I love it when Jeopardy comes up with categories that are so out there that they are awesome.
Case in point, on Pop Culture Jeopardy, they asked the contestants to answer clues about A Dark View of the Film.
What is the category about? It would be like, “This young girl is showing early signs of schizophrenia because the voices in her head are telling her what to do.” The answer would be Inside/Out.
That is the lame one I came up with. However, the writers did a better job than I did. And Colin Jost had so much fun reading the answers.
How sick are the contestants? They got all of the questions correct! How did you do?
Pop Culture Jeopardy had an interesting category on the show last week. Colin Jost wanted to see how well the contestants knew these five people who were “Unalived on Film.”
When I saw the category title, I thought it was going to be about Zombies. If it was, then I would’ve been the brains in the bunch, and the Walking Dead would have a lot to eat. But, alas, it was not. Instead, it was about people who were killed in movies. And because of that, the Zombies walked on by me because there were no brains for them to munch on.
I thought that this version of the game show was going to be easy, but it is not. That is so not fair.
Colin Jost comes off as a nice guy from Staten Island, but he showed signs of being a true New Yorker during yesterday’s Weekend Update on Saturday Night Live.
Last week on Wheel of Fortune, a contestant accidentally knocked Ryan Seacrest during a winning hug.
Well, Jost, who hosts his own game show, Pop Culture Jeopardy, had a message for anyone who plans to do that to him. Don’t you dare do that to him because he has a gun behind his podium. So if you win, celebrate with the two people you are playing with, not Mr. Scarlett Johansson.
Colin Jost has been working on Saturday Night Live for 20 years, and he is married to Scarlett Johansson. So, you would think that he would have learned a thing or two about acting. But it does not appear that he has.
Case in point: The host of Pop Culture Jeopardy was given the category Movie Quotes Done Low-Key to read to the contestants. He read it blander than the inside of Kim Kardashian’s house.
It is like when someone reads the lyrics to a song with a melody and asks you what song it is. I guess that is the point of the category, but I still feel like he could have done more with it. So, I hope his wife shows him how to do it correctly. For some reason, I am thinking of Arby’s.
Before Colin Jost was hosting the game show Pop Culture Jeopardy, he failed miserably on The Weakest Link. How cute was the 19-year-old in that 2001 episode?
