Last week saw the culmination of the coveted Professors Tournament on Jeopardy!.

The finale sent tournament winner Sam Buttrey home with the $100,000 in prize money.

But many people focused on something other than his skills and knowledge.

Sam Buttrey bears a STRIKING resemblance to comedian Steve Martin.

Take a look for yourself:

Even Martin himself thinks so.

He cheekily suggested Buttrey and he should split the prize money.




Jeopardy! was thrilled at the thought of having Steve Martin on.

They retweeted him to invite him to come on the show "anytime, in any capacity!"

Jeopardy! has been in a hosting limbo since beloved host Alex Trebek died in the fall of 2020, leaving the position vacant.

Since then, the show has relied upon two rotating semi-permanent hosts—Mayim Bialik and Ken Jennings, after former show producer Mike Richards was hired and then resigned from the post shortly thereafter.




Jeopardy! has also had celebrity tournaments in the past, of which Martin could ostensibly be a part of in the new year.

The celebrity tournaments spawned a popular spoof sketch on Saturday Night Live where Will Ferrel played Alex Trebek, often alongside a malicious Burt Reynolds or Sean Connery.





It is unknown if anything came of Jeopardy! 's offer to Steve Martin, but we'll be keeping a close eye out for further developments.

TikToker Explains Why Walmart Is A 'Rental Company' Due To Their Lax Return Policy—And He's Got A Point

Let's be honest: the average consumer has reached the point of having to choose between basic necessities, sometimes having to skip out on groceries because they needed gas to get to work or a new bottle of shampoo.

In an economy like this, it's hard to imagine any "fun" spending, like buying a new book, trying out new skincare, or dare we say, paying for an experience, like seeing The Nutcracker ballet at over the holidays or buying Christmas presents.

James Van Der Beek Addresses Concern Over His Gaunt Appearance Amid Cancer Battle

Erika Kirk Has Ultimate Freudian Slip While Honoring Student With 'Charlie Kirk Courage Award'

Erika Kirk was mocked online after she had an epic Freudian slip while honoring Utah Valley University student Caleb Chilcutt with the Charlie Kirk Courage Award at Turning Point USA's AmericaFest over the weekend and misspoke while comparing Chilcutt to her late husband, far-right activist Charlie Kirk.

The late Kirk, who was assassinated at UVU in September, was a virulent white supremacist who aligned with the Christian right and advocated for Christian nationalism, promoting a nativist, fundamentalist Christian view of society. All the while, he openly attacked LGBTQ+ rights, backed the white genocide conspiracy theory, and was a major figure in the MAGA movement.

Instead, tech billionaire Elon Musk has recently drawn criticism after posting remarks about actress Sydney Sweeney’s appearance following the Los Angeles premiere of The Housemaid. The controversy centers on Musk’s comments about Sweeney’s dress, comments that were seen by many online as focusing on her physical attributes rather than her work.

To say that the rise of artificial intelligence, or AI for short, is a contentious issue would be a gross understatement.

In addition to the growing concern that AI will create job scarcity in almost every profession, recent studies have shown AI continues to leave a devastating carbon footprint. Its water usage alone surpassed the entirety of bottled water worldwide.
