Talking Heads Reunite on ‘Jeopardy!’ to Present Category About Band’s Legacy
Talking Heads reunited on 'Jeopardy!' to present a category entirely devoted to the group’s legacy.
This week marks the official 40th anniversary of the theatrical release of Talking Heads ’ Stop Making Sense, and to celebrate, the band reunited on Jeopardy! David Byrne, Tina Weymouth, Chris Frantz, and Jerry Harrison first appeared on-screen together to reveal they would ask contestants “clues about the movie and our music.” One by one, band members then asked about the venue of their first show, when the then-trio opened for the Ramones (CBGB’s), the Stop Making Sense director who would later win an Oscar for Silence of the Lambs(Jonathan Demme), the first song the band recorded, about “the twisted thoughts of a homicidal narrator,” as Byrne said in the clue (“Psycho Killer”), and their biggest hit charts-wise (“Burning Down the House”).
