Netflix Quietly Removes All of 'Jeopardy!' From Netflix and Fans Are Not OK
07/29/2021 01:41 pm EDT
"WHY IS NETFLIX REMOVING JEOPARDY," one person asked. "HOW ELSE AM I SUPPOSED TO LET MY GRANDPARENTS KNOW THAT I KNEW ROCKEFELLER WAS THE FOUNDER AND LEADER OF THE STANDARD OIL COMPANY???"
"I'm shattered!" tweeted one Jeopardy! fan. "[Jeopardy!] has been removed from [Netflix] Australia. It's been a nightly ritual, just like when I was a kid. Anyone know if it airs elsewhere?"
"If there was a benevolent god why would the spider statue leave UNC and Jeopardy leave Netflix in the same week," one fan questioned.
One person stated on Twitter that they were "NOT happy" with the show's removal. In a tweet, that fan wrote, "Jeopardy is being taken off Netflix and I'm NOT happy about it."
"[Netflix] please fix the Jeopardy! issue. My 2yr old needs his fix. Don't be responsible for the potential withdrawal. Sadly, he hasn't learned self-control and that onus falls on me," tweeted one person. "Also, if you wouldn't mind, keeping [Jeopardy!] available longer? Idk if he can handle that type of rejection at such a young age. The repercussions of such could be detrimental to his mental. DO IT FOR THE KIDS! Please."
Jeopardy! however, is not the only beloved game show set to depart the streaming service, as Wheel of Fortune is also preparing to make its exit from the platform. Reacting to the news, one person tweeted, "Netflix taking off both Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy! is a sick joke."
At this time, it remains unclear if Netflix has plans to add more Jeopardy! in the future. The streamer has not addressed the show's abrupt Thursday morning departure. Wheel of Fortune, meanwhile, is scheduled to leave the streaming library on Saturday, Aug. 14.
