Comedian Tim Hawkins hilariously used “Jeopardy” and “Wheel of Fortune” to help illustrate and draw comparisons between the two very distinct types of people he believes exist in the world.
Game shows are among the most popular kinds of television programming. Most people are good, honest individuals who enjoy seeing others succeed. Whether through skill or sheer luck, seeing someone else catch a lucky break in life will make most people smile.
Who doesn’t want to see good things happen to their neighbor?
Well, that’s likely a big reason why game shows are so incredibly popular. Of course, some of the best and most highly rated game shows are the long-running “Jeopardy” and “Wheel of Fortune.” “The Right is Right” is also a favorite, but everyone has to admit that it hasn’t been the same since Bob Barker left the program.
In a clip posted on social media, Tim stated that there are two kinds of people in this world. He claims there are individuals who either enjoy “Wheel of Fortune” or those who prefer “Jeopardy.”
“There’s two types of people in the world,” Tim says. “You’ve got your ‘Jeopardy’ people and your ‘Wheel of Fortune’ people. I am ‘Wheel of Fortune.’”
After declaring his love of “Wheel of Fortune,” he performs hilarious impersonations of contestants commonly found on those beloved programs.
“Yes, Alex, I’ll take Ramifications of The Peloponnesian Wars for $800,” Tim says. “Turn to ‘Wheel of Fortune,’ ‘I want a ‘L.’ Can I have a ‘L?’ It’s like a seven if you did that to it.’
The audience bursts into laughter at Tim’s hilarious comparisons between those shows’ two different kinds of contestants.
As the “Wheel of Fortune” character, Tim realizes that he needs to buy a vowel to continue solving the puzzle. The character’s letter of choice is an “L.”
So, is Tim right? Are you a “Jeopardy” or a “Wheel of Fortune” person?
