Setup and instructions
- Patrick Stewart.
- You're going to pick a category. You're going to name the number of points you want to do. And then you're going to answer always in the form of a question. When I read the question, you will each get to buzz in. So to buzz in, just make the most obnoxious noise that you can think of.

Title or premise: a P-Stew themed game of Jeopardy. Activity premise: Patrick Stewart. Rules: You're going to pick a category. You're going to name the number of points you want to do. And then you're going to answer always in the form of a question. When I read the question, you will each get to buzz in. So to buzz in, just make the most obnoxious noise that you can think of. Scoring mechanism: ordinary values: 100 200; additional category: Auditioning is hard.; additional value: 300 Result qualification: No, they're points. Activity description: So now we're going to play a P-Stew themed game of Jeopardy. I'm sorry. Or what's P-Stew's like a healthy... Is that a winter soup? Patrick Stewart. Oh. Oh. Are you on a cool name basis with him? I want to be. So anyway, you know the rules of Jeopardy. We're going to... You're going to pick a category. You're going to name the number of points you want to do. And then you're going to answer always in the form of a question. And Kenny, since you're a guest, you are going to get to choose the category first. Are you going to be doing this in the styling of Alex Trebek? Are you going to be doing like a Ken Jennings deal or that chick from Big Bang Theory? My Ian Bollock. My Ian the Alex. Whatever. I was really hoping to go Pat Sajak on this one. That's the Wheel of Fortune guy? Yeah. Pat Sajak is more my intellectual speed. Look, there's a wheel spinning. Should we have a buzzer? Should I go ding, ding, ding, ding, ding? Yeah, that's a good question. Oh, I forgot that there's like a dinger. Should Brad do haunted dog noise every time he's dinging in? Yeah, should I go booba, booba, booba? Yes, please. So what you're going to do is... Booba, booba, booba. Kenny will pick the first category. When I read the question, you will each get to buzz in. Why does Kenny get to go first? Because he's the guest. He's just picking a category. He's not going first. Yeah, he's just... Although I forgot how Jeopardy worked and I was just going to let him answer the question. You really don't know what game we're playing. You all know the rules to Jeopardy. I have a question. You said we just pick a number and that's the number of points we get? I love that. I will be doing that. I was going to clarify... 4,680. I was going to clarify the point system. So anyway... No one believes you. You're a mess. So to buzz in, just make the most obnoxious noise that you can think of. Oh, I'm Brad. I'm here to talk. The categories are... Auditioning is hard. TMI. Potent potables. And some very 90s shit. Hey, Curtis. You want to tell us how many questions are in each category and all that kind of stuff? That's exactly what I was about to do. I'm just going to fire from the hip. I don't believe he was going to do that. Kenny, can you do potent potables first for 25? Every category is worth either 100 points or 200 points. And only... It's an odd number of questions. Only the category of additioning is hard has a 300 point option. Yeah, of course. That makes sense. That's the daily double. All right. Let's get started. This is perfect. I'm ready to win. This is like when a middle schooler tries to do a Jeopardy thing for class. I feel like every question is going to be so hard. We're going to be like, we don't know the answers to any of this. It's either going to be super hard or super hard. Definitely. Yeah. You got it. You get what this is. Is it fair to assume that the numbers do not matter? No. They don't matter. All right. I'm going for some very 90s shit for 200. Ooh. Okay. Oh, you're good. That's like a smart Jeopardy strategy to start with the heavy hitter.

Answer qualification: He was Beast in X-Men 3. He was also in Days of Future Past. Ending or payoff: Well, so concludes an impeccable game of Jeopardy. Activity description: He was in Frasier. I thought about it for a second and I was like, well. Can you name all of the productions he was in? The five? So I was like, okay, well, he's in this episode of Frasier. I know that Kelsey Grammer is in one episode of Star Trek, The Next Generation. And I was like, oh, he was Beast in X-Men. What? That would be cool. He was Beast in X-Men 3. He was Beast. He was. And that was, and I was like, that's, I've got three. Wasn't Beast in one of the first two X-Men? He was also in Days of Future Past. He reprised his role as Beast for a game. Oh, yeah, he did for like a cameo. Yeah. Yes. So was that the fifth one? That was it. Okay, because I was like, I couldn't think of another one, but I was like, I got those. So I was like, I might be off by, I thought I might be off by one. I forgot about his cameo in that last X-Men. Good for you, Kelsey. I did not see you being the Beast from anything we've seen in Frasier so far. Apparently, definitely didn't see that movie because you didn't know. I definitely didn't see X-Men 3. X-Men 3 is not good. It's not a good movie, so you can easily skip it. People do like X-Men 2, though. They do like X-Men 2. Well, I would say this Beast, if I remember from the cartoon show, he was always like, he was a beast, but he was also like intelligent and like a scientist. So I could kind of see Kelsey Grammer. You put him in some blue hairy makeup and say, act like a smart scientist, man. Amazingly, not the prettiest thing we've talked about in this episode. Well, so concludes an impeccable game of Jeopardy.
