On the June 27 episode, a contestant wore a black shirt with white letters that said “Not no one not like no Plinko.”

Plinko is a game on The Price is Right, where contestants have to put a chip into a slot and drop it to see if it lands on the grand prize in the middle.

“I like your shirt,” the host told the contestant.

After Drew pointed out Karl’s shirt and told him he wasn’t going to play Plinko, he asked him where he was from.

“Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania!” the man shouted.

Drew, 66, smiled, turned to the camera, and chuckled, said, “I was gonna say….”

The host laughed and then turned towards the announcer to tell the player what he could win.

“Not no one not like… a brand new SUV!” George said.

Karl went on to the showcase, but did not win.

CAREY-D AWAY

The Price is Right contestant suffers wardrobe malfunction on air as host Drew Carey says ‘we’ll get you another one!’
This isn’t the first time this week that a contestant’s wardrobe was pointed out by Drew.

On Wednesday’s show, a woman named Zaniya ran up to the stage after correctly bidding at her podium.

In the process, her name tag fell off her shirt as she jumped up and down.

One of the players still standing behind the podium picked up the name tag and handed it to Zaniya.

When she stood next to Drew, she held it up proudly.

“I won’t forget your name. We’ll get you another name tag later for a souvenir,” Drew told her.

‘TIL I DIE’

Despite Drew flinging insults and being a witness to wardrobe malfunctions, the host isn’t going anywhere.

 

In an interview with TV Insider, the host talked about being the longest-running game show host, now that Pat Sajak retired from Wheel of Fortune.

He told the outlet about his future on The Price is Right, which he has hosted since 2007.

“I just show up and punch the clock and hope I have a job every day,” Drew said.

“I do have a goal: I want to keep going until I die. This is my 18th season. I’ve got to get the 35 and 41 so I can catch Bob Barker and Pat Sajak.”

Bob Barker was the host of The Price Is Right from September 4, 1972, until June 15, 2007.

“It’s such just a great part of my day, my year, my life. I can’t imagine giving it up,” Drew went on.

“I can quit anytime I want!”

[H0T] Jeopardy! Ken Jennings is begging The Price is Right Drew Carey for help. Here’s all you need to know

Ken Jennings seeks approval from host Drew Carey as show mistakes could prevent ‘long-term’ contract with Jeopardy!

KEN Jennings is counting on the approval of fellow game show host Drew Carey to bolster his reputation at Jeopardy!, The U.S. Sun has been told.

Former champion Ken, 50, took on sole hosting duties after co-host Mayim Bialik was let go in December.

Initially, then-executive producer Mike Richards was named the new Jeopardy! host in 2021.

He was forced to resign after a mere week when sexist comments he had previously made on a podcast resurfaced.

Now, Ken has ambitions to replicate his hero, Alex Trebek, and his decades-long run on the beloved quiz show.

It appears he has a supporter in his corner in The Price Is Right presenter Drew, 66, which is crucial as Ken looks to do what Drew has done.

‘DREW HAS COME AROUND TO KEN’

A colleague of the big-hearted CBS star said, “Back when it was an open seat and an open job, Drew was fiercely in his friend Mike Richards’ corner.

“He felt that Mike was the best prepared to replace Alex and keep the franchise going.

“But that’s because Drew and Mike were friends.

 

“Now that Mayim has bowed out, Drew has really come around to Ken, even though they are merely acquaintances and colleagues.”

GOAT contestant Ken holds the record for the longest winning streak in Jeopardy! history with 74 consecutive wins in 2004.

Since becoming sole host, some fans have questioned his charisma, while others have called out instances where he can be too harsh in his rulings.

Ken Jennings called out for denying partial answer about famous film as Jeopardy! fans question if game rules are ‘real’
Meanwhile, veteran entertainer Drew has been hosting The Price Is Right since 2007 after taking over from the legendary Bob Barker.

He’s also worked with Jeopardy!’s parent company, Sony Pictures Television, presenting their game show Power of 10 between 2007 and 2008.

That gig set him up for his now-long-running role at The Price Is Right, which he’s held for nearly two decades.

