Harry Friedman, executive producer of CBS' Jeopardy!, has created a Web extension of the game designed to give TV stations that air the veteran quiz show a little more interactive content as well as a promotional boost. "The whole idea behind it is to form a very meaningful bond between the show and our affiliates and their Websites," says Friedman, who has run both Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune since 1999 and was inducted into B&C's Hall of Fame last month. "This is actually in response to what we were hearing from stations about how important their Websites are and how they are always looking for original content." The game, called Jeopardy! EXP (for 'extended play'), resides on TV stations' Websites. It's a simple version of the on-air game, with two rounds of six questions each and one final-Jeopardy! question. The categories are derived from that day's broadcast with questions written by the show's staff.
