Jennings is an anti-Trump Leftist crank. Balik is no better.
I wouldn’t envy anyone who tries to follow Alex. He was the face of the show and anyone else will be measured by that yardstick.
As a regular Jeopardy watcher, I’m fine with either Mayim Bialik or Ken Jennings.... or the two of them sharing it.
T R U M P
make jeopardy hugely greater than evah!
Heh. I was at a relative’s a few weeks ago and he’s a game show nut. We watched jeopardy. For me it was the first time in 25 years. I wondered where Alex was. Meanwhile, they were rooting for this guy that was winning like crazy, week after week. Oddly, I didn’t find it the least bit entertaining seeing an “ultimate nerd” prove he had perfect recall of an infinite number of useless facts. It’s like watching the Rain Man count toothpicks.
However, I think the quality of the questions have continued their steady decline.
More about celebrity crap (who won this academy award in 2018 or this music award in 2020) and less about hard science, math or history. I understand they think that they have to attract a younger and more shallow thinking audience, but most of those would rather watch Oprah or Naked and Afraid anyway.
Bialik leaves me cold. Jennings has lightened up and is much improved. If it’s between those two then my choice is Ken, but I thought Buzzy did an even better job than the other two.
Jennings is fine He should have been quiet about Trump, but…
Problem is he let the guy yesterday have two guesses on the answer. He says no that’s the wrong answer and stares at him. Then the guy takes another guess and its right.
Alex did not do that
And its favoritism otherwise everyone gets two guesses.
I didn’t know they were doing new Master Minds. Jeopardy could do worse than Brook, but I personally liked “Blossom”. She does a better job than Ken.
I like Ken Jennings as host. There is nothing controversial about him (on the show) at all. I also really like Mayim Bialik.
Ken Jenningshas a lisp that drives me crazy. He needs to spend some time with a speech therapist.
They will pick a gay black woman.....................
Sad to hear that about Bailk, I liked her as a guest host.
You mean you didn’t know he had passed away?
I watch a few game shows on the game show channel and the Price is right on CBS if I think about it.
My wife watches rerun game shows and tries to guess answers. Ugh.
Once in a while I will watch a 70’s “Let’s Make a Deal” to see the prizes. It can be funny to see someone get excited about winning a Vega, a piano, avocado appliances, or a fur coat. Makes you realize possessions are not really worth much.
Ken Jennings was actually my favorite he did a great job!!
After watching the replacements struggle, I am leaning towards Mayim Bialuk.
She is neutral, even-toned and always polite, never talking down to the contestants.
Jennings is awkward, smug and often condescending.
But IMO Alex Trebek was so outstanding that I cannot imagine *anyone* else even coming close to filling his shoes. Therefore it's unlikely that I'll be tuning in in the future.
