I think it’s safe to say that of all the best game shows in TV history, Jeopardy! holds itself to a certain standard. Fans are constantly fact-checking the clues, contestants are called out if they’re perceived as too cocky or disrespectful, and heck, even Matt Amodio — one of Jeopardy!’s biggest winners — once had to fight off the pitchforks for responding to clues with “What’s …?” instead of “What is …?” Well, throw all that decorum out the window, because it turns out the show is all about “These nuts.”
What a strange sentence to write, especially in regards to Jeopardy!, but it is the truth. Someone on the game show’s team had the utterly brilliant idea to pull every clip of hosts Alex Trebek and Ken Jennings saying, “These nuts,” and I think somebody deserves a raise.
