The taping itself was so much more fun that I imagined. It occurred to me that the guest host for my segment could be Ken Jennings, who is someone I’ve adored for so many years. It turned out he was, and spending a little bit of time with him and the Clue Crew personally was a dream come true.
One thing that was amazingly cool to see was how scrupulous the show is about the ethics and confidentiality of the game. There’s always a lawyer on set … and I’m hoping that’ll be my next job!
