If You Can't Be Funny, Get Smart - Ken Jennings to get his own game show
"Comedy Central may not have Dave Chappelle. But it has Ken Jennings.
The Viacom-owned cable channel announced yesterday that it is developing a game show for the winningest and most famous geek ever to play 'Jeopardy!,' which is distributed by Viacom-owned King World.
'Jeopardy!' champion Ken Jennings will star in a new Comedy Central game show, the cable channel announced yesterday. (King World Productions)
In an incredible coincidence, yesterday was also the first day Jennings was to defend his 'Jeopardy!' title, facing two former champions in the $2 million, three-part 'Ultimate Tournament of Champions.' Also, coincidentally, this is the May sweeps, when ratings and big announcements count for something." (more at link)
Duh. Whore that guy out, Viacom! Heck, put him in a steel cage match with Jerod from the Subway commercials!
