Ringer Spy Michael sends along word of ABC’s ‘Millionare’ and a LOTR Question…is that your final answer? [More]

This author’s work was the target of a parady entitled “Bored of the Rings”

The contestant did get the answer correct, after telling the audience that he had read both “Bored” and “Lord of the Rings”. Regis said that even he had read both and knew that the Harvard Lampoon wrote “Bored”!
