Million Dollar Ideas

You know how they produce a highlight video for every major sports champion? Can someone do the same thing for Ken Jennings’ Jeopardy! performance?

Obviously, his first and last episodes are the bookends. Other things that should be included:

  • close calls (i.e. where he was in danger of losing)
  • reaction shots of competitors looking cold amazed at what they are witnessing
  • audacious Daily Doubles
  • where he just cold dominates a round
  • wacky or just funny bloopers

Things that should not be included:  I want to see as little of Trebek as possible. Sorry, but Ferrell and SNL ruined him for me.

I will note that I only saw a couple of episodes of Jennings run when I was back home with my parents. Nevertheless, I was duly impressed; he was pretty amazing. Also, I have not recently read anything about his run while composing this post, so I don’t actually know if he had any close calls or bloopers to comprise the video.

Seriously, I would pay up to $19.95 for this, and I bet six or seven other people would too.

Lastly, if I sent this to Jeopardy’s!’s producers (I think Merv Griffin is involved somehow) would they: (a) ignore it, (b) do it for real or (c) do it, but just for me, personally (i.e. create a DVD specifically for me. (c) would be awesome beyond words.
