Yeah, they are typically deep into the category, though I'm pretty sure they've been in the second slot a few times recently.

Someone uses this approach every couple of months, it's not really new. It is fairly annoying as a viewer, as it breaks up the flow of the game. It can sometimes kill a category too if it's a trick/gimmick one (spins on Before and After, etc) - start off with the $1000 without a good intro to the trick (a warm-up $200 question) and *crickets*. Overall it disrupts your thought processes - of course that's mostly the point, along with hitting the doubles.

The speaking over Trebek thing - THAT is sheer asshattery, IMO.
