You and PowerTool are spot on.
I was a contestant on Jeopardy! for the VERY LAST game of the season in 2012-13. We taped on a Tuesday, April 26. Game wasn't aired until Friday July 23rd.
They did tell us to bring extra clothes, which was good. 1st, my seersucker striped jacket did NOT work on TV. Had to switch to my blue blazer. 2nd, my Tabasco tie was considered 'advertising'; had to switch to a Monet print one.
A good friend flew out from DC to watch the taping; he got the first question in to Trebek that day during commercials (what is your favorite hockey team?).
I sat through the 1st 4 tapings; we had a lunch break after the 1st three and they treated the remaining players to lunch at the Sony Studios commissary.
And no, I did not win, but I did lose to a 6-time winner who made it to the Tournament of Champions and at the time was 9th highest on the money list.

I always wondered about how they film.
Accidentally down voted you. Sorry

I'm extremely envious. I've tried out for about the last 8 years, but I haven't made it to the interview portion. The most questions I've got on the test was 37/50. It's just so damn heavy on literature and the other arts, and I hate that stuff. Any test advice would be appreciated.
