Judging from his comments on the Late Show last night, probably not.

Plus Kate Middleton being adorable, mind-reading headphones, and the bus ride from hell.
Haha. Even Jeopardy hates Taylor Swift.

WHO is Leonard Cooper, and how can we get more of him??
Well played, Alex Trebek.
The question did feature a photo of Beck himself.
Did your mother give you forget-me-now pills, Trebek? How can you not pronounce “Fünke”?
“Don’t say another word!” On tonight’s installment of the “Jeopardy!” College Championship, host Alek Trebek interviewed Duke senior Greer Mackebee about his unusual hobby of building concrete canoes. “How do you get into that?” Trebek asked. Mackebee’s response—and Trebek’s reaction to it—was solid gold.
Oh, come ON, Kate! It’s bad enough that you can’t tell Adele apart from Amy Winehouse, but your juxtaposition of Winehouse (who is dead) with “Rolling in the Deep” (the Adele song whose title coincidentally sounds like something a dead person would be doing) on tonight’s “Jeopardy!” made things all the more awkward.

Reddit user Guantes asked Ken Jennings to sign his book, Brainiac, with an illustration of Jennings “locked in mortal combat with Watson.” He sure delivered. View Image ›
Jeopardy, I see what you did there! It must be fun to be the person creating the categories. View Image ›
Via extreme nerdery, apparently. It terrifies me that the only thing standing between us and a robot apocalypse is geeky Linux jokes. (Borepatch, via Neatorama.) View Image ›
The correct answer is “Kitty Galore.” Aw, I totally feel embarrassed with her. Watch Video ›
A baseball bat?
Emasculating?
IBM’s Watson super-computer won his debut round of Jeopardy tonight, taking home $77,147 in winnings. Ken Jennings (who came in 2nd with $24,000) wasted no time cutting all ties with humanity. View List ›
Basically the only question Watson the computer got wrong on Jeopardy. There’s hope for humans, maybe????? View Image ›
Jeopardy categories Watson cannot answer. Not so elementary now, is it Watson? View Image ›
The super computer Watson premiered last night on Jeopardy against Ken Jennings and Brad Rutter. They ended the night with a tie between Watson and Rutter. Laugh at these ridiculous Jeopardy moments while you can… (Before robots take over the human race.) View List ›
