Fourteen sketches aired between December 7, 1996 and May 16, 2009: two sketches per season from 1996 to 2002, when Will Ferrell was a regular on the show; and one each in May 14, 2005 and May 16, 2009, when Ferrell returned to the show as host. All fourteen sketches took place on reproductions of the 1996-2002 Jeopardy! set, even though the sets changed on real Jeopardy! Ferrell appeared in all fourteen sketches, portraying host Alex Trebek. Darrell Hammond also appeared in each sketch, twelve times portraying Sean Connery, in an impersonation that "often questions Trebek's sexuality and sometimes implies that he has known Trebek's mother in a carnal sense." Norm Macdonald appeared in five sketches, all as Burt Reynolds. Jimmy Fallon appeared six times, each time portraying a different impression.
