Fri Dec 06 00:50:00 UTC 2024: ## Pop Culture Jeopardy! Contestant’s Sharp Eye Earns Team 1200 Points

**NEW YORK, NY** – A contestant on the new Prime Video series *Pop Culture Jeopardy!* scored a major victory for his team, earning a 1200-point increase after a successful challenge. Rob, part of a three-person team, initially had his answer, “What is… My Idiot Brother,” to a clue about the film starring Paul Rudd ruled incorrect. Host Colin Jost initially accepted the answer “Our Idiot Brother” as correct.

However, Rob’s teammate, Jordan, a freelance Entertainment Weekly journalist, quickly pointed out during a commercial break that the film’s original title at the Sundance Film Festival was indeed “My Idiot Brother.” The judges overturned the initial ruling, awarding the team the substantial point boost.

Despite the significant points gain, the team ultimately fell short of victory in the episode. The incident highlights the rigorous judging process on the show, as hinted at by Jost during a recent appearance on the *Today* show. Jost, who admitted to struggling with trivia himself, explained that the show has judges who can overturn questionable rulings. He further revealed that he finds *Pop Culture Jeopardy!* more challenging than the original *Jeopardy!* format.

The first three episodes of *Pop Culture Jeopardy!* are currently streaming on Prime Video.
