DS Character on Jeopardy?!!!
« on: January 27, 2011, 01:57:12 AM »
Fun coincidence that only a DS could appreciate:  on tonight's episode of Jeopardy, one of the contestants was a maintenance man named Tom Jennings!

Yes, I saw that guy tonight; he said that he hails from Philadelphia, but, I'm not buying that at all.  By the way, how did he know all of those arcane world capitals?

So, rejoice, Tom Jennings is alive and very well on "Jeopardy"! [snow_happy] [snow_laugh]

PS What's next, John Yeager appearing on "The Bachelor"?

Well, some of us like maps!  Either that, or he absorbs knowledge from every victim he feeds upon....

If any John Yaeger is anything like his DS namesake, he would never get through the vetting process to be on TV, particularly on a show like The Bachelor. And that's a good thing. If DS Yaeger's treatment of Buffie and Maggie is any indication, can you just imagine what his namesake would do to the women on The Bachelor??!!  [shockeyes]  Although, come to think of it, considering some of the things that are on TV these days, maybe he would get through because they'd be hoping his antics would make the ratings go through the roof.  [sad3]

1. The learned Prof. T. Elliot Stokes [snow_wink]

2. Dr. Julia Hoffman [snow_wink]

3. Count Andreas Petofi [snow_wink]

4. Adam [snow_wink]


Dark Shadows Characters Who Would Probably Not Excel on Jeopardy:

1. Buzz Hackett [snow_huh]

2. Willie Loomis [snow_huh]

Bob, I'm not so sure that Stokes and Adam would have excelled on Jeopardy.  I'm thinking Stokes would have been slow to hit the buzzer - too busy sneaking cheese from his secret stash, perhaps.  And Adam would start creating mayhem in the studio around the third time Alex Trebek reminded him, “Your response must be in the form of a question.”
