Jeopardy! Be Foolin' (Apr. 1, 2016)

Jeopardy! placed 10 fun changes for their April Fools 2016 episode. Did you catch them all?

[@dab7271]

In 1997, for April Fool's Day, Alex Trebek and Pat Sajak switched plaes. Trebek hosted Wheel of Fortune and Sajak hosted Jeopardy.

[@NixillShadowFox]

Not only that, but the Wheel hosts were the two contestants of that day. Mrs. Sajak took over letter-activating duties.

Wasn't there a more recent one? I remember seeing one where he could barely spin the wheel. But I do remember the one where Pat and Vanna were contestants on their own show. I don't think I've seen the one where Pat hosted Jeopardy

Final Jeopardy! category is "Trinidadian Amatuer Icktheologists". Answer right after this.

[@robertdubs9466]

I remember Wheel of Fortune did something like that back on April 1, 2010. 1. Pat and Vanna entered on opposite side of each other. 2. Pat, Vanna, and then-announcer Charlie (months before his death) were in the contestant's spots at the beginning. 3. Vanna was on the wrong side of the first puzzle. 4. The BANKRUPT wedge was misspelled. 5. Pat was wearing an earring at one point. 6. Charlie, instead of Vanna introduced a puzzle 7. The "Final Spin" was from 1992. 8. Pat wore a different suit during the bonus round. 9. Pat and Vanna appeared in the audience. 10. Pat and Vanna wore contestant name tags at the end.

JEPARDY! 0:23 Cracks me up every time

[@jacobvanantwerp2001]

Found all 10 changes: 1. At the beginning, a clip from 2004 shows host Alex Trebek coming onstage without wearing any pants. 2. When Oliver finds the Daily Double, the contestants' scores are mirrored. 3. During the contestant conversations, the _Jeopardy!_ logo is missing the O, meaning it's misspelled as _Jepardy!._ 4. After the response "The Euphonium" is shared... Watson is there?? What the heck? 5. When Alex shares the correct response, "The Mambo Kings," it was shown in a clip from 1998 (when he had his mustache). 6. When Milton finds one of the Daily Doubles, it appears as usual, albiet upside-down. 7. When Milton finds the other Daily Double, the Wheel of Fortune puzzle chime is played instead upon its reveal. 8. Todd's response "What is turquoise?" in the Rocks & Minerals category was replaced by the same one from Ken Jennings in an earlier episode. 9. When Final Jeopardy! starts, a clip from the Kuldvillak (Jeopardy! in the European Union, which uses Euros €) is briefly shown before fading back. 10. Last but not least, when Milton loses $2,000 for his incorrect response, the Wheel of Fortune Bankrupt sound effect is heard.

Alex Trebek’s like: “What are you? What in the world’s going on here, please?”

Rip Alex Trebek! 😢 😢 😢 😢

RIP Alex

[@liamcarmody4217]

I remember seeing this episode

[@patrickwilson1459]

My dad said at the part where Alex walked out on stage without his pants on "he sure has nice legs".

[@jonathanfalkowsky672]

I love how the sound effects and editing were messed up for April fools days

[@CaseyQuotes]

The "wrong" sound sounds HD.

[@SuperMario127.]

00:16 the numbers are reversed!

[@pm41224]

When asked to guess "a prized variety of [which] ornamental stone mined in the American southwest is robin's egg blue," Todd replies, "What is turquoise?" That was his answer, but it got cut out of the episode and replaced with the same response made by Ken Jennings from an earlier episode. Another oddity.

[@Daffyfan2006]

+pm41224 Oh, okay. So Ken did give that response. I thought the voice was just dubbed, but I guess we really did hear that at one point. Probably the same deal with the Watson computer.

[@pm41224]

There are a total of four instances in this episode where the producers decided to cut and paste scenes from previous episodes. Except for the fourth and final one - when Final Jeopardy begins (clue was "Of Asia's 10 most populous urban areas, this city on an island is the only one south of the equator"), it switches to an episode of _Kuldvillak_ (the show's Estonian counterpart, correct me if I'm wrong) for, like, 4 or 5 seconds, before switching back to regular _Jeopardy!_.

[@danbarker4857]

That bankrupt sound effect in FJ is not a bad idea, maybe it is.

[@jacobvanantwerp2001]

Couldn't they have just used it in case someome bet it all and was wrong?

[@marvinjohnson7523]

I remember this show it made me laugh RIP alex

[@AWB_Official-r6t]

0:56 Lol 😆 Wheel of Fortune puzzle sound 😂

[@jonathanfalkowsky672]

Wasnt that a bankruptcy sound effect from wheel of fortune for that last one?

[@jacobvanantwerp2001]

Yes.

[@JasonDelarosa2000]

SpongeBob's favorite holiday 😂

[@212Elevators]

It would be funny if the WOF puzzle board came in and the Bankrupt watermark on the player's screen in final.

Puzzle chime and Bankrupt

That was great. Thank you! :D

Jeopardy will be in brazil

[@jimsdog23]

Honestly I thought this was a ytp

[@930bestvideos]

You missed one. During the contestant interviews (which were exceptionally funny) the Jeopardy! logo in the lower left hand side was spelt incorrectly.

[@isitbriannieves]

He didn't miss it. Check my previous comment. 0:23 has no "O," it's just "Jepardy!"

[@930bestvideos]

+Brian Nieves oh I see

[@suesakornshop6840]

I missed a couple of them.

[@princess1goad70]

[@Daffyfan2006]

+Sues AkornShop I caught them all the night it aired except for 'Jeprady' and 'Final Kuldvillak' whatever the heck that means.

[@suesakornshop6840]

You did well then Daffy!

[@KevinPiland]

+Daffyfan2006 Kuldvillak is a different version of Jeopardy from a country not many know about. Look it up to learn more.

[@Daffyfan2006]

+Kevin Piland Thanks for letting me know. I saw a few foreign versions of "Wheel" online, but not "Jeopardy!" Except would that version be in English? I'll have to check that out.

[@freakfoxvevo7915]

I wonder if any of the contestants were in on this

[@MattJr4793]

probably not

[@212Elevators]

Answer: DoDoDoDo!

[@userfoxfan2023]

alex said in final jeopardy "asian cities is our category for final today and here is the clue" *is it just me or did he just say final accidentally or this counts as a april fool change*

[@josiahsmalley5640]

LOL! XD!

[@deeanna3563]

lol so funny

[@madisonmensbackupchannel6096]

PLEASE TELL ME ALEX WAS WEARING SHORTS! BECAUSE IF NOT, THAT'S INAPPROPRIATE.

[@bluebear1985]

That was just a bit of a prank on Alex's part prior to the final of their Ultimate Tournament of Champions. He claims he did it to "ease some pressure" for the three finalists in the last match. After the audience and the three participants got a bit of a laugh out of it, Alex went to put some pants on so they could open the show properly.
