The whatstrending.com Opening Toss-Up story.
For the first time ever since the Ken Jennings era way back in 2004, James Holzhauer is turning and turning victories into closer and closer wins with each day passing. Not only did he smash the 1-day single game record for the most winnings, but he is over the $1 million dollar mark and looking to nab KenJen off the record books. However, America's #1 quiz show is laying down a few ground rules for all future contestants who want to be like Charlotte flair in Wrestlemania this year. Here's why.
eopardy! contestants are dropping some knowledge about what is and is not allowed on the show as far as wager amounts, and it's pretty interesting.
It all started with Jeopardy!'s current big winner, James Holzhauer, who broke the $1 million earned mark on the show on Tuesday.
Holzhauer has got a lot of attention for his huge streak and his betting knowledge that allows him to make sensible wagers.
Former contestant Ken Jennings commented on this on Twitter, saying he also made "small, sensible Jeopardy wagers."
Someone responded, saying they liked how he "wagered $69 on every final jeopardy."
Then, Jennings revealed that wagering $69 is forbidden on the show. "As of last year. not even joking."
Holzhauer also tweeted on the comment, saying: there are five banned wagers from the show.
Actually, there are five banned wagers. This is probably the most innocuous one. https://t.co/5Yt0Y9JbKX — James Holzhauer (@James_Holzhauer)

Those other wagers include $666, $14, $88 and $1488. The first is due to the relation on Satan, which is well known in the punk/metal scene. The other three are associated with white supremacy, which is why they're banned.
Even though Jeopardy! isn't in to 69 jokes or Satanic rituals, you can still bet $420 on the show if you're into betting funny numbers.
After this commercial word, a Millionaire crossover to sink your teeth into. That's.......when Game Show Live returns.

Madison: Some members of our viewing audience will receive..
Tickets to Public Domain: The Musical.
The characters of nearly every beloved animated movie musical (from “The Little Mermaid” to “The Lion King” to “Frozen”) have not always been under the same house of mouse: they began in fairy tales and stories from the public domain.
But what about the public domain characters who have never appeared in an animated movie? In “Public Domain: The Musical,” characters from the bottom of the barrel audition with original songs to show why they deserve to have their own time in the spotlight.
Anyone in the LA area should click on this:
Now back to a guy who's in the public eye everywhere he goes, Pierre Kelly!

Wedding Cake Championship, the top-tier cake competition hosted by Tara Lipinski and Johnny Weir returns on Monday, June 3rd at 10pm ET/PT with new engaged couples looking for their dream wedding cake and a new batch of elite bakers who hope their talents will deliver.
The baking duos will be challenged as they whisk through difficult cake challenges and face extreme requests from real-life couples that test the limits of their skill and creativity. Judging the action week-to-week are baking extraordinaire Kimberly Bailey, Chopped's Maneet Chauhan, and Say Yes to the Dress host Randy Fenoli. The team to rise above will earn a $25,000 grand prize and the title of Wedding Cake Champion!
"Tara Lipinski and Johnny Weir are the ultimate hosting couple for this celebratory competition with their easy rapport and play-by-play commentary on all the baking action," said Courtney White, President, Food Network. "These two cake enthusiasts are pulling out all the stops this season as the bakers craft incredible custom wedding cakes in this edge-of-your-seat wedding cake extravaganza."
In each of the four hour-long episodes, the teams will face two rounds of challenges. First, they must tackle wedding cake toppers, where one team will earn a special advantage in the next round when the bakers must design a personalized wedding cake for a real-life couple's big day! The pressure is on for the three remaining teams in the grand finale on Monday, June 24th at 10pm ET/PT, when they are challenged to create the most over-the-top, impressive cake for Bachelor in Paradise's Ashley Iaconetti and Jared Haibon.

