One Jeopardy! contestant made quite the impression on viewers and on social media. But it wasn't for her gameplay.
People liked her all-too-relatable expressions as she clutched her buzzer with intensity while competing on the popular game show.
The quirky player everyone was buzzing about was Julia Markham Cameron, an attorney from Brooklyn, New York, who visibly reacted strongly to the questions being asked as well as the answers she was giving.

Even the show's current interim host, Mayim Bialik, found herself chuckling as she observed Cameron's wide range of facial expressions.
A video montage highlighting all of Cameron's animated wincing, focus and tentativeness sparked pure joy and resonated with viewers who pretty much felt the same on every step of her journey.
