I've been a longtime Jeopardy fan but I like it better in NY when it's on after the evening news. In Hawaii it's on in the late afternoon.

i like them both, but i have to admit to making a point to tune in wof. i just find it mindless entertainment and after a long day at work, i like to kick back with a scotch and just stare at the tube. it recharges me a bit and then i am good to go.

Yeah, Vanna lucked out. WoF is fun once every couple of years. Jeopardy is fun every night of the year.

Do you mean any show in general or just out of those two?
In general: A tie between "Home & Away" and "Neighbours" (two Aussie soaps that have been going waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too long although I must admit i LOVED H&A when I was a kid).
Out of the two: I can't really pick one because we don't have either anymore. But when we did have them I loved WoF but never got into Jeopardy. I loved the original Australian WoF but the network 'updated' it, getting rid of the longest-running host John Burgess, and eventually the original letter-turner Adriana Xenides. The updated version was CRAP!

If WoF does go, I hope Vanna White's post-WoF career and life turn out better than Adriana's did - such a sad ending.

Millionaire now. Its time has passed....
Countdown is still cool tho.
I loved Countdown when I was in the UK. We have it here in Oz now, only started a few months ago. Our format replicates the UK version but we gave it the rather dull title "Letters and Numbers" (a rough translation of the original French title "Des chiffres et des lettres").

I wish Jeapordy had a who's hung category. No joke there. As for the poster concerned about Vanna White after WOF would be off the air, the woman is a self-made millionaire. Hell, she even wrote a book back in 1987 for God's sakes. Vanna has no worries even if the show is still on or off the air. She'll retire a richer woman after the show. Her kids don't have to work either. Mommy gets millions every year...working or not working. Trust me, Vanna is secured for life. Same for Pat, too.
