On "Whose Line is it Anyway?", they were playing a game where you could only speak in song titles, and keeping with the food trend, Collin looked over and said, "Eat it!".

Just not to long ago I was watching "Who Wants to be a Millioniare" and they asked a question about Weird Al. They basically asked: The song parodist named Alfred Matthew Yankovic goes by what other name? I think that is how the question went and of course Weird Al was one of the answers and the lady got it right and got $1000 for it.

That'd be funny if it was for $1,000,000! Even more funny if he/she used all her help lines.

It sounds like from this topic that Eat It is the most recognized (played) song done by Al (duh!)

The other day on Jeopardy they had a clue about Al as well. In the category Valedictorians for $200 they said this musical parodist graduated from Lynnwood [sic] High in 1975 [sic].

Jeopardy clue writers are usually more attentive to details.

They had a question on Who wants to be a Millonare today about Al. I think the question was something like; What does the parody artist Alfred Matthew Yankovic go by?

The answer of course was C Weird Al.

For those of you who saw that Millionaire episode, what were the other three choices for the Al question?

Sorry I can't remember what the other three answers were but they all had the name Al in them but I think they were pretty generic which made it easy to get but the women didn't hesitate when she answered. And I got the question alittle wrong but got the same gist that Manda wrote. I just catch it before I had to go pick my son up from a friend's after school. Hopefully someone will remember the other three answer's.

You know what; I think I saw that episode. It rings a bell. I must have accidentally blew it off.
