February 23[edit]

Impersonated Sean Connery’s Illegal Actions[edit]

Aside from defacing a category panel, what else did the impersonated Sean Connery do on the “Celebrity Jeopardy!” segment of Saturday Night Live that would get a real world game show contestant disqualified? --Alec Borden (talk) 03:43, 23 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I'm guessing you are are talking about Darrell Hammond and his send up of SC in but one example here. Simple answer is almost everything and it might be easier to ask "what didn't he do that would get a real world game show contestant disqualified?" MarnetteD|Talk 03:52, 23 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Turd Ferguson could probably get away with more than "Connery" in real life, being portrayed by the mentally-challenged younger brother of Canadian broadcasting legend Neil Macdonald. For some reason, the combined standards and practices of North American television and journalistic conduct codes seem to simply have no effect on that guy's ability to upset the host and still have his weirdly disturbing-but-true pseudoquestions air. Good luck to CBS producers alone, even after Trebek is gone! InedibleHulk (talk) 05:51, 23 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The Background to History[edit]

On Monty Python's Matching Tie and Handkerchief, did Neil Innes do all the singing about medieval agrarian history? —Tamfang (talk) 18:05, 23 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
