- <p> "A failed contestant on Jeopardy" doesn't look like much on
- a resume. Still, it got Michael Reilly, 26, one job. An actor
- making a living as a waiter, Reilly was so affable that he was
- asked to be a player on trial run-throughs of a new ABC game
- show, Monopoly. Though he was "blissfully ignorant about how
- things were done," he dared producer Merv Griffin to let him
- take a turn as host, and won the post permanently. If the
- program's not a success, however, Reilly could land back on
- Restaurant Row. Go directly to Salad Bar.