‘MODEL FOR SMOOTH TRANSITION’

Ken wants longevity on Jeopardy!, and it’s why he wants Drew’s approval- that, and Drew has sway at Sony.

To Sony, Drew epitomizes a modern-day game show host who took over for an iconic previous host and has since won over audiences.

“The perception inside the Jeopardy! bubble right now is that Ken needs all the help he can get,” The U.S. Sun’s source said.

“Drew does see Ken as a guy who fought for the job, proved his worthiness, and deserves a fair shot from audiences.

“What’s important about Drew’s approval is that it really does resonate with the executives at Sony.

“He is taken incredibly seriously at that place, and his takeover of The Price is Right is the model for a smooth game show host transition.”

Despite Drew’s weight in the entertainment world, the insider believes Ken still has a battle on his hands, with or without his backing.

The source said, “Is an endorsement from Drew enough to give Ken the kind of lifetime tenure that Alex enjoyed in the job?

“Not quite, because Ken still has a balancing act to perform when it comes to keeping the ratings steady while dealing with the vocal army of Jeopardy!-obsessed fans on the internet who pick over his every syllable looking for mistakes.

“Sony listens to Drew, but they’re also monitoring the fan community incredibly closely.

“Ken has to keep the fans hooked without outraging them, and it’s not easy.”

Jeopardy! fans are vocally protective of the show’s legacy, regularly calling out the smallest of mistakes online.

But most feel it wasn’t a mistake to hire Ken as host, and the consensus is that he’s doing Alex and the trivia show proud.

HOST HAVOC

Ken’s vision to capture Alex’s longevity on Jeopardy! comes after a scandalous transitional period to replace him.

Alex hosted the show’s modern iteration from 1984 until November 2020 after losing a battle with pancreatic cancer.

After his death, things got a bit chaotic, as viewers know all too well.

After a series of guest hosts, officials announced that producer Mike Richards and actress Mayim would be taking over as co-hosts.

However, in August 2021, Richards resigned over sexist resurfaced comments and Ken stepped in to split hosting duties with Mayim.

In July 2022, it was announced that Mayim and Ken would continue to host together for Season 39 by switching off.

However, after the show’s summer 2023 hiatus, it was revealed that Jennings would take over as the permanent host for Season 40.

Mayim announced in a personal Instagram message in late December 2023 that she would “no longer be hosting” the show.

Jeopardy! Host Timeline

Jeopardy! has had a tumultuous history regarding hosts after the death of the iconic Alex Trebek in 2020. Here are all of the hosts since the game show’s inception in 1964.

Art Fleming – 1964 to 1975, he was the original host of the daytime version of Jeopardy! on NBC.

Alex Trebek – 1984 to 2020, the late, great Alex hosted Jeopardy!’s modern iteration for 36 years until his death from pancreatic cancer.

 

Guest hosts – 2020 to 2021, Jeopardy! tested out a series of guest hosts for week or two-week stints, including Anderson Cooper, LaVar Burton, and Aaron Rodgers.

Mike Richards – 2021, he was named host for one week before resigning amid controversy. He was the show’s executive producer at the time.

Mayim Bialik – 2021 to 2023, when Mike was announced as the show’s new host, Mayim was chosen to host tournaments and primetime specials.

Mayim and Ken Jennings – 2022 to 2023, 74-time champion Ken (the longest-winning contestant ever) joined Mayim as a guest host and they split hosting duties.

Ken Jennings – 2023 to present. Last December, Mayim announced on Instagram that she would “no longer” host Jeopardy! after a lengthy hiatus, having stood with the writer’s strike, and Ken was named sole host.

Ken now helms all editions of Jeopardy! including Celebrity Jeopardy!, the nightly show, and other primetime specials like Masters.

“As the Holiday break begins in Hollywood, I have some Jeopardy! news,” she began her post.

“Sony has informed me that I will no longer be hosting the syndicated version of Jeopardy!”

Jeopardy! cobbled together a similar-looking Instagram message an hour later, and it has since been reported that Mayim broke the news without consulting the show first.

Ken later said he “understood” the decision as shows “don’t have two hosts.”

HAPPY WITH ‘LESS MONEY’

Ken is reportedly tied to a $4 million contract now that he’s the singular host of the series.

