The issue is whether people watch to see the show or whether they watch to see Vanna and Sajak.

I would think many people could do that job almost as well if not better for far less money.

There are certain jobs such as professional athletes where they can’t be readily replaced by other people. Actors are more fungible than other professions.

Jeopardy seems to be doing quite well even though Trebek is no longer the host.

I watch the Super Bowl because I want to see the game. I don’t care who the announcers are.

Has any ever watched a sporting event to listen to the announcers?

Do people think the ratings will fall after Seacrest takes over?
