Mainly of note, other than Pat Sajak winning for his last year of regular "Wheel," is the songwriting team of Pasek and Paul becoming members of the EGOT club with their patter song "Which of the Pickwick Triplets Did It?" from the show-within-a-show in the third season of "Only Murders in the Building." They got to this point with two Grammys, two Tonys and one Oscar ("City of Stars" from "La La Land"). Their collaborators on the song, Marc Shaiman and Scott Willman, are one Oscar away from an EGOT (they already have Emmys).

I'm not a fan of Pasek & Paul's work, but "Pickwick Triplets" is a fantastic song, both on its own and as a parody of a patter song - although I'm going to go out on a limb and say that aspect of it is more on co-writer Marc Sharman than on P&P.  Also, where P&P are concerned, they absolutely deserved the Oscar for "LaLaLand", but should have won for "Audition", not "City of Stars".

Counterpoint: Pasek and Paul were lucky to have not been driven out of show business after "La La Land." Chazelle is more to blame. But that score? Oof. Possibly the worst since "Popeye."