The U.S. Sun previously reported that his contract isn’t long-term just yet.

“He still has no long-term Trebek-style contract, and the President of Sony TV can replace him at any time, on a whim,” a source previously shared.

However, Ken is happy to take a pay cut to ensure he remains a host for decades to come.

“Jeopardy! is Ken’s religion; he lives it, and he breathes it, and despite all the outside pressures, he’s not going to mess this up,” the source revealed.

“What he really wants more than anything is to stick around and make this position work for the long run.

“And if that means making less money to ensure his longevity, you can bet your life he’d be game.”

Ken made $2.5 million from his record 74-game run as a contestant and $4.3 million including tournaments.

Alex reportedly made $10 million a year by the end of his 36-year tenure.

‘KEN KNOWS HIS ISSUES’

As Ken grows into his seemingly permanent role, he’s also well aware that his biggest pitfall is not being a natural-born TV presenter.

Ken never had another major TV role to his name, but he’s not letting that stop him as he grows into his role for the long haul.

“Ken is self-aware and knows his issues are always going to be how his personality reads on camera,” a source also previously claimed.

“And not his proven expertise with trivia or with the Jeopardy! game itself.

“Ken knows this, Sony knows this, and everybody knows this is the reason he was never the first choice to replace Alex Trebek,” they claimed.

“He got this job because the other candidates didn’t work out, and Ken is at peace with that.”

[$H0CKING] Jeopardy! fans lose their minds over Ken Jennings using racy word in clue

Jeopardy viewers couldn’t believe their ears when tuning into Friday’s episode of the much-loved gameshow when Ken Jennings said a cheeky word

Jeopardy viewers couldn’t believe their ears when tuning into an episode of the much-loved gameshow when Ken Jennings said a rather cheeky word.

 

On December 6, Ken invited Erin Adams, Zach DeBoer, and returning champion Dave Bond into the studio to battle it out – and ended leaving fans ‘distracted’ with one particular phrase.

Asking the trio a question in the ‘A is for Art’ category, Ken said: ‘3-word title of a Titian in the Prado: She’s reaching for the forbidden fruit, he’s reaching for her boob,’ as Zach quickly replied: ‘What is Adam and Eve?’ to which the host replied: ‘Correct.’

Viewers were stunned and immediately took to Reddit to discuss the episode as one person wrote: ‘TIL (today I learned) you can say boob on jeopardy.’

Another fan of the show replied and said: ‘I was so distracted by Ken saying boob that I didn’t even hear the clue!’

A third person pointed out: ‘And the first-ever usage of “boob” in reference to “female breast”, at that! ‘

 

A fourth Reddit user suggested: ‘Doubt that would fly 20 or even 10 years ago. “Breast” would’ve been the word of choice. The clue writers have gotten more goofy in recent years.’

Someone else replied and joked: ‘Or less Victorian…,’ as another person responded: ‘Victorians would not have said breast.’

Ken said the word ‘boob’ when asking a contestant a question in the ‘A is for Art’ category

A different viewer commented: ‘It was previously established you can say “manboobs”, so this is giving equal treatment to all kinds of boobs.’

Someone else joked: ‘I was really irked by that vulgarity,’ and another person pointed out: ‘Though they have previously used the phrase “minimal boobage” in reference to Lotto’s Susanna and the Elders.’

When one Reddit user posted a link to the paining of Adam and Eve, someone else claimed: ‘I dunno, looks like he’s pushing her away, as in get away from that fruit, not doing what the clue suggests. I think the writers were just feeling cheeky.’

Over on X, formerly known as Twitter, one viewer wasn’t impressed and posted: ‘Boob, #jeopardy? Really? Couldn’t have used the more respectful term breast?

‘Alex used to give the writers feedback on their clues; Ken needs to start doing the same,’ they added, referring to former Jeopardy! host Alex Trebek.

The comments come a little over a month after Ken apologized to a female contestant after reading out a ‘sexist’ clue – admitting that the question had been ‘a little problematic.’

During the October 28 episode of Jeopardy!, contestant Heather Ryan buzzed in for a question from the ‘Complete the Rhyming Phrase’ category.

