Some game shows only ask that contestants be 18 years old and not have appeared on another game show in the past year. Other programs have more rigorous standards, such as a minimum age limit of 21 or a refusal to contestants who've appeared on more than 2 shows in the past 5-10 years. You can find out more about a specific game show's eligibility requirements by reading through the Rules or Frequently Asked Questions section on the show's official website. Under no circumstances are you allowed to be affiliated with the show's production company, parent or syndication network, or any of its sponsors or advertisers. Being a current employee of any of the organizations connected to the show, or being a friend or family member of a current employee, may also disqualify you from appearing.

There, you'll find a complete list of the show's eligibility requirements, as well as an application form to appear on the show as a contestant. This form will ask you for you name, home address, age, and any other information needed to confirm that you meet the show's eligibility requirements. Some networks also run a short broadcast segment at the end of the show featuring a telephone number or mailing address that you can contact to apply as a contestant.

You'll have the best chance of passing your test if you possess a general knowledge of a wide range of topics. It's recommended that you take advantage of the many free practice tests offered on the Jeopardy! website to prepare yourself for the real deal.

Start the date out on the right foot by showing up 5 minutes early. Showing up on time shows your date that you respect their time and that being with them is important to you. If your rendezvous is in an unfamiliar part of town, leave yourself a little extra time in case there is traffic, difficult parking, or another unforeseen problem. If you are running late, let them know. Give them a call or a text explaining the situation and giving a rough estimate of when they should expect you to arrive. Put on clean, unwrinkled clothes for your date. Even if the date is casual, nix athletic wear, such as gym shorts, and dress in a polished way. Putting effort into your appearance lets your date know that you respect them and that this date is important to you. For a feminine look, wear a nice dress and some pumps for a fancier date, or a nice blouse and a dark pair of jeans for something a little more casual. For a masculine look, try chinos and a collared shirt. Leather accessories, such as a nice belt, can dress up untorn jeans, too. If you want to make yourself as kissable as possible for your date, be sure your breath is fresh and that you don't have any body odor. It's also helpful to apply an unflavored lip balm for soft lips. Brush your teeth and tongue twice a day to keep your mouth ready for kissing. Always wear deodorant. This is especially important if you sweat when you're nervous on first date. If your date says that they do not want to kiss or pulls away from you, don't force them to kiss. It may be that they like you but are not ready for physical intimacy yet. If someone turns you down for a kiss, you might say, "No problem. I respect that."
Summary: Be on time. Dress nicely. Practice good oral and personal hygiene. Respect your date's boundaries.
