Why?

Some people would suggest that the "dumbing down" of material on Jeopardy is enough of an insult to their intelligence.

Maybe you want some assistance, but I personally have no problems looking at three numbers and quickly discerning which one is the largest.

I can tell which one is the largest at the end of the show, Chris.

 Then obvioiusly it doesn't need to be flashing, does it?

gameshowguy2000:
It looks better when it flashes, like on PYL and TPIR.

 On a "flashy" show like PYL or TPiR, I would agree. On Jeopardy, which is supposed to be a more "dignified" game show, it would look cheesy and lame.

Let's put it another way: What would you think if J! debuted it's new season, the set was CHOCK FULL of chase lights, the podiums made noise when people rang in, and there were bells and applause after every right answer?

If you think all of that would be Just Keen, then I think we've found the fundamental difference in our opinion, and I wish you and your green plaid leisure suit all the best. :)
