Commenting on these as I
finally watched all of the tourney eps (plus some - I am now half through Julia's run).

Heh. My wife couldn't stand him the first time around. I kinda liked his cockiness, though I think he did tone it down a little for this tourney.

I liked the all ins by Roger even though it didn't work out. Guy had 2 chances to win the tournament and couldn't get either. I was surprised Ken and Brad missed the Oscar FJ on the first day. Thought Foster and Hopkins both winning BA was common Oscar trivia.

I think Roger realized that he had to do that to have a serious shot, especially the second time. Totally justified in betting it all.
Trebek even joked about Ken hosting in the future, didn't he? I think he's be great, but Brad almost seems better suited for host duties. I like Ken better, but Brad seems to have the host voice/presentation/Hollywood thing down better.
