BTW, I think Ken is doing great
Ken is very good. If they want to go with the rest of that line up it will probably kill the show.

I think Ken Jennings is doing a fabulous job. His wardrobe has improved and his personalty has blossomed. I look forward to ABC announcing he has become the permanent host.

We will alway miss Alex Trebeck.

Default Give him the gig

I think he’s doing a fine job- can’t imagine some of these celebrities being the host. When they have Celebrity Jeopardy I can’t believe how uneducated some of them are.

Ken gets better every day and has a good rapport with the contestants. I wonder why they didn't include Brad Rutter. I would rather see him instead of some of the other guests they have lined up.

Ken is doing a great job and should be offered as the permanent host. He moves the game at a quality pace without having to cut any game short of conclusion, which is something I couldn't understand from Alex. Perhaps he's given more program time than Alex.

Agree with you.. I remember thinking how smart Maria Bartiroma was before she appeared on the show several years ago.

I am not a fan of his voice as an announcer and commentator. Should have a deeper voice for hosting. IMHO.

I thought the same thing at first, but got use to it.

“Jeopardy!” is about to welcome a new guest host.

Mike Richards, the show’s executive producer, will take over hosting duties next week from Ken Jennings, who stepped in following Alex Trebek’s death last year.

Richards, who will host from Feb. 22 until March 5, is the next in a series of planned interim hosts who will take a turn at the lectern this season. Other upcoming guest hosts include former TODAY co-host Katie Couric, Anderson Cooper, actor Mayim Bialik and TODAY’s own Savannah Guthrie.


Sorry - there is NO WAY we would watch Jeopardy with THESE 'guest hosts'. All these years I don't believe that Alex was 'political' or such. The four above are VERY political. period. Bring back Ken please.

To relate to the "other side" - imagine if Sean Hannity or Glenn Beck etc 'guest host'...

Ken Jennings is no Alex Trebek but he is doing well so far. But I have no problems with any of these guest hosts.

This is a brilliant woman-- Mayim Bialik - Wikipedia who could give Ken Jennings real competition as a final selection for a host.

They will find the right person in time.

I fully agree. If they get some 'star', they could also be losing a lot of their viewership
