...NBC’s other game show: “Well, we don’t have briefcases,” he says. “And I’m willing to full-frontally touch somebody.” Upcoming episodes of the show will feature celebrity blogger Perez Hilton, Jeopardy champ Ken Jennings, and an as-yet-unnamed Harvard professor. Saget has also been gaining attention recently for his straight-to-DVD spoof, “Farce of the Penguins.” The film is narrated by Samuel L. Jackson and features the vocal talents...
