This is a response to an old post from Dave. Exactly 5 months ago.
Subject: Rip Alex Trebek Sunday Nov 8, 2020 From Davers > So sad to read about the death of Alex Trebek. I am going > to miss Jeopardy. I don't know if it's possible for them > to find another host as good as he was. He will be missed. So Dave....have you been watching it since? I do. So far, we're on our 4th guest host. - Ken Jennings for a few weeks - Katie Curic for 2 weeks - Dr. Oz (Dr. Odd) for 2 weeks - currently Arron Rogers for this week and next - More to come after next week I guess they're auditioning interested people to take over the show. So far, I liked Ken Jennings the best. In my area, it's aired M-F with the guest hosts then every Saturday, they show an old episode hosted by Alex. |

So > far, I liked Ken Jennings the best. Ken did a pretty good job but he is a wienie. I preferred Katie Couric, but the best was Michael Richards. > In my area, it's aired M-F with the guest hosts then every Saturday, > they show an old episode hosted by Alex. Same here. It's interesting that so many people associate the show with Alex Trebek. I started watching the show in the 70s with Art Fleming. It took me a while to get used to Trebek. |

That is because some people are idiots and prone to judging people on irrelevant stuff. I don't watch day time TV or the types of shows he has been known to express some strange views on various issues. That is what people are judging him on, not his performance on the show. I watched the games he hosted and he was pretty good. You don't have to get your knickers in a twist over him getting the full time gig. They aren't likely to risk a drop in ratings on that show over preconceived dislikes. It will be someone more appealing. > Alex Trebek - Dr Oz - - what the hell were they thinking!!! He left big shoes to fill. Personally, I think Mike Richards has been by far the best. I don't know if he is really interested in taking on that role. |

Or are you just upset that he has made comments about pseudo science. I had never seen or heard of Dr. Oz before his stint as guest host so I had no preconcieved ideas about his performance, Having seen all the guest hosts, I would rank him second behind Mike Richards, ahead of Katie Couric and Ken Jennings, and way ahead of Aaron Rodgers. |
