elfman I don't like looking at Mr. Jennings. There. I said it.

Didn’t Ken Jennings do that same damn thing? I thought he even made snarky comments towards Alex Trebek.

No three wasy split? Ok.....What is this BS for $200.

Oh wtf really? So we're gonna white this out. 2 perfectly wonderfully intelligent black people who are more than qualified and charismatic to 2 white boring people that no one asked for.

So why is this disgrace of the spirit of Alex Trebek hosting Jeopardy this week!? Can’t waste those 5 days of$$$$$.

never liked Ken Jennings probably because I thought he was a cheater

Oh sweet baby Jesus. Who's the biggee megalomaniac?

How do you feel about having to watch the second and third string the rest of the year?

The actress and host of Jeopardy!’s primetime specials and spinoffs, will share hosting duties with for… As a country we have spent entirely too much time talking about who is hosting Jeopardy... Looks like Jeopardy will be selecting Ken Jennings for the hosting job. He literally has a 4 month trial run and he'll do well. I'm just disgusted how Sony allowed Richards to ruin the first guest hosts process, it was so disrespectful to the candidates who really wanted the job.
