Ken Jennings had Jeopardy! Masters viewers in complete disbelief after he dropped the popular Gen-Alpha slang term 'skibidi' – leaving baffled parents calling on their youngsters for help.
The 49-year-old host, who has returned to front the second season of the high-stakes tournament, used the bizarre expression when reading a question from the 'internet slang' category during Wednesday's gameplay.
Addressing the players, Ken asked: 'Slang like "fanum tax" and "skibidi" baffle many; it's associated with this generation, a name that unfittingly follows Gen Z.'
Contestant Matt Amodio, 33, then buzzed in with the correct answer, 'What's Gen Alpha?'

Viewers were stunned that the term had even made it onto the show - with some youngsters even berating the program as they had to explain the term to older family members.
'Ken Jennings saying skibidi was not on my 2024 bingo card,' wrote on viewer on social media.
'Had to explain skibidi toilets and fanum tax to my mom, f*ck you Jeopardy,' commented another.
A third wrote: 'My grandma knows what skibidi is now because of Jeopardy.'
