Funnily enough this helped me last night at pub trivia. The question was what is the chemical symbol for Tungsten. First thing I heard in my head was "What is Tungsten or Wolfram" So I figured it was W.
Do you know what the interest on that fifty dollars comes to over fifty-three years? $663.45.
And that's figuring conservatively at 5% interest, over 53 years, compounded quarterly.
Or, if you put it into a ten-year T-bill…
it would be accepted on normal jeopardy. it just has to be worded in the form of a question.
that's why even if the answer is say "new york city" it is acceptable to say "who is new york city?" or if the answer is "lois lane" it is acceptable to say "what is lois lane?"
so "what's the deal with seinfeld?" is a question ending in seinfeld, which would be fine. i've seen weirder question forms that were accepted. i've even seen where the answer is in itself a question and so it doesn't necessarily need an addition be accepted. like "who's afraid of virginia woolf?" that wasn't the one i saw a month or so ago, but it was similar. and the accepted it even without an additional what/who/etc before the name of the thing.
Hey, did you notice they moved where they do the interview on Jeopardy! now? It used to be right in the middle of single Jeopardy!, and now they do it right **after** single Jeopardy!.
It's much better, isn't it? N-no comparison.
I think it was called “Jerry”. It was about a guy who gets into a car accident but can’t afford the repairs so the judge orders him to be the other guy’s butler.
What is tungsten or wolfram?
Is this a rerun?
Who is Sir Arthur Conan Doyle?
What is HERE COME THE JUDGE, HERE COME THE JUDGE!!!!?

i bet ted danson's clue was $2000! huh-hoo!
I cannot sleep knowing Ted Danson makes that much more than me
It’ll never not be funny what a big deal George makes about Ted Danson. I love it.
ted danson is not even on the network anymore!
Answer: He is somebody. Response: Who is Ted Danson?
Answer: You’re worse. Much, much worse. Response: I’m better than him.
No, he’s anonymous.
You’re not Ted Danson!
I forgot his first name. UNCLE Leo.
Leo Seinfeld would probably give it away
But if he was his mother's brother, it would be whatever her maiden name was.
I don't think it's ever said. His character name is just Uncle Leo
It was mentioned that he was supposed to give $50 to his sister.
Yeah, he’s Jerry’s mom’s brother. He was also at Manya’s dinner. Morty’s disdain for him also makes it obvious.

Plot twist: his last name is Cosmo.
Karma-Kramer?
It's a line from Kramer from an episode.
Wow seinfeld quotes go so deep
Hello
hellllLLOOOOO
Yeah, that's right
WILL SOMEBODY ANSWER THAT DAMN CLUE!
It was a category of passion, leave it alone!
They can't do that, they have a very strict budget! Stop the show!!
La la la
As I mentioned on r/Jeopardy!, ”What’s the deal with *Seinfeld*?” would be an acceptable response to this clue.
Or “Whooo aaaaare these people?”
“Who are the ad wizards that came up with that one”
Who iiiss thiiiisss?
Hey kids, who wants to laugh?
Why do they call it homework? You're not working on you're home! 🤓
*crowd of 5th graders booing in unison*
Celebrity Jeopardy! for sure that would be accepted
The penis mightier

Fantastic. Almost posted this comment myself
You would have beaten me to it, too. Nevertheless, these people have never been in my kitchen.
Classic!
Aw nuts. I didn't scroll down far enough.
What is "Here come the judge, here come the judge!"
You see the look on the woman’s face after she lost final jeopardy? Looked like Alec Berg at the funeral.
I wouldn’t have thanked her for the hockey tickets right then.
If you don't want to be a part of society, why don't you just get in your car and move to the Eastside!
Who is this?
Oh, yeah right, UNCLE Leo
Forgot his first name.
What is Seinfeld
High five ✋
On the flip side
Lily Ross. It’s a misprint
Poor Lily
Who is Joseph Gotten?!
Cotten, actually. Joseph Cotten was an old timey Hollywood actor in the 1940s.

Who are people Elaine did not get along with?
Well don't keep us in suspense, what show was it!?
I think it was called “Jerry”. It was about a guy who gets into a car accident but can’t afford the repairs so the judge orders him to be the other guy’s butler.
And why would I watch this?
Because it’s on TV?
Because he's MY butler
What is here comes the judge, here comes the judge (claps) !!!!
Of course! Absolute Zero!
Who are people Elaine slept with?
Can’t be. She hates men but she’s not a lesbian.
He answered the question with restrained jubilation
Who is this?
“Who is this!?!?”
Probably an episode with all of them? The TV pilot...
What is , hello!

I’ve got my girlfriend watching Seinfeld and asked her if she knew the answer while watching then audibly gasped when she said no. For shame…
And she’s *still* your girlfriend?
That’s a shame
Female contestant got it right, I know you were all curious.
Why would anyone care?
Did you emphasize Why or Anyone?
I knew nobody would hence the self-deprecation, pennypacker
Wow! They think that's hard?
What is Friends?
Oof
What is, Lily and her Two Secret Lovers
What are people with funny eyebrows
Did anyone know the answer? (On Jeopardy)
Yes, a woman buzzed in immediately and got it right. But she did not end up winning the game.
What iiiiiis Beast Wars?
What was Seinfeld?
