We know that both Drake and Alex Trebek are Canadians and have curly hair, and that is pretty much all the two men have in common. This is something we found out on Jeopardy when the game show read this question, “This Canadian rapped, ‘Jumpman, Jumpman, Jumpman, them boys up to somethin’, Uh uh uh, I think I need some Robitussin.'”
That is the Whitest thing we have seen on television since a Donald Trump rally a few hours ago. Seriously, that is so vanilla, maple syrup was spouting of trees to give it some flavor. What else can you come up with?

During Final Jeopardy, Alex Trebeck asked the three contestants, “A 1957 event led to the creation of a national historic site in this city, signed into law by a president whose library is now there too.” Even though all of them were in the positive at the start of the round, they all ended it with a nothing because none of them guessed the correct answer “Little Rock, Ak” and bet all of their earnings.
So what happens on Jeopardy when none of them have any money left? They all go home and three new contestants will be on the next show. Is this the first time this happened? No, but it still fun to watch during the rare occasion when it does happen.
Yesterday on The Tonight Show, Jimmy Fallon brought back my favorite segment and that is the game Phone Booth. Basically, Shaq and Hugh Jackman go into the archaic structure where people used to make phone calls when they were away from home and answer questions. For every answer they got wrong, another person would enter the confined space with them. For every answer they got right, a person would go in their opponent’s private space.
As you can guess, as soon as Shaq got into his standing box, there was barely any room left. To make matters worse, Wolverine got the first answer right. That means that the NBA giant got a visitor in his booth, and that guest was Alex Trebek. As soon as the NBC late night host shut the door, things got physical between the two men as the Jeopardy host put his life in that position as he felt up O’Neal.
Then as the game went on Shaq’s area filled up and Jackman’s didn’t. Which sucks for Shaq, and it o awesome for us because how can you not laugh at their suffering.
Seriously, I love Phone Booth so much, I hope a network picks it up as a game show. I know I would watch every episode because I love to watch people suffer. Since phone booths are made of glass, they can’t hide their reaction. Well, unless they are one of the shorter people who gets stuck between someone’s legs. That happened when Kevin Spacey played the game. See isn’t this game the best?
Steve Harvey asked the contestants, “Name something a pirate has on the ship for all of those lonely nights at sea?” When the Family Feud host got over to Michael, the contestant said, “His KY, Steve!”
Harvey was so surprised by his answer that he wanted an explanation on how he came up with it. He didn’t ask Michael how, instead he asked his mother who in turn blamed it on the father. Which you can’t blame her because why should she take the fall.
So was it on the board? Two people thought, why should the pirate say, “arrrrgh” when he can say, “Ahoy, ahoy, ahoy, mate!”
And Harvey said, “I’m gonna host Jeopardy.” What is I hope he isn’t serious because I would miss him on Family Feud. No one can handle the families quite like he can.
Recently on Jeopardy, Alex Trebeck asked the contestants, “In the theme to this ’90s sitcom, ‘I pulled up to the house about 7 or 8 & I yelled to the cabbie, ‘Yo, homes, smell ya later!'” But the game show host didn’t just read answer, he rapped the part in quotes.
Let’s just say he won’t be switching jobs anytime soon, but it was a really good effort on his part. Will Smith would be proud.
