Management by petition will solve the show’s problems, for sure!

Watch Jeapardy almost every night. Bialik is OK but as a dirty old guy I’d prefer the weather girl in Chicago. Better clothes and a nicer rack.

I haven't been following Jeopardy lately, not since Alex Trebek died. But I suspect for some of the male fans, Bialik is not the easiest on the eyes. Not fair, I guess. But like you said, they want eye candy. Obviously that's not the case with a male host.

Thank you for the summary. I appreciate it. Just surprised the host gig has turned into something of a sporting event!

We all get older. I thought she was a real nerd-girl cutie a couple decades ago.

Yeah. Pretty cutthroat out there though.

Am I the only one who’s noticed that The Left is intent on using unattractive women in as many roles as they can on TV and cinema (not to mention they’re all of ‘em Wokesters)?

Bialik is just a symptom of the disease.

Female beauty. Can't have that anymore. The horror!

My brilliant step-dad loved Jeopardy & Wheel of Fortune. I wonder what he would have thought of pretend woman Jennings?

Jennings is the male host (part-time). Are you thinking of the recent contestant that is a guy pretending to be a female? We never watched those episodes. And they had him on reruns lately so we had to turn the channel again.
