About halfway through Wednesday’s Jeopardy! Episode: Matt, a player, asked for the $400 clue. “title that completes the rhyme”category, which was all songs.
Ken Jennings reads the lyrics of Taylor Swift song while trying not to sing them. “And I’m just like oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh, you need to just stop, like can you just not, step on my gown?”
Matt was confused by the clue and responded with silence.
He wasn’t the only one to not know the answer, though, as the other two contestants were also stumped, though they had on smiles amid their silence.
After the allotted time was up, Ken told them: “I really wish this was Johnny [Gilbert]These are your guidelines.
“This is You Need to Calm Down by Taylor Swift.”
Despite the clue’s lowest value and being 11-time Grammy winner it was considered the easiest. However, no one was able get it right.
This upset fans, who couldn’t believe that not a single player was able to come up with the correct response.
One viewer was annoyed and tweeted: “Everyone who makes it on to #Jeopardy clearly has a crown in my book, but I cannot calm down when there is a triple stumper Taylor Swift clue.”
Another shocked user of social media wrote: “Taylor goes unanswered at the top of the board!”
A third is the whole thing “inexcusable.”
Matt’s reaction to Taylor’s mistake had at most made viewers happy.
He’d not only given the correct title response with NSYNC’s Bye Bye Bye, but he’d also included the boyband’s infamous hand-movement choreography.
One fan noted that while this gave them joy, it didn’t excuse his inability to get the T-Swift clue correct.
The Twitter user wrote: “Points: doing the choreo for bye bye bye.
“Immediately lost points: no one knew You Need to Calm Down.”
Fans were surprised that Alfred couldn’t come up with the right answer after he had so much experience in game shows.
During the episode, a fan realized the New York assistant dean at Yale is a game show gargantuan.
One Twitter user wrote: “I recall Alfred in the middle lever.
“He was on Millionaire several years ago when he won $250K.”
“He later appeared on Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader when we won $100K,”They claimed. “I wonder how well he will do on #Jeopardy!”
Another viewer responded, “Wow, Alfred living my dream.”

He completed 13 out of 14 questions. With all his lifelines exhausted, he elected to walk away with a quarter-million dollars.
