Four New Jeopardy Guest Hosts Announced

[Me.]

"In the hours since Jeopardy! has released its next list of guest hosts, the show is being roundly criticized on all forms of social media for announcing Dr. Oz. as one of its four additional guest hosts today. Anderson Cooper, Savannah Guthrie, and Dr. Sanjay Gupta have also been announced"

1. I feel the same way. Dr.Oz. NOOOO!

[underpants]

2. Remember this is about 50 days of work (in studio) a year

5 shows a day for 10 days. 5 runs of 10 days and that’s 250 shows. Covers most of the weekdays in a year.

3. I think Ken Jennings is doing a great job.

Not much charisma, but some humor.

5. We finally agree on something, El.. 🙂

He’s tried to do what exactly what he said he would. That is, not to be the focus of the show.

4. Oz is disgusting. i don't kow what the hell the Jeopardy producers are thinking

[Leith]

6. What?

I was hoping for LeVar Burton.

[Progressive Jones]

8. Absolutely nt

[Bucky]

10. I think everybody was. He'd be perfect. I doubt they can afford him

Celebrities come with price tags.

[Progressive Jones]

7. Jeez, why not Dr. Phil, or Cardi B ? nt

[Oneironaut]

9. Ahhh Nooooo!!!

Please just keep Ken Jennings. Why do I get the feeling they’re going to have people like Michael Strahan, and Snoop Dog next?

Some of these might be a hard pass, especially if they go on for as long as Ken Jennings has.

11. Anderson! Awesome!

12. Ugh. I haven't been watching

Now I'm glad of that decision.

13. I don't think most of the guests are auditioning,at least.

I think this is just so we can have a time of mourning and not feel like Trebek is being replaced asap.

Saying this, with the announcement of Aaron Rodgers and Shailene Woodley's engagement I do think he's using this to feel out his future after football. I can see him using this as a decision of whether to go into the talk show/game show/morning show host.
