"Think!" is the title of the [[Think Music]] played on the game show ''[[Jeopardy!]]'' while contestants write their questions in its final round, "Final Jeopardy!", and was at one point universally recognizable. For readers who've never heard it [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vXGhvoekY44 here's one version].
Line 27:
* In the ''[[Beavis and Butthead]]'' episode "Closing Time", Beavis and Butthead imitate the theme in a "rock" style while the health inspector checks on Burger World.
* An issue of ''[[Mad Magazine|Mad]]'' in the late 1990s featured lyrics for the theme, in an article entitled "11 ways to piss off Alex Trebek":

Having trouble with this category<br />
Today's champion won't be me<br />
Don't know Greek mythology<br />
Hope my friends don't watch the show<br />
Then they'll say there's nothing that I know and<br />
I'll look like a total [[Heel]]<br />
Wish instead I'd gone... on... ''[[Wheel of Fortune|Wheel]]''! }}
* In the first ''[[Inspector Gadget]]'' movie (the live-action ones by Disney), when Gadget is being taught how to use his new abilities, one scenario is that he's supposed to stop a jewelry-store robbery by giving the robbers [[Incredibly Lame Pun|the slip]]. While he's thinking, a lightbulb rises from his hat and the first eight notes of "Think!" plays. When he gets an idea, the bulb lights up, and his next line: "Go, go, gadget oil slick."
