‘Jeopardy!’ Ken Jennings Loses It After NSFW Answer
Jeopardy! host Ken Jennings often keeps his composure while hosting the popular game show. In recent scenes, however, even Jennings barely held on after a cheeky answer. So, what happened in recent game show scenes?
Jeopardy! Host Ken Jennings Often Keeps His Composure
When it comes to hosting a show like Jeopardy!, where it’s all about testing your library of knowledge and brain power, things are often serious in tone. With the academic approach to this game show, things don’t get quite as outlandish or out of hand as they might on other game shows like The Price Is Right or Family Feud.
Taking that more academic approach means that Ken Jennings has to stay calm, cool, and collected. While he certainly inserts some dry humor and sprinkles in the occasional funny quip, for the most part, the tone of the show remains serious, as there is often big money at stake.
Ken Jennings Barely Hangs On In Recent Scenes
Jeopardy! host Ken Jennings left all three players stumped in recent scenes. The thing that had everyone scratching their heads was part of the US Areas and Territories category. This particular conundrum was worth a cool $1600.
Reading the clue, Jennings said: “Despite the name, these birds aren’t dumb – the masked brown types make their homes on Johnston Atoll, a nature wildlife refuge.”
The panel of competitors was collectively stumped by this, resulting in Jennings giving the answer. He said: “Those are boobies.”
Jeopardy! fans couldn’t help but notice the twinkle in the host’s eye as he read this answer, doing his best to hold back a chuckle while he did so.
Jeopardy! Fans Have A Laugh Over Answer
Even though Blue-footed Boobies are a type of bird, most viewers, and even the host himself, seemed to get a kick out of the other association people typically have with the word “boobies.” Ken Jennings may have just barely kept his composure while hosting the show, but, viewers had plenty to say about this recent interaction in scenes.
- One Jeopardy! fan wrote: “Heh heh. He said boobys. You can tell Ken is trying to slyly keep a straight face right at the end.”
- Another viewer commented on this hilarious moment from the show, adding: “Ken sounded just a bit too cheery on that.”
- Another person said: “Great delivery from Ken here but this was also one of those sentences that I can hear crystal clear in Alex’s voice and it made me miss him. He had a very specific cadence when he got to reveal an answer he found funny or cute.”
