| Pop Culture Jeopardy! |
We shall never surrender! Here's what's on television for tonight, Wednesday, December 4!
Our Top Pick tonight is the series premiere of Pop Culture Jeopardy! (Amazon Prime Video, midnight). This latest brand extension of the quintessential trivia game show completes Amazon Prime Video's Winning Wednesday programming "block," which 3 other game shows with new episodes on Wednesdays. Hosted by SNL's very punchable Colin Jost, Pop Culture Jeopardy! covers pop culture from all eras and has teams rather than individuals playing. My interest doesn't rise that high because of the teams.
Elsewhere, Abbott Elementary gets in the holiday spirit, the New York Philharmonic welcomes a woman, Bravo sells SLC real estate, Rockefeller has a tree lighting, Winston Churchill gets docuseries treatment, Shrinking gets advice, contestants reach The Summit, and The Ultimatum returns.