Ken then asked the phrase: ‘Men seldom make passes at….’ 

Jeopardy! viewers were quick to comment on Reddit about the use of the word ‘boob’

Dave Bond, Zach DeBoer, and Erin Adams were the contestants on Friday’s episode

Fellow contestant, Will Wallace, correctly buzzed in with the answer ‘girls who wear glasses.’

Presenter Ken was quick to call the clue ‘a little problematic’ before apologizing to Heather, who also happened to be wearing glasses.

Former reigning champion Will also quipped ‘very.’

Luckily, Heather didn’t seem too rattled by the situation – and Ken quickly moved the game on.

Jeopardy! fans, however, blasted the ‘sexist’ clue on social media and slammed the category too.

Taking to Reddit, one said: ‘Rhyming phrases category was awful, especially the sexist clue.’

Echoing a similar sentiment, another added: ‘Frankly, I don’t need to hear Ken read an obviously outdated and inappropriate clue and then call it “problematic.”‘

A third penned on X: ‘More like extremely problematic!’

[BREAKING NEWS] Famous ‘The Price Is Right’ Game That May Be Getting Retired

Famous ‘The Price Is Right’ Game That May Be Getting Retired

The Price Is Right has added several games to the retirement bunch. Is it a game that viewers would be okay with not seeing anymore? It seems viewers want the games switched up a bit anyway. Also, there are some fans who think is too hard. Keep reading to find out more about this.

The Price Is Right Games In Retirement

The Game That May Get Retired

Viewers are hoping to see the game, 3 Strikes, retired as well. They think the game is just too hard and it is not enjoyable to watch. Fans went to Reddit to give their opinions.

Hardest: Three Strikes

Three Strikes is basically a middle finger to anyone who wants to win a car.

3 Strikes is the hardest.

If you’re lucky enough to get your the show and they reveal Stack the Deck or 3 Strikes to you, just walk off the stage and wait for the Showcase Showdown.

3 Strikes is not a fun game

I legitimately can’t remember the last time I saw a player get more than 1, maybe 2 numbers before striking out so I’m not a fan of this game either lol,

I despise 3 strikes. Way too much luck involved,

Fans are not loving the game. It is not easy and does not result in many wins.

Price Is Right

It seems that 3 Strikes is the hardest game in fans’ opinions. They do not think it is fair to the contestant. While it is a rare game to see, viewers would not mind never seeing it again. They would like to see more contestants winning cars and not losing.

However, easier games may not be in the show’s best interest due to financial reasons. What do you think about the game? Would you like to see it get laid to rest? Sound off in the comments below.

BREAKING NEWS: ‘Hollywood Squares’ Returns With Drew Carey & Drew Barrymore. Mark Your Calendar

‘Hollywood Squares’ Returns With Drew Carey & Drew Barrymore

 

Hollywood Squares is coming back to television. The classic game show is a form of tic-tac-toe. In the game show, celebrities sit in boxes positioned as a game board. The two contestants then get clues from the celebs and decide if they are lying or telling the truth. Whoever gets tic-tac-toe wins the game.

The first promo shows that Drew Barrymore and Drew Carey will be involved, and it roasted both celebs in the process.

 

Hollywood Squares Returning To CBS

After several years off the air, Hollywood Squares is returning to television. CBS Mornings host Nate Burleson (a former NFL football star) will host the new version of the game show, and the celebrities will feature several familiar faces.

The original show was the home to some iconic comic actors. Originally airing on NBC, that original show ran from 1966 to 1980. It featured celebrities in the squares ranging from Rich Little and Roddy McDowall to Joan Rivers, Jonathan Winters, and Weird Al Yankovic. The iconic Betty White also appeared on the show.

While Drew Barrymore was originally rumored to be hosting the show, it is Burleson in that spot. Barrymore, though, is involved. She has a spot in the center square on the board and will be one of the celebrities giving true or false responses to the players.

The teaser for Hollywood Squares also shows another Drew, Drew Carey from The Price is Right. Triumph the Insult Comic Dog trolled Barrymore in the teaser, and Drew Carey was also the brunt of a joke later.

