Now Casting: KenJen's Comedy Central Show

Looks like the wheels are finally turning for the Ken Jennings game show on Comedy Central. Saw this ad posted today for contestants. Anyone seen this posted somewhere
where I don't have to pay $15 to apply?

Run throughs will be in July according to a source very close to Ken himself.

Is the idea to do just the runthroughs in NYC or will the show proper be taped there?

The article seems to infer that the runthroughs, as well as the actual show, will be taped in New York City. Would be an odd fit, though, consider Ken is a good ol' Utah boy.

WWTBAM and Studio 7 both were shot in NYC, so quite possibly, yes.

Davies' may want to share his Millionaire staff with this show, so it would make sense to tape in NYC.  Depending on the number of episodes to be taped, if the staging of the show is not too complicated, they can crank out many episodes in a short amount of time.  If there are physical or other types of challenges, it may take them longer of course.

Oh, yas!
HOST: Do you want to answer the question yourself or do you want Ken to take the physical challenge?

Contestant:  Physical challenge!

Marc Summers:  Physical challenge.  The answer we were looking for was the Mormon Tabernacle Choir.  Come on over, Ken!!

<drum beats for the physical challenge>

For this physical challenge...

Ken:  What's that?

THAT would be your buzzer?

Ken:  That's a funny looking buzzer......

For this challenge, you have to answer three questions correctly.

Ken:  And how am I supposed to buzz in?

(and if you've seen "Distraction", you know the rest of the joke.)

Might be odd, but very happy-making for those of us on the Right Coast.
