Trebek said, “Our judges have re-evaluated one of your responses a few minutes ago, Nick. It seemed that the Jeopardy! judges gave a second thought to his previous answer. Moments later, however, Trebek interjected with some bad news for the contestant. The contestant, Nick, answered by clearly saying, “what is Gangster’s Paradise Lost?” Host Alex Trebek initially awarded him the money as he said what seemed to be the correct answer. The clue was referring to a book called Paradise Lost as well as Coolio’s hit song Gangsta’s Paradise. On the New Year’s Day episode, the clue in question read as follows: “A Song by Coolio from ‘Dangerous Minds’ goes back in time to become a 1667 John Milton Classic.” One contestant on Monday night’s episode found this out the hard way. When giving answers on the game show Jeopardy!, contestants need to be very careful and specific! Not only do answers need to be given in the form of a question but, as it turns out, pronunciation needs to be spot on.
