* Occasionally done for laughs on ''[[Jeopardy!]]'' when someone hits a Daily Double. Instead of saying the typical "I'd like to make this a true Daily Double", one contestant said, "[[Wheel of Fortune|I'd like to solve the puzzle.]]" The requirements for answers being a question have also been abused for jokes, such as "What be ebonics?"▼
