JEOPARDY fans slammed champion Mattea Roach and the new contestants today for ALL getting the “most obvious question” wrong.

Host Ken Jennings left all three players stumped with a question about Marvel’s The Eternals.

From the category “the cast of the movie”, Ken delivered the question: “2021: Gemma Chan and Salma Hayek deal with a pressing planetary issue.”

All three were silent while Mattea squinted and bit her lip as she tried to think of the answer, which was worth $2,000.

47-year-old Ken then revealed: “They are two of The Eternals.”

Despite not getting this question right, the Canadian Jeopardy! champ still finished in first place with $17,281.

However, some fans on Twitter were in disbelief that no contestants guessed the movie question correctly.

One wrote: “$2,000 would’ve been mine if I were on Jeopardy! this evening, purely for being obsessed with Marvel, and none of the contestants knew the answer.”

Another raged in all capitals: “NOBODY GOT THE ETERNALS QUESTION RIGHT ON JEOPARDY.”

A third chimed in: “I know The Eternals flopped because it was just a $2000 answer on Jeopardy!.”

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

After sailing through her 11th win, it’s possible that Mattea might be heading to fast-food joint In-N-Out Burger, where she previously revealed she likes to celebrate her Jeopardy! victories.

And while she’s there, she might bump into Ken, who’s been a regular at the same restaurant for nearly two decades.

The host revealed his post-Jeopardy! haunt in response to a Twitter image of Mattea which showed her tucking into a burger and fries at the Californian burger spot.

Ken then  the image with the words: “If this is the In-N-Out on Venice, I’ve been going here after Jeopardy! off and on for 18 years. Solid choice.”

YES HE KEN

Jeopardy! fans are very keen on Ken, and many would like to see the Washington native take on permanent presenting duties, as opposed to Mayim Bialik.

Viewers have taken to Twitter as his episodes have aired to make their views known.