Who Are The Other Celebs On Hollywood Squares?

On top of Drew Barrymore and Drew Carey, there are plenty of recognizable faces on the new Hollywood Squares. The teasers have started to drop, and plenty of names are joining the new rebooted game show.

The celebrities involved include:

Tyra Banks (America’s Next Top Model)
Yvette Nicole Brown (Community)
Whitney Cummings (Whitney)
Julie Bowen (Modern Family)
Jay Leno (The Tonight Show)
Justin Long (Goosebumps)
Akbar Gbajabiamila (American Ninja Warrior, The Talk)
Tiffany Haddish (The Afterparty)
Gabriel Iglesias (The Santa Clauses)
Jo Koy (ahem)
Kevin Nealon (Man With a Plan)
RuPaul (LINGO)
Andrew Rannells (Girls)
Kristen Schaal (The Last Man on Earth)
Sheryl Underwood (The Talk)
Oliver Hudson (Rules of Engagement)
Pete Holmes (Crashing)
Jimmy O. Yang (Interior Chinatown)
Triumph the Insult Comic Dog.

There will also be other celebrity guests announced at a later date. Since there are nine squares, the celebs mentioned above will rotate. It is assumed Drew Barrymore will be a regular, though, as the Center Square.

What are your thoughts on Hollywood Squares returning as a new NBC game show series? Let us know in the comments below.

[JUST IN] Jeopardy!’s Ken Jennings blurts out a $h0cking phrase & fans are in disbelief

Jeopardy!’s Ken Jennings blurts out slang for body part & fans are in disbelief show ‘finally progressed’ clue language

 

 

JEOPARDY! host Ken Jennings has shocked fans by blurting out a NSFW phrase for a private body part rather than the more conservative language the show typically uses.

Viewers immediately took notice of the word being used and quipped the show is “finally progressing” with the lingo used in clues after 60 years on the air.

Returning champion Dave Bond was looking to extend his one-day winnings of $25,000 when he competed on Friday’s game.

 

The retired grant writer from West Henrietta, New York went up against Zach DeBoer, a graduate student from Winston-Salem, North Carolina, and Erin Adams, a historian & educator from Springfield, Tennessee.

Dave played aggressively early on and his risk paid off when betting it all on a true Daily Double, the first of the game.

Under the category Scientific Discoveries, host Ken, 50, read the clue: “Identified in the 1970s, these pain-relieving proteins in the brain were named to reflect their similarity to morphine.”

“What are endorphins?” Dave correctly responded – doubling his score to $8,000.

Entering the Double Jeopardy! round, Dave was in the lead with $8,400 while Zach was in second with $6,000 and Erin had garnered $4,800.

Ken then introduced the second batch of categories: LITERARY LANDMARKS, IN THE KITCHEN, GENDERED LANGUAGE, “A” FOR ART, LAKES, 2024 DNC STATE ROLL CALL SONGS.

It was in this round that viewers were surprised by the language the show, and Ken, used for one of the clues.

The clue was for $800 under the ‘A’ is for Art category
Dave chose the category “A” for Art for $800 when Ken read aloud the clue.

“3-word title of a titan in the Prado: She’s reaching for the forbidden fruit, he’s reaching for her boob,” the host read as his voice got higher pitched by the end of the sentence.

Zach correctly buzzed in with “What is Adam and Eve?”

The word “boob” caught many viewers off guard, as in the past the show has used the more formal word, “breast.”

Jeopardy! fans fume over ‘weak’ and ‘unfactual’ final clue & blame Ken Jennings’ pronunciation for player’s brutal loss

“Today I learned you can say boob on Jeopardy!,” one fan said.

Another agreed, adding: “I was so distracted by Ken saying boob that I didn’t even hear the clue!”

“It’s taken about 50 years, but by using “boob” in a clue in reference to a female breast, Jeopardy! has finally progressed to the level of language used by 1970s Match Game,” a third quipped.

“Ken saying the word ‘boob’ was not on my 2024 bingo card,” another wrote.

While one more asked: “I’m of course not at all offended, but I am actually really surprised they use something so informal like boob and not breast or chest, anyone else?”

