Is it another episode of Fleming in it?

@@derekbrouillard7143the special has some of his highlights outside of Jeopardy!

Art did a better job imo , but I get your point.

Don Pardo went on to become the announcer for "Saturday Night Live". He also made a cameo appearance on Weird Al Yankavik's parody song "I Lost on Jeopardy!".

@@raymondhopwood9393 He also announced both this and The Price is Right, two of the longest running game shows of all time (so did Johnny Gilbert).

If it wasn't for Art Fleming, we probably wouldn't have Jeopardy! or it's fan base to help ratings.

@@KiddBloo86 Merv Griffin and his wife was responsible for Jeopardy. They had a discussion on a flight from New York to Deluth, MN. They discussed the fact that there were no quiz shows since the scandals of the 1950’s where the contestants were given the answers, his wife said “Lets give them the answers, but they have to come up with the questions!” Merv pitched the idea to NBC and the bought the show without a pilot. The reasons for the name Jeopardy was when a prospective sponsor told him, there were not enough jeopardies in the show.

We got only CBS. We had rabbit 🐰 ears.

@@TheSaltydog07 I recall rabbit ears as well, but I guess we were "high fallutin'" since we had an outside antennae! LOL

Wow, that’s a remarkable memory. We lived in the suburbs of our stations’ city - in sight of the transmitters a couple of miles away in nearby hills, so reception was not an issue (through high winds still gave us those ghost images.) … One clarification - Julia Child was the French Chef. It was Graham Kerr who was the Galloping Gourmet.

@@brianarbenz1329 You're right, my bad. IDK how I managed to get the two confused, since we mostly watched chef Julia, and rarely watched chef Graham. Further, as a teen/young adult, I did enjoy watching Louisiana cooks Justin Wilson, and chef Paul Prudhomme. I learned a great deal from these two as I came along in my journey with and for the love of southern cooking at my mother's and grandmother's sides.😉

@@ginadisbrow9324 My Mom and I _loved_ watching Justin Wilson, I gaaa-ron-teee!

He is a Hollywood national treasure, and worthy of a star on the 'Walk of Fame' if not already.

He had been an announcer for NBC Radio as early 1937.

He also sadly broke the news on NBC that President Kennedy was shot.

@@adamantman3200 Also broke the news on NBC that President John F. Kennedy was shot. Pardo had a lifetime contract with the network.

Don Pardo had a lifetime contract with NBC. Only the very best get such an honor.

Truly

Me too

Worthy of correct spelling of his name: Art Fleming

They actually did complete the board in an episode here on UKposts. See the Ann/Larry/Norma game (show #2574). Oh and also you’re very welcome.

He was on camera in a corner of the WNBC news studio when he was the Announcer for Live At Five on Channel 4 in New York.

Glad to hear your perspective

Back then, fast food was a treat you got once a week, soda didn't have high fructose corn syrup, and preservatives in food weren't really a thing yet.

That is a reference from "Airplane! II: The sequel" as Art Fleming has a cameo role in the film.

As you may have noticed that his son in law said that he still has it as of today. (I don’t know if it is either in an audio recording, home movie recording, or Full Audio and Video Recording.) The question that Art Fleming asked was “Since addition of Alaska and Hawaii, our geographic center is in this state.”

I agree

@@StabelliA Stranger things have happened, UKposts has become a place where lots of "Lost" Media has turned up everything from commercial promos to full movies. In fact a whole bunch of lost Woolery episodes have turned up here, but sadly still very few.

@@StabelliA a copy existed in the early 2000s, since clips of it were used in "E! True Hollywood Story"

How many people were on both versions of Jeopardy?

@@DTD110865 Almost certainly none, though that would be interesting to find out. Some of the original Jeopardy contestants may have been allowed to try out for the later version. But even for people who pass the try outs (I know of two people who tried out), it's a very long shot to ever get on the show.

@@smashwhammyyes indeed, Burns Cameron, who as a matter of fact appeared on the 2000th episode of Fleming’s Jeopardy!

It’s unfortunate that not many people are interested in seeing what is ultimately the better Jeopardy!

It was actually just a couple of men pulling the cards but good on you for speculating.

Maybe they were back in the day???

The screwed around with the format. Dropping one contestant for Double Jeopardy and replacing Final Jeopardy with the ridiculous Super Jeopardy round ... people wanted the show they loved, not that.

No it’s Don pardo

She wasn't the first, nor the last, contestant who wasn't able to defend their title due to the show being cancelled. I'm sure there is something in the paperwork that states this risk.
