In the experience of both myself and my wife, "Jeopardy" taped in real time with one exception; even though everything else takes the time it takes on the broadcast, players get as much time as they need to calculate their Final Jeopardy wagers. In my second game, one of the other players had a discrepancy between what he had written down and what he told the PAs he was wagering. They have to double-check it so that someone doesn't say, "Yes, I know I wrote down $15,000, but I actually meant to bet $15,500."
