U.S. Senator Al Franken Makes an Appearance on Jeopardy

He's no stranger to TV, of course, having been a writer and cast member on Saturday Night Live, but Minnesota's own Sen. Al Franken is once again on the air, this time appearing on the game show, Jeopardy.

Franken is taking part in shows airing this week on the syndicated game show, appearing as a part of Jeopardy's 'Power Players Week.'  Franken is playing for the USO, and any money he wins will be donated to the non-profit. (He could win as much as $50,000; the non-winners still get a $10,000 donation.)

Franken is up against Republican commentator Ann Navarro (playing for Smile Nicaragua), and ABC News legal correspondent Sunny Hostin (who’s representing the Bronx Children’s Museum).

And, even though he's a respected U.S. Senator, he's still pretty funny-- especially when it comes to phrasing his answers in the form of a question. Check out the promo for his appearance...

They're #2016PowerPlayers, but @AlFranken, @Sunny Hostin, & @AnaNavarro still have to answer in form of a question! https://t.co/ae3XX7Og3d
