Mayim Bialik on Jeopardy! winning streaks: "I think it’s kind of like the stock market"

TheWrap

Bialik, who never got to meet Amy Schneider because Ken Jennings was Jeopardy! guest-host during Schneider's 40-game winning streak, tells The Wrap “I couldn’t tell anyone that I didn’t meet Amy." She adds of the recent win streaks: “I think it’s kind of like the stock market. Like, if you look at it over a period of five years, 10 years, I think there’s probably more of these kinds of trends. Do I think people are smarter now? No. Is there more information available that never was before? Absolutely,” she says. “I think it’s been a really fun and special time. But you know, that’s also the fun of ‘Jeopardy!’ You never know what’s going to happen. Someone can seem like they’re winning, winning, winning, and anything can happen — they can have a tummy ache. And that kind of changes the course of their day.