Heading into Final Jeopardy!, Dave maintained his lead with $16,400.

Jeopardy! 2025 Tournament of Champions

Jeopardy!’s next Tournament of Champions will take place this winter, midway through Season 41 (exact airdate TBA) and it’s shaping up to be another showstopper. Here’s who is officially eligible so far:

Adriana Harmeyer (15 wins and $349,600 total)
Isaac Hirsch (nine wins and $215,390)
Greg Jolin (five wins and $135,002)
Survivor alum Drew Basile (seven wins and $129,601)
Alison Betts (5 wins and $121,500)
Mark Fitzpatrick (five wins and $107,201)
Dr. Amy Hummel (5 wins and $100,994)
Ryan Manton (four wins and $83,179)
Grant DeYoung (four wins and $81,203)
Will Wallace (four wins and $79,998)
Amar Kakirde (four wins and $55,899)
Lisa Ann Walter (winner of Celebrity Jeopardy! 2024)

The prize for winning the ToC is $250,000 and a coveted slot in Jeopardy! Masters.

Jeopardy.com notes: “All 4-time and over winning players starting from 04/10/24 will be eligible for a future Tournament of Champions.”

“Presence on this list does NOT guarantee an invitation to compete. Other eligibility rules apply and final selection is up to the producers’ sole discretion.”

Erin had come from behind to earn a second-place slot with $13,000, while Zach was closely behind with $12,000.

Ken revealed the last clue under the category “TV Characters.”

“On TV in the 1960s & the 2020s, this character has a first name that’s partly from Latin for ‘Death’,” he said.

Only Zach missed the correct response of “Who is Morticia Addams?”

Dave won the game, finishing with $26,400 while Erin ended with $20,000 and Zach stayed in third place with $10,000.

If Dave wins one more game, he is likely to score a spot in the Tournament of Champions however, the post-season cutoff date for 2025 has since passed – meaning Dave would have to wait for the following year.

Why ‘Jeopardy!’ Fans Are Saying Colin Jost is Better Than Ken Jennings

Entertainment gossip and news from Newsweek’s network of contributors

Audiences got their first taste of Colin Jost as the host of Pop Culture Jeopardy!, and they seemingly want more. 

 

 

Jost, 42, made his debut as the host of the Jeopardy! spin-off game show, which had a three-part premiere on Wednesday, December 4, and naturally, fans are comparing him to the host of the original show, Ken Jennings.

Some fans took to Reddit to share their thoughts on the hosts.

“Colin Jost was actually a great host—very Ken Jennings approach with the contestants with a formal yet informal way,” wrote one fan. A second added, “I’m enjoying him immensely, to be honest. I think Ken is really good too, but Colin is more telegenic and has a great sense of humor. Obviously has more star power than Ken too.” A third fan bluntly wrote, “I feel like Colin was very polished for a newbie, and definitely funnier than Ken.”

The divisive argument over which host is better drew the attention of fans who disagree with the notion that Jennings, 50, needs to be replaced. Fans also took to X (formerly known as Twitter) to share their arguments.

 

“Some people might say Pop Culture Jeopardy! is easier than regular Jeopardy!, but regular Jeopardy! contestants don’t have to pretend to laugh at Colin Jost’s jokes,” wrote one user. A second asked, “Did Colin Jost wanna do Pop Culture Jeopardy! or did they make him do it?”

A third user added, “I think Colin is doing too much and trying a bit too hard to be funny in the first few episodes, but I think he has a lot of potential as he gets more comfortable with the flow of the game.”

The debate comes after rumors that Jost was gunning for Jennings’ position as the host of the beloved game show. The former Saturday Night Live cast member responded to the claims in an interview with The Ringer published on Tuesday, December 3, and told the outlet, “I promise I am in no way trying to steal his job. He’s very good at his job. I also have a job.”

Pop Culture Jeopardy! is 40 episodes long and set to be released in batches of three every Wednesday. The first three episodes are available for streaming on Prime Video.

[JUST IN] ‘Pop Culture Jeopardy!’ Fans’s Astonishing Reaction To Colin Jost As Host

‘Pop Culture Jeopardy!’ Fans Are Saying the Same Thing About Colin Jost as Host

Colin Jost’s debut episode as host of Pop Culture Jeopardy! has apparently left everyone with the same impression.

