One of my favorite weekly activities is watching Jeopardy at 7:30 and getting no more than 15% of the answers correct. I realized today that Alex Trebek must really enjoy reading the cards because he isn't even smart enough to know all the trivia he tests his contestants on.
This got me thinking that if Alex ever retired and I was to take over, the show would be much different. First, I would get rid of that stupid rule to answer in the form of a question. Next I would have much more entertaining categories. Here is a sampling of what could be:
Jeopardy:
Things that rhyme with Slinky
The Periodic Table
Types of vodka
5th grade Physical Education
Harry Potter
Double Jeopardy:
Corporate logos
SEC football teams
Fabric care
Pizza Toppings
Movies with Nicholas Cage
Final Jeopary: Masonic Orders
What would your categories be? Ole Trebek will have retire someday and what will you do if they call you to be the next host? I'll be ready
I'd go the celebrity jeopardy from SNL route:
ReplyDeleteColors that rhyme with "urple"
Trebeck's mom
And perhaps Boy Band triva. Oooh that one would be super fun.
I used to torture the Model UN kids with jeopardy questions I made. LOVE IT!
