My first instinct was indeed “Emergency!”, but when I noticed it said “air ambulance”, I quickly changed to… “Baywatch”?!?!
One of those FJ ones where if I had a couple of minutes, I’d have gotten around to it… but why Baywatch? 😉
My first instinct was “Airwolf”, but then when I went to “shows Jeopardy would realistically ask about” about five seconds later, I went to M*A*S*H.
I said Mash in an instant and also said “the helicopter guy will get this and bet a bundle.”
