More video: Ice in Us (That's "Cuisine" Anagramized)

I was wondering why I hadn't put this on YouTube, so I made it happen. How 'bout that?!?

ID each culinary dish, whose name is anagramized, and accompanied by images of three key ingredients. Tasty!

Video: A Court of Kings

Hey! The fun, only-tangentially—MLK Day—related video round from last Monday's quiz: Here it is: Name the person/group/object that has the word king (or those letters in that order) in its name (or nickname). Experience enjoyment.

Rebus in Peace 2009

And here you go, last Monday's video round, "Rebus in Peace 2009." E-mail info@bigquizthing.com for answers.

Video: Trivial Palindromes Semordnilap Laivirt

Fun, fun—from last week's quiz, the video round, "Trivial Palindromes Semordnilap Laivirt." A longtime trivial dream I made come true.

Nice expressionistic collage, isn't it? But puzzle out the constituent pieces and you'll discover they have something in common:

Yes, indeed: They're all cable networks. Each one of these will feature five elements that have one thing in common. This Monday night; be present.

As for the audio round, we're doing "And They're Off!" Your first task is to guess what the theme is. Plus, more theater tickets.

UPDATE: Yeah, this example is pretty tough, though I assure you, it's harder than what we're actually using. But EDP and I have been discussing (Mrs. EDP was completely stumped by it), and we'll be tweaking the challengingness a little. Everything's cool; trust your quizmaster.
