Jeopardy has been on our televisions five days a week since 1984, and they have covered a lot of trivia.
However, there might only be so many things they can ask the contestants. And they might be running out of questions.
Why do I say that? Because this week, they had a category that was called “Squirrels Just Want to Have Fun,” and it was about all things squirrels.
Who knew there were five different facts about the wingless pigeons? But it turns out there is. And because of that, I am more knowledgeable about them. Granted, I already forgot what I had learned. But it may come back to me if someone ever asks me to tell them about squirrels. You never know. It could happen.
Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune are the top two shows in syndication, and their contracts are up at the end of the season. Therefore, it makes sense that CBS Media Ventures wants to keep them around for a while. So they picked up both game shows for five more seasons.
While the series will be around until 2028, the press release does not mention if the talent will be. Pat Sajak, 76, has hinted he has wants to retire, but will he? And I can’t see Vanna White going anywhere because what woman doesn’t want to be a human Barbie doll and wear all of those beautiful gowns? When it comes to Jeopardy, I have no idea what they will newbies Ken Jennings and Mayim Bialik. They have only been hosting for two years, as compared to Sajak and White, who have been doing the job for 40 years and counting.
Jeopardy is in the mood for love, and that is how they are starting off 2023. They asked the contestants if they knew the famous movie lines from five romance films. And they did.
And I didn’t. That makes me realize I need to switch from Horror to Romance so my life will be more like the latter than the former.
Jeopardy wanted to see if the contestants knew who these Music Icons are, and they got them all right. Why? Because it is easy enough for people like us to know who they are. Did you know them as well as we did?
Us Americans know these movies as Ghostbusters and Grease, but in other countries, they are known as something else. So, Jeopardy wanted to see if the contestants can guess the correct title of a movie from the States in other places like China or Mexico. Did you do better than they did? I didn’t!
