I never get home from work in time to see anything in syndication. For anyone that watches, is he at least interesting to watch?

Watching him is funny as hell, I've seen him on TV in the breakroom at work sometimes.

He is unreal. I mean seriously, the stuff he knows and how he can win time after time (and not just win. Most of the time he crushes his opponents). I watch him when I get home in time to see it. He leaves me in amazement of his ability.

I've seen it a couple times since he's been reigning - after the first 10 questions it gets boring. It's amazing yes, but boring because you know he's going to answer and get it right.

As far as him knowing so much stuff, that really isn't a big deal. All contestants are given study books that have all the information for the questions that could be asked.

I was listening to the radio a couple of weeks ago, and the had this lady on that competed and lost (obviously) to this guy. What she was saying wasn't necessarily that he was so much smarter than the rest of th contestants, but that he was exceptionally good at timing when to buzz in. Apparently there is some kind of delay from the time the question is finished, to when you can buzz in, and he is apparently excellent at timing that delay.

Yuo have to wait for the light to go on before you can buzz in
