My favorite Trebek cameo was his and Ventura’s double cameo on The X-files in one of the very best eps of the series “Jose Chung From Outer Space.” https://t.co/s0f2NibJIr

Oh, fuck, that is such a good episode. Definitely one of my top five favorite TV episodes of all time.
The actual title is “Jose Chung’s From Outer Space” because it’s referring to a fictional non-fiction book called From Outer Space. Anyway, the episode is just brilliant with its multiple unreliable narrators, manipulation of viewpoints and bizarre meta-humor.
It’s one of the few eps of any TV show I’ve watched more than three times. There’s just so much happening in it. It could’ve been three movies but was instead one 42-minute burst of pure inspired insanity.
