It looks like Ralph Klein’s reputation may be at stake.

People are buzzing about the former premier’s appearance on an Alberta game show; and Calgary Herald columnist, Don Martin, believes his legacy could be in jeopardy because of it.

“On the Clock” has started airing on a Christian TV station in Alberta.

It features “King Ralph” on a red throne, where he rewards a pair of journalists and a local politician with fake “Ralph bucks” for their witty answers.

The station has only bought two episodes of “On the Clock” so far.
