Was anyone else screaming at the television? For those who didn’t watch, the contestants were Hal Sparks , Julie Bowen , and Paige Davis.
Fairly close game until final jeopardy between Julie and Hal, Paige is simply out of it. Final Jeopardy question was in Transportation, “What famed British mode of transportation became a permanent resident of Long Beach Ca, in December 1967.” Or words to that effect…
Paige guesses “That Plane” ??? Risks only $1
Hal, in second, guesses correctly and bets all of his $17000 or so
Julie, in the lead, kicking herself, got it right but only bet 10K of her 18000 or so and loses.
There were many other hilarious questions. I can’t wait for tonight.
Funny thing, Incubus, I also thought this was supposed to be about SNL Celebrity Jeopardy. Oh man, I laughed till I was crying whenever Sean Connery said something
Those skits are, without a doubt, some of the funniest ever done on SNL. A friend of mine burnt them all to DVD so you can watch them one after another. Good times.
Maybe it’s just me, but these seem like pretty minor celebrities. I had to look the first two up, and even then didn’t know who they are. I know Paige Davis, but jeez, she’s on TLC fer pete’s sake!
I watched that episode at my mom’s house. It was pathetic. Those were questions any 10 year old could have answered.
What idiots. At least the guy who won was playing for Doctors Without Borders… the only saving grace in the whole sordid mess.
PS- “that plane”?!? Is she even human?
If you think this is bad, it’s a good thing you didn’t see “Celebrity Mole”. I can’t believe they named it that and still managed to keep a straight face.
Well, it’s not like she was suggesting that Spanish is indegineous to the Americas or anything like that.
That was the first time I’ve ever actually watched Jeopardy. I doubt I’ll be watching again. Unless they start having categories like “swords” and “the penis mightier”.
