In fact, I've got kind of a sinking feeling that the country will be hearing about this guy for a while longer. He's already at nine wins and counting, and the preseason promos compared him to some of the legendary champs of the past, up to and including Ken Jennings. So he'll probably put up quite a string before he's finished.
Or maybe he'll lose his next game. Who knows? Anyway, his goofball personality has abruptly divided Jeopardy watchers. He's either "a delightful cross between Willy Wonka and a wacky Hogwarts professor" or "awkward, arrogant and even casually racist for a joke he allegedly made about the Dalai Lama."
He is certainly not a bland know-it-all who just quietly wins his games and doesn't bother anybody. At this point he hasn't gotten close to Chu-level unbearable, so his antics are probably good for the show. Let's see how far he gets up the ladder of Jeopardy success.
