My roommate said his family watched it at 7 not 7 30pm

I thought he was just messing with me but in Pittsburgh it did air BEFORE Wheel , that's just wrong .

No wrong is when I moved to the central time zone and it came on at 4, with wheel at 6:30.

NYC checking in. It’s always been, and still currently is, at 7pm with Wheel at 7:30

[-]

In the NYC market, it was on at seven followed by the wheel! It still is!

Yeah, there’s a whole part of a Jeopardy on tv article on wiki talking about its NYC history:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Broadcast_of_Jeopardy!?wprov=sfti1#Early_years

I’ll add that on Long Island there was a station that was allowed to air Jeopardy and Wheel at 6pm. Until CBS bought it they were useful for airing syndicated shows at convenient timeslots.

7pm in our market too, before Wheel. The opposite feels weird to me. Gotta watch Wheel after Jeopardy, that way you redeem yourself after feeling stupid for half an hour.

Funkopedia@reddit

It's always the opposite for me. I do well in Jeopardy, can never solve anything in Wheel. "I've never heard that phrase before in my life"

Chicago has Jeopardy! at 3:30pm and Wheel at 6:30 with a bunch of local and national news in between.

[-]

YinzaJagoff@reddit

Yes this.

It was really weird for me seeing Jeopardy on so late as I’m from Chicago and was used to seeing it on in the afternoon.

[-]

Years later, I moved into the heart of the giant beast, Houston, Jeopardy was on at 1530, wheel at 1830. Then in 2008, about halfway through the year, when the program "the doctors" premiered, they aired it at 1500 (3:00 p.m.), and bumped Jeopardy all the way to 2235, (10:35 p.m.)

New Orleans had Jeopardy at 430 pm and Wheel at 630 pm.

That’s really messed up

actionerror@reddit

Yeah I thought it’s always Jeopardy at 7 then Wheel of Fortune at 7:30.

Ir was Wheel for my grandmother. If she was visiting our house and it turned 7pm it didn't matter what my sister and I were watching she'd just change the channel on us without warning. Honestly I have loved game shows since an early age so I didn't care that much. I still love Wheel and especially Jeopardy. I even tried out for Jeopardy once.

In Pittsburgh it was 7pm Jeopardy and 7:30 wheel of fortune, and broadcasted on NBC not CBS

[-]

mexicantruffle@reddit

Bro, Wheel and Jeopardy every night for me.

[-]

harlembornnbred@reddit

7 in nyc and I still watch almost everyday

[-]

Select_Asparagus3451@reddit (OP)

I wish I had cable still. Watching it on demand doesn’t feel the same.

[-]

harlembornnbred@reddit

I agree. It's something about the broadcast of it that adds to the enjoyment

I look at that picture and I can hear Regis complaining about how his buzzer isn't working correctly.

There was an old jeopardy computer game, might have been on floppy disk, that i wish I could find a screenshot of. The default contestants were named Dick, Rod and Peter (or some similar variation). I remember wondering how excited the programmers must have been to slip that by qa. Or maybe everyone was in on it.

[-]

wanderingzac@reddit

I remember that, I liked that game, memory unlocked!

aenflex@reddit

I watched this with my mother.

What is, it was on at 5:00 pm in Lincoln, Nebraska, Alex?

I miss when TV used to be comforting; even if it was just a delusion.

I don't like new-guy that hosts now

[-]

Sisselpud@reddit

Due to my proximity to the Canadian border, it was on a two different times on CBC and NBC in my market. So if you wanted to look like a genius and had no morals, one could watch the earlier broadcast and then just dominate in from of people on the second viewing.
