The Talking Through The Medias opening toss up story.
Jeopardy! has officially entered the post-Alex Trebek era with two permanent hosts splitting duties behind the podium for the biggest trivia game show on the planet. But Trebek's impact on the show remains, and two years after his death the syndicated show paid tribute to the longtime host on Tuesday.
The moment came not during actual play, but as a warmup game of sorts between Matt Amodio, Mattea Roach, and Amy Schneider. As a bit of an interlude to the Tournament of Champions, three of Season 38's biggest winners played each other to keep their skills sharp despite all getting automatic byes into the tournament's semifinals.
It also, smartly, meant that any election coverage cutting into syndicated airings would not have viewers missing action crucial to the tournament's results. That lack of stakes meant the game had a bit looser of a feel, and the trivia for some categories was more, well, trivial, than is often the case. Which is why the show had an entire category about Trebek's life.
The pairings and dates for the semifinals are as follows:
- Monday, Nov. 14 through Wednesday, Nov. 16 Finals Games 1-3 If necessary: Thursday, Nov. 17 through Tuesday, Nov. 22 Finals Game 4-7 (Season 37)

Maya Rudolph and Amy Poehler reunite to host and executive produce "Baking It" Season 2 on Peacock, which will kick off with a lively celebrity holiday special on Dec. 12 at 10 p.m. ET/PT on NBC.
Fred Armisen, Kristen Bell, Nicole Richie & JB Smoove are joining this friendly competition to "cele-bake" the holidays and raise some dough for their favorite charities. Maya and Amy will keep their friends on their toes with thrilling twists throughout the episode.
The celebrities draw inspiration for their baking from beloved holiday traditions and family recipes. Their tasty treats include:
· Austrian Schaumrollen and Pickle Soup made by Kristen Bell, whose competitive nature led her to make two delectable dishes.
· Sticky Apple Cake made by holiday lover Nicole Richie, who starts her festive season as early as September.
· Vegan Banana Pudding Cake made by self-proclaimed "Cake Architect" JB Smoove, who made up his recipe on the spot.
· Venezuelan Hallacas made by Fred Armisen, a recipe he got from his mother, although he has never baked before. Though it's his first time baking, Armisen is a seasoned vet at NBC. Viewers can also catch him on the "That's My Jam" holiday special airing Dec 5.
Dropping the same day as the NBC holiday special, "Baking It" Season 2 premieres Dec. 12 on Peacock, with a new batch of bakers competing in teams in a series of captivating challenges hilariously designed by Maya and Amy themselves. These challenges will test the competitors across a variety of bakes for the chance to win some serious money and the adoration of the beloved "Baking It" judges, a panel of opinionated grandmothers!

I'm taking a segment of your time to bring you this new EP album.
Here's what it's about:
BLACK FRIDAY is a dark, comedic satire; imagine “Nightmare Before Christmas” meets “Rocky Horror Picture Show,” with an injection of Huxley's A Brave New World.
A post-apocalyptic tale of Romance, Revenge, Murder, Conspiracies & Beauty Pageants… and it all takes place inside a New Jersey Costco (called “ShopMo,” for obvious reasons.)
And by November 18th: You presave this:
