They’d give anything for Ken Jennings to be just A BIT more charismatic. I’d have liked Stephen Fry to do it, but I suspect he’s a little too long in the tooth to want to bother. I think “The Beast” from The Chase would make an excellent choice. In any event, sad day for television.
As Jeopardy is one of the few things not poisoned by politics, picking Jennings as a replacement would be a bad call. Jennings is a leftist with a history of nasty tweets.
So I fully expect Jennings or someone like him to get the job.
