In 2020, Claire McNear's ANSWERS IN THE FORM OF QUESTIONS first
chronicled Jeopardy! at the precipice of change. In 2021, it was
McNear's reporting on the dramatic race to replace Alex Trebek that
resulted in the dismissal of Mike Richards just a day after he took
over for the legendary host. In the updated paperback edition, a
new afterword breaks down the Richards saga and how his day as host
unfolded behind the scenes-with many more updates throughout about
the rise of new super-champions like Matt Amodio and Amy Schneider.
For all its change, Jeopardy! remains an institution. ANSWERS IN
THE FORM OF QUESTIONS takes readers backstage at Jeopardy!'s Culver
City studio, exploring Trebek's life and legacy, the high-stakes
search for a new host, and how the show's writers and producers put
together the nightly game. Readers will travel to bar-trivia
showdowns with Jeopardy!'s biggest winners and training sessions
with trivia whizzes prepping for their shot onstage. And they'll
discover new tales of the show's most notable moments-like the time
the Clue Crew almost slid off a glacier-and learn how celebrity
cameos and Saturday Night Live spoofs helped build a television
mainstay. ANSWERS IN THE FORM OF QUESTIONS looks to the past-and
the future-to explain what Jeopardy! really is: a game, a show, and
a beloved tradition.
