Eagle-eyed Jeopardy! fans spot editing error & major ‘clue’ that portion of new episode was reshot

JEOPARDY! fans did a Daily Double-take after spotting a major editing error on Wednesday.

A scorecard "clue" gave away that portions of the March 28 episode were reshot - and accidentally revealed who won.

Mayim Bialik is hosting Season 38 of the storied game show when former contestant Ken Jennings isn't filling in.

While fans have already slammed the banter-heavy Big Bang theory alum as "not funny" and a "terrible" host, there seemingly was another issue with Monday's show.

Eagle-eyed fans realized that after the Daily Double and halfway through, center contestant Aime Walker had her score changed to her final score - from 4,400 down to 1,000.

The "1,000" briefly shown - as well as contestant Jackie Kelly's soon-to-be winning score - caused fans to go wild over the episode-spoiling editing gaffe.

A thread saw many fans buzz in with their anger.

One user began: "Anyone notice this oopsie during Double Jeopardy today where they briefly missed Amie's score?"

The Arizona-based attorney lost to returning contestant Jackie Kelly, who was seated left, and fans fumed as she also had her score changed to her final score simultaneously.

Another wrote: "What's even weirder is this happened in the middle of double jeopardy and they have Jackie's score incorrectly set as what she ENDED the game with... "

A third wrote: "Oh man... I noticed Amie, but didn't notice Jackie. I wonder if it was a reshoot."

While a fourth alleged: "Yes, this was a reshoot done after the game! I think Mayim may have omitted a word or two reading the clue the first time around, so it was redone after."

Another noticed: "During the credits, there was a small extra notice that said 'due to technical difficulties, a portion of this game was re-created.'"

Someone else wrote: "Yeah this is a very rare occurrence. Hopefully this doesn’t happen again."

Alleged reshoots are one thing but they typically don't spoil the episode, and fans are already unhappy with one host.

MIXED ON MAYIM

After the tragic death of longtime host Alex Trebek, who passed away from stage four pancreatic cancer on November 8, 2020, Ken and Mayim took over as presenters of the popular game show.

Mayim has already gotten mixed reviews.

One fan wrote on Twitter yesterday: “Ken Jennings is by far the best host! Please keep him and leave Mayim Bialik for some other show.”

Another agreed: “Don't you think it's time to name Ken Jennings as the permanent host? Bialik has overstayed her welcome.”

A third decreed: “She is not funny, she has more money than most TV personalities, she endorses a terrible product and should concentrate on other things rather than hosting Jeopardy which she is terrible at. Please bring back Ken Jennings!”

And a fourth: "Hire Ken Jennings to host Jeopardy full-time and STOP THIS CHARADE."

They stepped up to the joint role following a brief stint from Mike Richards.

Mike resigned after fans slammed him for his past "misogynistic" comments.

New episodes of the classic game show air weekdays at 7pm EST on ABC.

Previous seasons are available to stream on Netflix with a subscription, and Jeopardy's 38th season will end on July 29, 2022.
