I’ll take "Cool TV Shows" for $400, Alex
Thursday, December 28th, 2006
OT reader Sara wrote in last night with the following:
‘I didn’t know if you all saw “Jeopardy!” tonight, but one of the categories in the Jeopardy round was “TV Shows by Character.” This was the $400 clue.’
What I want to know is, does Sara always have her camera ready to take pics of her TV whenever something Office-related comes on? ;)
It’s so awesome to see that font and color with those names. What a great tip.

22 | stanley the manley Tue. Aug. 7, 2007 at 10:24amI hate I missed that! I probably would have had a heart attack, though, so I suppose it’s for the best.
21 | Arlie ♥ Jim Sun. Jun. 10, 2007 at 2:41pmHee, I don’t *always* have my camera ready, but it helps that I have a TiVo! Rewind and slow-mo is my friend.
20 | .sara Tue. Jan. 2, 2007 at 2:46pmThat’s not the first time the Office has been mentioned on Jeopardy. I remember watching it a few months ago and seeing something along the lines of, “This show on NBC stars Steve Carell.”
Interesting.
19 | Chelsea Mon. Jan. 1, 2007 at 3:07pmThat’s pretty cool. Of course, the one night I don’t have Jeopardy on, there is a question on there I could actually answer correctly.
18 | C Sat. Dec. 30, 2006 at 2:55pmI totally saw this and thouht the same thing about, OMGosh, I wonder if they’ll do I show I watch all the time like “The Office” and they totally did. That’s really cool Sara was able to get a screenshot, though. Haha!
17 | Jules Fri. Dec. 29, 2006 at 5:53pmhaha I watch jeopardy every night with my family when I’m home and I don’t think I’ve ever answered a question fast and more enthusiastically than that one. soooo cool!
16 | Markus Thu. Dec. 28, 2006 at 3:52pmThat’s so neat. I wish I hadn’t missed it last night!
15 | bubblewrap Thu. Dec. 28, 2006 at 10:18am“yeah i was watching last night and i yelled “THE OFFICE!!!” when i saw the names. my mom was like, “wow, allie, good job”. i went on to argue that my obsession with the office could’ve won me $400.”
Ooh, so sorry, you must phrase your answer in the form of a question. You LOSE $400.

10 | JimHalpertIsLife Thu. Dec. 28, 2006 at 9:05amahhh i have a good story about this!
no one in my family got the mail yesterday, and me, being a teenager, was the obvious choice to have to get up and get it. We were eating dinner and jeopardy was on (we werent really watching it.. it was just randomly on) and i said “how about whoever gets the first question right gets to pick who gets the mail” and my parents said like.. whatever- fine. The other categories were topics like archaeology and famous historical women, so i was hoping the next person would pic television.. and my dad then says to me “you know.. you better hope this is a question about the office (joking) because thats the only thing you can get”. and boom. that question appears. it was crazy.
my dad got the mail.

6 | big fan Thu. Dec. 28, 2006 at 7:21amash - it wasn’t “cool tv shows”. That’s the title of this post. The Jeopardy category was “TV Shows by Character”
5 | joe Thu. Dec. 28, 2006 at 7:16amI took a picture too *blush*. But in my defense, it was from my phone and I paused the TV :)
