Musical Sunday


2020 continued its list of sad news this week as we learned of the death of legendary TV figure Alex Trebek, host of the popular game show Jeopardy for 37 seasons and a total of 8,200 individual episodes. The show was wildly popular and inspired lots of imitators and satire - notably the extremely NSFW "Celebrity Jeopardy" takeoffs that aired on Saturday Night Live and often featured a very obscene parody of Sean Connery, who also passed away this month.

For Musical Sunday this week, we reach back to an early satire by Weird Al Yankovic in which the Greg Kihn tune "Our Love's in Jeopardy" became "I Lost on Jeopardy" ...



Oh, well ... at least Weird Al wasn't the only complete loser ... perhaps a future episode of Celebrity Jeopardy airing after next January will feature another one.

Have a good day and enjoy the rest of your weekend. More thoughts coming.
