If you were hoping for an army from the North storming the set and beheading Jeopardy! host Alex Trebek, then we apologize, but that’s not the kind of invasion we were talking about.
On Tuesday night’s episode of the popular long running quiz show, the first round of questions was populated by categories and questions inspired by the hit HBO television show Game of Thrones. Here’s a look at the categories, containing phrases that fans of the show will instantly recognize.
The first four categories contained regular (read: boring), non-Game of Thrones related questions. But the fifth category was all things Westeros, and finally made us feel smart when watching Jeopardy! Unsurprisingly, the contestants absolutely plowed that category with ease. It is the most popular show on television, after all.
