In case you can't read it, it said: On "The Simpsons," which of these pairs of characters is typically voiced by the same person?"

A. Apu and Mr. Burns B. Moe & Krusty the Clown C. Ned Flanders & Principal Skinner D. Kent Brockman & Mayor Quimby

As a Simpsons fan, I had no idea on this one. Even the contestant/player (computer programmer) too.

"The great companies did not know that the line between hunger and anger is a thin line. And money that might have gone to wages went for gas, for guns, for agents and spies, for blacklists, for drilling. On the highways the people moved like ants and searched for work, for food. And

Ugh, they're using the same new rules for the Regis 10th anniversary shows (time limits, etc)?

Anyway, what was the dollar amount of the question? From the screen shot (35 seconds left) I have to assume it's in the last 5 questions, and if the dollar amounts are the same as the new format, it's for 50000 or more. (Anything at that level seems fair game.)

Lugnut: Aaron is being obtuse. A: Hank and Harry, B: Hank and Dan, C: Harry and Harry, D: Harry and Dan.

Does anyone else think this would have been only a medium-difficulty question on "Beat the Geeks"?
