Has anybody stopped watching Jeopardy since they started using guest hosts? Currently Katie (Colonic) Couric is hosting.
I will never watch if that arrogant SOB Jennings is host.
Yup, deliberately turned it off with this hostess
Still watching, but Couric is absolutely terrible. 100 percent insincere and not smart enough. Ken Jennings was OK but not really personable. The fellow who is a producer on the show is the best so far—could get used to him.
At least they jettisoned that champion dickhead.
It’s getting too woke for my blood.
Cour-Ick is getting a little pompous and knowitallish.
Ken Jennings pretty much sucked. Michael Richard’s would be great.
Personally, I like Wink Martindale! Or Art Linkletter.
I would like Michael Richards from Seinfeld.
Everyone needs to go to jeapardy.com, at the bottom it says
contact us. Tell them what you think of having Katie Couric. I did some weeks ago, I don’t watch but my mother does and she was upset Katie Couric was going to be one of the hosts.
Make sure you say turning off because of Katie Couric this week.
Fascinating that so many think Jennings was the best. I thought he was insufferable - like the kid in class that knew he was always right and smarter than everybody. The producer was good, not a fan of Couric. Nobody so far has the “Trebek”
vibe.
“When Perky Turns Saggy”
“When Perky Turns Saggy”
She’s insufferable.
Couric has the habit of saying ‘eight hundred AND one dollars” when it should be “eight hundred one dollars”. Alex would not approve.
No modern game show is watchable. Not one.
I watch “The Price is Right” reruns from the ‘50’s with Bill Cullen.
In 1958, they gave away two (TWO!) Lincoln Continentals; price for both was about $12,000.
Ahhh... the good ol’ days.
stropped watching when they took ken jennings off. will not watch any other host.
I came to that same conclusion. Katie is still a little unsure of herself and works too hard to get in the comments before moving on. Ken had a little problem with this but settled very quickly into a great host.
“ Replacing Alex is like replacing Rush”
Alex was not political
He is not replaceable but they can either put the producer in there who does a great job and is non poltitical Thereby preserving the game show or they can throw it away on some stupid leftist idea l
The way cnn Fox Grammys bleed viewers.
My fav so far has been the executive producer guy.
Couric just doesn’t have the right feel. Too “cute” and lack of intellectual breadth.
And I agree with a previous poster - replacing Alex is like replacing Rush. It’s a huge pair of shoes to fill.