On Wednesday, the new game show spinoff series led by the Saturday Night Live personality premiered on Amazon Prime Video with a three-part drop. Fans appeared eager to pit the 42-year-old comedian against his current Jeopardy! counterpart, Ken Jennings, but were unable to do so as he “surprisingly” delivered.

“Just watched E1 and enjoyed it. I’m a fan of Colin Jost in general,” one admitted in a Dec. 4 Reddit post. “I found the pacing to be a bit slow and his explanations to be a little ‘read’ instead of smooth and ‘spoken’ if you know what I mean. It’s E1, he’ll fall into a rhythm. I’ll definitely keep watching.”

In a different thread, another viewer described the show as “surprisingly not too much of a walk in the park with some questions yet all very on par with pop culture-new and old.”

“Speaking of surprising, Colin Jost is actually a great host-very Ken Jennings approach with the customers with a formal yet unformal way,” they continued, noting they “wondered when a joke about him being married to [Scarlett Johansson] would come up,” and spoiler alert, “it was only 2 episodes.”

“Had to stop myself after 2 episodes because I could easily binge this all,” they added, “similarly to if Jeopardy was released as such.”

“Colin Jost is a really good host,” someone else agreed, noting his “star power” and sense of humor bring something special to the series. “I’m enjoying him immensely to be honest. I think Ken is really good too, but Colin is more telegenic.”

An X (formerly Twitter) user boldly declared they’ve watched every episode that’s been released “because of Colin Jost,” similarly, another dubbed the show and its casting “perfect.”

One more Redditor said that the show “feels more like a bar-trivia competition” when compared to the OG, but that it’s not a bad thing, gushing over how Jost’s “quick wit and off-the-cuff remarks fit right in without getting in the way of the gameplay.”

According to a TV Insider report, 40 episodes will be released as part of Season 1, coming in batches of three every Wednesday.

[BREAKING NEWS] ‘The Price Is Right’ Player Suffers Severe Injury On Set That Frightens Everyone

‘The Price Is Right’ Player Suffers Severe Injury On Set

 

The Price Is Right is a game show full of surprises. Also, because it tapes in front of a live audience, you never quite know just what to expect. In recent scenes, a player suffered a severe injury. So, what happened with this situation?

The Price Is Right: Players Can’t Always Deal With The High Energy

While it’s easy to remain calm while watching The Price Is Right from your living room, it’s a completely different ballgame when you are a player competing on the game show set. There is pressure to win, and pressure for a chance at the Showcase Showdown. However, there’s a lot more to deal with than that.

For many people, the stress of the moment gets to them. Not only does this affect their gameplay, but, in some instances, this can also affect their physical health as well. In other instances, players actually injure themselves while playing one of the games on The Price Is Right.

Player Suffers Injury On Game Show Set

In recent The Price Is Right scenes, one player got a little too enthusiastic when it came to playing a game called Punch A Bunch. In this game, players have to punch the game board to reveal a money total hidden behind the dollar sign. Players get three punches at the board.

From there, Drew Carey reveals the first money total, and players can either decide to walk away with that total, or toss it and hope they get a higher total from the next number. In a recent instance, the player got a little too enthusiastic with his punching, and appeared to hurt himself.

Was Pain Worth The Gain For The Price Is Right Player?

For this recent The Price Is Right player, he ended up making the right call. His first money total was $250, which he passed up. His second total was $5,000, which he kept. Finally, his third total was $1,000. So, despite the pain to his wrist, he made out with the highest money total of his three options. So, overall, this was not bad for a day’s work.

The highest amount that players can win on this game is $25,000, but, the statistics to even grab that one are rare. So, the fact that this player made it out with $5,000 was certainly a good deal.

One The Price Is Right commenter said: “5K ain’t bad at all congratulations Albert.”
A second game show commenter chimed in, saying: “I have never seen anyone $25k on this game.”
A third commenter added: “This is my favorite. I hope if I was ever a contestant I would get this game. Love how you win something no matter what.”
