I think what makes 'Jeopardy!' special is that, among all the quiz and game shows out there, ours tends to encourage learning.

The Final Jeopardy! questions seem to be, by design, things you can't know. And so it's not about who knows them, but who can figure them out in thirty seconds.

I believe the 'Jeopardy!' test is more difficult than being a contestant on the program.

You can never get enough of 'Jeopardy.'

Why is it trivia? People call it trivia because they know nothing and they are embarrassed about it.

Mysteries I read for fun, so I will probably never write one, for fear of spoiling the fun.

The enduring appeal of mystery stories for all of us is that the world is a pretty confusing place. There's a lot of really unanswered things, and perhaps the scariest notion would be that there might not always be answers out there for us.

Well, I refer to 'Celebrity Jeopardy ' as the short-bus 'Jeopardy,' because it is a lot easier. Like, there was a whole column basically naming stores in New York.

Well, if you're writing a thriller, you have to have your character in mortal jeopardy on page 1 or it's not a thriller.
