The SNL Celebrity Jeopardy sketch reached peak absurdity in the episode where Will Ferrell’s Alex Trebek tried to guide the contestants through a painfully simple prompt: “Let It Snow.” Despite the clue being impossible to miss, the panel of exaggerated celebrity caricatures fumbled their answers in spectacular fashion. The sketch highlights the perfect chaos of the recurring bit—Trebek’s growing frustration, the contestants’ clueless confidence, and the escalating misreads that made every round

'Jeopardy' announcer Johnny Gilbert joked he and host Alex Trebek “have outlasted everybody” as the “only two original people” still working on the long-running quiz show since its start 36 years ago. Our behind-the-scenes look airs ABC Thursday at 8/7c. abcn.ws/2QcEIAN | ABC 20/20
