Trebek didn't seem to be amused by ‘Final Jeopardy!' answer referencing classic SNL character

A Jeopardy! contestant named Talia won the hearts of Saturday Night Live fans everywhere during Wednesday night's show.

The contestants were given this answer during Final Jeopardy:

This song from a 1999 animated film about censorship had a word censored from its Oscar performance.

Talia either had no clue, or she plotted out her whole appearance on the game show just so she could respond with this question.

She wrote: "What is The Love Ballad of Turd Ferguson?"

Host Alex Trebek was clearly not amused. He read it aloud and just said, “Nope. Sorry.”

Turd Ferguson is, of course, a reference to Norm Macdonald's Burt Reynolds impression on Saturday Night Live's old Celebrity Jeopardy! sketches.

It was a favorite that MacDonald brought back for SNL's 40th anniversary special earlier this year.

There is no actual Love Ballad of Turd Ferguson, at least not yet.

In case you were wondering, the correct song is Blame Canada, from South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut.

Jeopardy! airs weeknightst at 7 p.m. on Channel 11.
