playing at the end. They held the contestant shots for about 15 seconds before each break as well. Fast game.

I think they used the one I posted for a couple of years, then switched to a sax-less version. I've not yet gotten my hands on the latter.

What I was thinking about doing is taking the clip that is linked above, and the clip I'm asking for (if I can get it), then creatively melding them together. It may or may not work.

Right now I wish I wasn't tone deaf, otherwise I'd slave to make a decent midi of it.

My station's even worse...they don't air the theme at all.  They go right from the Final Jeopardy reveal, and before Alex even shakes hands with everybody, they cut to the Sony logo, then run their own credits squeezed with promos.  I don't think they've played the end theme for years...and it's kind of annoying.

Would that be the CTV network in Canada?  Doesn't sound like they run the fee plugs, either.

On WABC (at least during the Jennings run when I was able to watch that affiliate), they would always drown out the theme with a Regis promo. At least WTEN doesn't do that, but both stations, and WPTZ I think end the show once the verse in the key of B ends (the one where you really can't hear any melody at all).

WLS always does a squeezeback during the credits to promo the 4 p.m. news that follows "J!"  The theme's muted or brought very low, but at least they're not playing the news theme instead.  I can deal with it, just like I can when WBBM squeezes back the "TPIR" plug list to promo their 11 a.m. news.

Ah! Can you record a decent audio clip and email it to me? Please? I'll be in your debt.
