Taylor Swift earned her a special spotlight on Wednesday night’s (Jan. 24) episode of Jeopardy!

According to Billboard, the pop star’s catchy catalog of music and recent tour inspired an entire round’s categories with the following titles: “Love Story,” “Our Song,” “Bad Blood,” “Shake It Off,” “We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together” and “The Errors Tour.”

While Swifties were eager to sing their praises for the trivia show on social media, Swift’s influence only went so far as the names of each category, as the actual questions did not pertain to her.

“I FEEL SO ALIVE,” one fan wrote on X (the platform formerly known as Twitter), while another claimed that they “could not be happier” while tuning in last night. Someone also considered it “Reason #467 to watch Jeopardy!“

A fan of both the Ken Jennings-led program and Swift’s music wrote that their “two personalities collide,” while another deemed the round to have been created “just for” them. The feat was cheekily lauded by one viewer, who wrote, “I guess she’s really made it now.”

However, not everyone was on board with last night’s round. One critic deemed the episode “unwatchable,” as another said, “I’m gonna throw up.” Someone even likened Swift’s presence on the trivia show to her “taking over” the NFL.

One Swiftie clapped back, saying that only “some idiot” would have something negative to say about the round.

Swift recently inspired a Celebrity Jeopardy! category in December titled “Also A Taylor Swift Song,” surprisingly stumping contestants Kyra Sedgwick, Amanda Seales and Mo Rocca. Her lyrics even provided viewers with the tricky answer about “Literary Groups” to a Final Jeopardy! clue in May that ultimately went unanswered on air.

Jeopardy! airs on weeknights at 7/6 c. Check out their website for your local listings.
