ENTERTAINMENT

Jeopardy champion James Holzhauer is sharing some behind-the-scenes insights after years of competing on the game show.

After fan backlash to recent seasons, Holzhauer credited some of Jeopardy‘s issues to the high staff turnover, and shared what he would change about the iconic show.

During a recent interview with TV Insider, Holzhauer revealed his suggestion to improve Jeopardy.

“There has been a lot of turnover backstage, I will say. The whole production team has turned over, so you kind of see some of the things were lost when they changed hands there.”

Though he still thinks Jeopardy is a “great show,” he admitted, “It could use a little tweaking here and there. Some of the question writing could be a little sharper than it has been.”

Holzhauer may be one of the better-qualified Jeopardy contestants to offer criticism as he completed a 32-game winning streak in 2019. Most recently, Holzhauer won the two-week Jeopardy! Masters tournament
