Merv spilled the beans?
« on: May 20, 2004, 11:09:45 PM »
Steve Beverly mentioned on his web site something was being initiated on Jeopardy tonight.  He said most people know what it is.  I don't.  Will someone tell me?  I haven't been able to catch it on television recently.  Thanks.

Posting would require several miles of "spoiler space". Suffice it to say that if you missed this episode you will have plenty of opportunity to learn of and enjoy watching this most unique sequence of episodes.

 OK, I will give it a shot....  How about Strip J!?  If your question is wrong, you take off a piece of clothing.  The winner is the person wearing all or most of the clothes.

Just think, Celebrity Strip J! could include Jessica Simpson, Paris Hilton and Dennis Rodman...  hmmmm...

You sure know the way to this man's heart!

Chris, Matt.... what is the policy on posting massive spoilers? I know you guys have it so well organized that the answer is just a click or two away, but I'm too lazy. If I've violated the rules, simply delete the offending hint and we'll clean it all up in post  ;-)

There was a rule change recently on Jeopardy that will be taken full advantage of, to an extent far exceeding anyone's reasonable expectation.  It will be way cool to watch!

 I think this was Seth's homage to "Vague." :-) (That was for all of you MAD TV fans out there...and I know there's a couple of you here).

 I must have missed the big change last night, I didn't see a dog-gone thing different about Thursday's show. BTW, when will the Matt Ottinger episodes air?

This thread (and the other in Summaries) just fascinates me.  

Thing is, I know what's going on, and I'm still confused!

This has been another installment of Matt Ottinger's Masters of the Obvious.
Stay tuned for all the obsessive-compulsive fun of Words Have Meanings.
