I don’t know about you, but I always assumed that if you were selected to be a contestant on Jeopardy that you had to be really smart? Well Dan (and Wolf Blitzer) is making me rethink that. It wasn’t his question to an answer that made me contemplate him being on the show? It was the story he shared about his trip to Paris, and he told Alex Trebeck that he thought the sun was the moon. Then he actually added that he still has a problem til this day telling them apart. Ummm, it really isn’t that hard. During the day it is the sun, at night it is the moon. What’s complicated about that?
BTW can you believe that he is a Ph.D student in Physics? Maybe there’s hope for me to get a Ph. D then?
For the last few months, Conan O’Brien has been making fun of Alex Trebek by mashing up his Jeopardy questions to create one crazy awesome one. Well the game show host has had enough and tonight he showed up on the TBS late night talk show to show him how mad he is. He gave Conan a taste of his own medicine and the tall red head didn’t like it. I think we can all agree, “What is Trebek loving his revenge?” is the answer to this bit.
Alex Trebek suffered a mild heart attack yesterday and he is expected to make a full recovery. According to The Hollywood Reporter he is expected to be back at work on Jeopardy’s 29th season when it begins production next month. This is the game show host’s second heart attack, and just like now back in 2007 he was back at work in a few weeks.
Let’s hope for what is a speedy recovery.
So yesterday on Jeopardy Alex Trebeck asked “If Andy yearns for Brenda & Brenda cares about Charlene who pines for Andy, the 3 of them form one of these.” Well Kara went for the obvious and said, “What is a threesome?” Sadly that was not the answer, but on a happy note she gained a lot of new fans including the host that likes to sleep in the nude!!!
Before Alex Trebek was giving the answers to questions on Jeopardy, he was the Quizmaster for Reach for the Top. If it wasn’t for the voice, I never would’ve recognized the 24 year old back in 1965.
