In this week's episode of Jeopardy!, viewers were in for a surprise as a familiar face took the stage. It was none other than Brett Kelly, the former child star who gained fame for his role as Thurman Merman in the 2003 hit movie, Bad Santa. Alongside stars like Billy Bob Thornton, Bernie Mac, and John Ritter, Brett's performance as the lovable and innocent Thurman stole the hearts of many.
And now, over 15 years later, Brett made a reappearance on our screens, this time on the popular game show, Jeopardy!. As he stood opposite the legendary Ken Jennings, viewers couldn't help but do a double take. It was a nostalgic moment for many to see how much the once young and adorable Brett had grown.
Although Brett's stint on the show didn't go as smoothly as he had hoped, with a few incorrect answers resulting in no winnings, fans were still ecstatic to see him and took to social media to express their excitement. From Reddit to Twitter, people couldn't believe that the "kid from Bad Santa" was now all grown up and competing on a game show.
Some viewers even joked that they had to do a reality check when they saw Brett on their screens. But despite not taking home any money, Brett's appearance on Jeopardy! was a reminder of his acting days and how much he has grown since his breakthrough role.
Since his days as Thurman, Brett has continued to act, with roles in various movies and TV shows such as Dead Like Me, What Goes Up, High School, and Supernatural. He currently has a recurring role in the Canadian legal drama, Family Law, where he plays Cecil Patterson.
It was a surreal experience for many to see the once adorable Thurman on a game show, and it was a reminder of just how much time has passed since the release of Bad Santa. But for Brett, it was just another chapter in his acting career, and he continues to work hard and pursue his passion.
