Any idea why WTVD is showing the first Alex Trebek hosted episode of Jeopardy from 1984? I mean, it's cool, just curious why they are doing it.

Alex Trebek did a little public service thing before hand, I think its just some random thing they decided to do. Do these questions seem unbelievably easy?

9/7/2009 7:05:15 PM

nobody died douche

9/7/2009 7:05:29 PM

lol they've got the audience reactions cranked

man i love the glorious late 70s/early 80s-style gameshow

somehow attention spans got shorter, but the gameshow format got more drawn out and boring

I forgot how much I liked Non-smug fuck Alex Trebek.

Although he does like a wayward member of the Oak Ridge Boys.

9/7/2009 7:11:19 PM

good lord

the urgency of the way he's going through this

9/7/2009 7:19:15 PM

man how long has that show been on the air (too lazy to check).

alex looks young as hell, and the game hasn't changed after all these years. i spose if it aint broke why fix it huh.

9/7/2009 7:21:17 PM

1984 is when he started hosting and he currently still does. so 25 years? maybe thats got some significance to the show's airing?

I was one of the last ten or twelve people during the college jeopardy tryouts when they held it here a few years ago. I always tell people it's because I'm not telegenic enough, but I might have just been dumber than the State guy they ended up picking (although based on his performance, I damn sure hope not).
