Larissa’s Last Stand
May 29th, 2008
Well, I guess the May ratings sweeps period is over, now that Larissa Kelly is no longer on Jeopardy!, and my hit count will fall to its usual level. It was sad seeing Larissa lose Wednesday night, because if she hasn’t been the best known person in America for the past week, she’s probably been the most liked. But hey, if she had to lose, at least it was to a bald guy. 
Here is a 20-minute video of Larissa’s complete seventh, and last, appearance on Jeopardy!, until we see her in the Tournament of Champions. To me she seemed to be getting tired towards the end, and that’s certainly understandable.
Wannabe Jeopardy! contestants would do well to heed Larissa’s advice.
I think the main advice I would have for future contestants is to practice playing past games at www.j-archive.com, and to not look too much at the scores while playing, unless you need to make a wager. The questions come so fast that looking up and keeping track of how you’re doing can be very distracting.
