JEOPARDY! On Thursday, participant Matthew Marcus won his first match after viewers noted he was especially pleasant to listen to.
Internet aficionados want the two of them to perform “Jeopardy! ASMR” together due to the new champ’s smooth British accent, which has drawn similarities to Ray LaLonde.
Patti Palmer, a one-day champion, competed against Anita Perala, a product management consultant from Jersey City, New Jersey, and Matthew, an Oregon-born software developer.
Patti, a retired teacher and bookseller from Tulsa, Oklahoma, put an end to 3-day champion Jake DeArruda in the previous episode.
Jake made obvious signals with his hands and face while performing, which upset some demanding clients.
The New Englander frequently sat with his head on his hand while in a contemplative position and performed a mock shot at the basket that he turned into a bow in his introduction before being benched last night.
In light of his unfavourable reception and the mercilessly cruel comments he received, Jeopardy! Spectators were eager to find out what would happen next.
Patti, the grandma who defeated him and had gorgeous purple hair, played well despite not being able to secure a second victory.
While this was going on, onlookers began to notice Matthew, the newcomer on the stage’s extreme left, because of his distinctive British accent as he began to gather information.
Another yearned, “Jeopardy ASMR?!”
A third user envisioned what it might be like and blended the game show with the craze for meditative music videos:
“Leans into camera and whispers gently into left ear ‘I’d like to make it a …’whispers into right ear’ ‘true daily double…’.”
“Voice? You mean the British accent?” buzzed in a fourth.
“What an impressive debut for Matthew, both in terms of buzzer skill and willingness to bet big. Here’s hoping he goes far!” wrote a fifth.
