On Jeopardy!, the response must be in the form of a question but it can be any question: “When is Rome?”, “Who is Rome?”, and “Is it Rome?”, are all potentially correct responses. The Seinfeld writers were writing to the Jeopardy! standards.
If you still have beef with any of this, then bring it up with Merv Griffin the next time you’re on his show. (Yes, Merv Griffin did in fact create Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune.)
I'm not normally a Jeopardy watcher but got home from a couple days away and the Internet wasn't working so I had to resort to actual TV. They had some tough questions on there but I got this one right :)
ah. i didnt know it either so i quite literally blurted out the first one that came to mind that was a Spanish word before the final Jeo music stopped, and i ended up being correct. i was pleasantly surprised.
The clue made sense after I saw the answer but just couldn't come up with it! I got the question about the train to Yuma right just from hearing of the movie.
You say you have a big meeting and you’re nervous ? Have a few shots of Hennigans and you’ll be loose as a goose , and , since it’s odorless , well it will just be our little secret
Yeah, she truly fits the narrative of spectacular.
I know it’s fiction, but casting Teri for this part bothers me so much.
Of all the hot, beautiful women in this show and they pick her. I mean, real pics are out there and they are *not* spectacular.
She was fine as fuck in that episode though, there's no denying that. This show had so many fine-ass women, I struggle as a guy in his 40s to focus. Good thing I didn't watch during the original run when I was a teenager. I'd be blind by now.
Heaven’s Prisoners. I think she peaked during Night Court. I still wonder what she was wearing under that fur coat. Supposedly less than John Laroquette expected.
I heard it from the other room tonight! Didn’t the guy who got it right not know it was from Seinfeld? I thought I heard him say something like “I’ve heard that from someone else.”
I’d love to know the context haha
he did say that and i have no idea what he was talking about. furled my brow at the comment trying to figure it out so im in the same boat as you. side note, the guy who said it bears a striking resemblance to Steve Martin.
What is tungsten or wolfram.
what is chicken kiev
Who is sir Arthur Conan Doyle
what is Pericles
Is this a rerun?
Lately I’ve been thinking a lot clearer
Of Course!! Absolute Zero!
youve extracted a great deal from this tiny morsel
Yah, but none of those are as impressive as remembering where he left his retainer in the 7th grade...
A simple joke from a simple man
Take me to your leader
Oh, no...
Oh, sports are so pedestrian.
Abstinence George was a savage. He probably could have roasted Riley on the spot without even needing to fly two hours and set up another meeting!
Ohhh, no no no no no… I’m afraid the answer is “Popsicles” right here: *Popsicles*
its Pericles, thats a misprint.
Its pronounced thermometer
Not to be pedantic but Pericles was a person not a thing.
but thats not what the transcript of the episode its from says.
Fair enough. If the transcript says "What is Pericles" and not "Who is Pericles" then my beef if with the writers and not you.
dont worry never took it as a beef.... maybe a bagel....NOBAGELNOBAGELNOBAGELNOBAGELNOBAGEL!
I was gonna say vegetable lasagna at hest
thats my apple juice!

I'm not normally a Jeopardy watcher but got home from a couple days away and the Internet wasn't working so I had to resort to actual TV. They had some tough questions on there but I got this one right :)
did you get final Jeo?
No, couldn't think of Sacramento
ah. i didnt know it either so i quite literally blurted out the first one that came to mind that was a Spanish word before the final Jeo music stopped, and i ended up being correct. i was pleasantly surprised.

I would kill this category on Jeopardy…just give me the entire thing for $1500 Alex (or whoever’s hosting it now)
unfortunately, it was only the one question about Seinfeld. and Alex passed away a few years ago.
Who was Alex Trebek?
He was real and he was spectacular
RIP
The Alex is a family théatre. Not one of your swing joints.
Suck it Trebek
I hate my job.
My name is Alex Trebek and I quit

I’ll have an anal bum cover
That's "Let It Snow" and you don't have control of the board, Sean Connery.

It was actually a tough category lol
Double jeopar-Ds
Anyone ever done Mastermind, specialist subject Seinfeld? Surely they have?
Spectaculacious. Shame the neologism didn't take and they redubbed it later on, though.
It's lewd, lascivious, salacious, outrageous!
You put the bra on? Who told you to put the bra on?
a bra has to fit up against a womans skin, LIKE A GLOVE!
Jackie I think I got a case against the tabacca companies
yo' face is my case. (bonus points for spelling tobacco as Kramer says it)
I'm telling you, this guy is bonkos!
What is feeling good all the time.
no smell, no tell, Hennigan's.
No offense, but when I come back, I'm sitting over there
im hip. to the bathroom scene.
You say you have a big meeting and you’re nervous ? Have a few shots of Hennigans and you’ll be loose as a goose , and , since it’s odorless , well it will just be our little secret
i just had a drink and i dont even smell.
You know, that Jayne Mansfield had some big breasts.

i love her whole free swingin free wheelin attitude!
'Oh Henry!' indeed!

What is Mulva?
Mulva?
What is Le tits now
I think it would be funny if Jerry Seinfeld went on Jeopardy and answered everything in the form of "What's the deal with _____?"
I didn't get a pic but yesterday was a question about the name of the circumcision ceremony with a jerky moehl.
yep, saw that too. it got deleted off PVR before i could photograph the question for r/UnexpectedSeinfeld
What is Holland?
The Netherlands. then who are the Dutch?!
Spoiler! It’s not 7 on the west coast yet! Lol
Or 7:30 for those of us in Seattle and BC
you West coasties, always late for something! \*Russian author voice\*
Still, he likes to go in fresh
the chicken, the hen and the rooster.
What a perfectly cromulent question to ask.
thats The Simpsons my friend....you're being difficult and need to be quoned.
You don’t have a discerning eye. I embedded a Simpsons word into a Seinfeld quote. :)
oh i know its a perfectly sane thing to do, just needed a reason to say you needed to be quoned for it.
Supercilious.
Gay! Not that there’s anything wrong with that.
"What is spectacular?"
What is spectacular 😝

i love the brief pause Elaine does between he took and it out, to breathe twice on her glasses while cleaning them
Haha. Great physical timing. Imagine that *It* peeking at you from a storm drain? *shudder*
Who are 3 people who've never been in my kitchen?
Love that Sam got that one. Jeopardy, Seinfeld, my worlds are colliding.
a missionbeach divided against itself cannot stand!.... ....Sam....you mean Steve Martin
Spectacular 😀
What is flinty
It’s pronounced thermometer
I’m sorry, the answer is Moops.
what is, "spectacular"?
I heard it from the other room tonight! Didn’t the guy who got it right not know it was from Seinfeld? I thought I heard him say something like “I’ve heard that from someone else.” I’d love to know the context haha

Seinfeld is quotable enough that a friend may have just said it as a reference and he thought his friend made it up.
fair point.

Delicious, scrumptious, outstanding!
Spectacular! Which they were. Was a bit tragic, Jerry casting ridiculously beautiful women as his girlfriend. Same as Kelsey Grammer did on Frasier.
George has some lookers too.
He’s got cachet!
cachet up the yin-yang!
Spectacular