You've heard of the Joker's Wild, right? Well......
The quiz show Joker features reversals of fortune from start to finish, as contestants win and lose money at breakneck speeds right up until the end.
The series has been licensed into a handful of countries by Global Agency, which has seen the format picking up steam as of late after being in the catalog for six years.
Joker was created by Erdi Yapim, one of the co-creators of Global Agency's hit daily strip Shopping Monsters. The series debuted in 2013 on TRT in Turkey, garnering strong ratings for the channel across more than 50 episodes.
The company's long-time client Hervé Hubert then came to Turkey to shoot a French pilot, which caught the interest of France 2. The channel aired 300-plus episodes to much success about four years ago, but gave the show time to rest two years back. Joker has since returned on France 2, now airing weekly instead of daily.
Izzet Pinto, founder and CEO of Global Agency, says that after its solid performances in Turkey and France, the format "was on pause" for a little while, since quiz shows were proving a tougher sell in the marketplace. Much like the changing fates of the players in the series itself, the format has now seen a resurgence in interest.
Poland's Super Polsat licensed the show and has aired 80 episodes across two seasons, with a third in consideration. Having its sights set on breaking into Western Europe, Global Agency sold the format in Portugal last year, with 200 episodes commissioned. Joker has since been airing every day on RTP. Slovenia is the most recent country to come on board, with public broadcaster TV SLO 1 having launched the show in February for 25 weekly episodes in prime time.
"The channel is super happy with the viewing figures," says Pinto. "Some episodes have reached over a 40 percent share; so almost half of the country watched the show. It's the highest rated program on the channel."
With the momentum continuing like a domino effect, in the last six months, Global Agency has secured a slew of option deals. This includes across Europe such as in Italy, Spain and Germany, as well as in countries across the Middle East.
In the format, players are asked ten questions and have seven "jokers" to help them eliminate wrong answers from the multiple choices offered. For each correct response, the player moves up the money tree. A wrong answer means they lose three jokers, and when the jokers have run out, contestants drop down three pegs on the money tree. Whatever their position is when the last question is answered determines their winnings.

The real live online quiz truth in real live online quiz news, suckers!
As publishers struggle with short attention spans, a local trivia startup has found a way to help companies engage their audiences through games.
A new competition called ITK — short for "in the know" — launched Tuesday from Charleston-based Stream.
The new game was designed in the style of "Family Feud," where players answer a simple question by trying to guess what the majority of people will say.
Anyone can play the game on "The Q" app, but Stream's main goal is to sell the games to publishers, who could customize them for their brands.
Will Jamieson, CEO of Stream, first released The Q trivia game at the end of 2017 as a competitor to HQ Trivia, another popular game where users can tune in daily for scheduled competitions. Stream's key capability is in streaming video to large, live audiences.
But Jamieson shifted his strategy last year when he realized he could sell access to the gaming platform to publishers and other companies trying to keep audiences' attention. With the trivia game, users keep their eyes on the screen for 15 minutes, on average. Stream's customers can now build their own interactive game shows, with content specific to their brands. .
About a week ago, hangtime's trivia games are no more........some of it actually can still be in the Ringside Wrestling App, instead we get......

And that sadly was the real live online quiz truth in real live online quiz news, suckers!!!!!
(song stops)
I'm counting on you to call this next segment......
Buzz-GSN where we ask you guys on the GSN facebook page everything and anything.
Gary Zimmerman will begin the segment.
"I like watching the game show channel but I have one problem. You have the show Family Feud on TOO MUCH. Most of the other program are very good but l can’t watch Steve Harvey any more. Every time I turn on this channel he is on and then I switch channels so I don’t have to watch him anymore."
Maybe he's.....one sided? Christine Zaptowsky gets the next one.
"Please put COMMON KNOWLEDGE back on at 10:00PM eastern time. Although I like America Says, my mom and I love watching Joey at night, which is the only time we can see him. Please change it back. Thank you."
Maybe Don Paradis takes his turn.
"Dang you are taking all the good shows off and replacing them with the new ones that stink. No more baggage, my fav. What's up with all that?"
Making money to banish a few to late night. On to Denise Hefforn.
"I wish you would show less family feud or put that on in the middle of the night and put shows like idiotest and emogenius on during the evening hours so we can see them"
Yep. That might work. We go to Barb Dau.
"Joey fatone or what ever his name is, is the worst. And you are beating America Says and Common Knowledge into the ground. Just like Family Feud. My God. Can you offer a little variety???"
At least a few from the 90's will help. We go on to Jason Martin.
"Watched “chase” today where the beast challenged three teenagers and won with one second on the clock, only problem is you guys restarted the clock late twice. I ran the 2 minute timer several times on my iPhone and beast should have lost between 2-3 seconds on every test."
See? The Chase here in the US was a must watch show. Let's end it with Stephanie Cervantes.
"If a team on America Says doesn’t use the skip button by the last round of questions, it’d be cool if they could earn 5 extra seconds on the clock!"
Wouldn't that be so nice?
Time for a Gamestop Game Break. Stare your eyes at this Idiotest......
We'll let you stay silent and think after this Google Play music interlude as we kick off the class of 2009 reunion with the host of this year's Billboard Music Awards.....Kelly Clarkson.
So.......did you pick the least spoken language? How about if I let Snapkay reveal the answer via photo.......
There. Everyone this weekend wanted to go see that new Avengers movie that shattered the box office in one weekend and our PYL chief mechanic of the Big Board Stewdippin had this reaction after seeing it.
