Crankshaft by Tom Batiuk and Dan Davis for May 14, 2023

Solidarity, shmolidarity—This is the real reason Bialik walked off the show.

Aww Crank, answer like Hammie would, Humphrey Boogert.

I guess this cartoon says that Ed was in a dream when he was on “Jeopardy”. As shown in the last panel, It seems to show him and his buddies sitting in the usual booth they sit in at the Cafe.

love Mayim

I HATE Mayim Bialik! All I can say is, she must have a great agent. I liked her in Big Bang, but I can’t stand her new show and I don’t watch Jeopardy when she’s the host.

“Don’t Bogart that joint, my friend/pass it over to me.”

The show ain’t what it used to be.

Nice representation of the Jeopardy set, and, of Mayim Bialik. One question, Since Ken Jennings has done most of the hosting of “daytime Jeopardy,” this year, why didn’t they use him?

I’m just curious about the decision to combine one of the current hosts with a very detailed rendition of the set from about 2006.

Good answer Crankshaft…….

“The male lead” of course it’s Bogart. Who else would it be?

He just wasn’t fast enough.

Um.

This is why God created Smartphones & Google

?????? OK, no idea what’s supposed to be going on here or how it is in any way funny.

Sometimes whatever you are trying to say gets stuck and takes awhile to float to the top.

How about “Here’s looking at you…and going, ‘Huh?’”

Or “When Fogey Met Bogey”?

Or “Of all the running non-jokes in all the comic strips in all the world, Mayim Bialik walks into mine!”?

Or “Don’t play it again, Batiuk!”?

“It’s both a motor vehicle part and the name of a nationally syndicated comic that purports to be a humor strip but has regularly failed to provide anything resembling same since its debut in 1987.”

Please remember to phrase your response in the form of a question.

I lost on Jeopardy, baby

Ooooooh, ooh ooh ooh

I’m not a fan of Mayim Bialik… but even she doesn’t deserve to be in Crankshaft.

Haha! XD

And then Sheldon Cooper rambles about quantum physics
