      Yes, beejls. And did you notice, only 3 min commercial breaks? Plus, no bombardment of day-glow or zooming lights enveloping the set, interjecting bars of synthetic “music” with every pause or camera shift and almost no shouting (barring Lynn Redgrave not being respectfully allowed to know completion of the question is required before signaling).

    Man, I used to have such a thing for Duchovny, and I grew up reading Stephen King. I watched this episode live when it came out. I used to watch every day with my mother when that was still an option. Seeing this again, with the commercials intact was a surreal and delightful experience. Specifically, the Newsradio spot with the briefest clip of Phil Hartman. I was just a kid then, I wasn't prepared for the losses to come, and this brings me a lot of feelings of the quietness of my youth that I treasured. Anyway, what are frogs?

      I'm really glad this brought back some happy memories for you! It's funny because there have been a few people that left comments complaining about the commercials being left in, but they clearly don't understand the purpose of my channel. It's the full experience of commercials along with old TV that dredges up those memories that can take you back to those happy times in your past.

    It's interesting that a little over a year, in November of 1996 (the 11th), during JEOPARDY!'s 13th year on the air, they'd transition from the Grid set of the show, to the Sushi Bar set, with another set of celebrities.
    I've always liked the Sushi Bar set, myself, but I was born just in the last few months of the Grid set, in which I can still remember seeing just a little bit of blue, surrounding the contestants and Alex, too.
    A few of my favorite JEOPARDY! memories, for sure. Thank you, Alex.
