"Matt Lauer may replace Alex Trebek on Jeopardy." I hate that headline so much. I don't really care about Jeopardy (unless Leonard's involved), but I do care about that smarmy Canadian Alex Trebek, the world's most perfect game show host, probably because of SNL's Celebrity Jeopardy series throughout the 1990s and into the 2000s.
I can't look at IRL Trebek without thinking of Will Ferrell's Trebek and Turd Ferguson and Darrell Hammond's Sean Connery and "Drummers Named Ringo," and immediately start laughing. That's probably not what Trebek wants his legacy to be, but I, for one, would be honored to be associated with the phrase "Ape Tit." Anyway, check out Splitsider's collection of every Celebrity Jeopardy sketch, and then look at some of the series' best GIFs below.

This is also a testament to the greatness of Norm MacDonald
Yes! As a 30 year old woman, I know Tina and Amy are supposed to be my favorite Weekend Update anchors but it’s Norm.
On a bad day, I will YouTube every appearance on one of Conan’s shows I can find. Nothing will ever top the Courtney Thorne-Smith one though.
forever my favorite recurring sketch. i laughed just as hard going through these just now as i did the first time i saw them.
If they had devoted an entire half hour to this skit whenever they did it, I would have been very okay with that.
is anyone else not seeing the videos show up on that splitsider page?
i think they might be expired, that page is a few years old.
“I’ll take The Rapists for $300.”
“That’s Therapists, Mr. Connery.”
Easily my favorite thing they’ve ever done
I’ll take the penis mightier.
“Texas with a dollar sign in front of it” may be my favorite thing in history.
I’ll take Jap Anus Relations.
That’s Japan US Relations.
Now I just miss Norm MacDonald being in things besides twitter.
I still find it hard to believe that Ferrell never broke character during those skits. Not one damn time.
Bill Cosby, what was your answer? Frazzle Snazzle.
And how much did you wager? Bleeble Blabble.
I love that Tom Hanks was willing to be so self-deprecating. Also, I always wished they had the real Sean Connery on it to play a different character.
What’s the difference between you and a mallard with a cold?
One’s a sick duck… I can’t remember how it ends but your mother’s a whore.
Also, you usually can’t go wrong with Trebek’s opening statements.
“Before we begin the Double Jeopardy round, I’d like to ask our contestants, once again, please refrain from using ethnic slurs.”
BUCK FUTTER!
