I like the Jennings kid on Jeopardy

[Mysterian]

I think it was a good decision to make him the host. He seems honestly friendly and he doesn't annoy me like some TV personalities do.

1. He's okay

My main beef is that he talks about his own winning streak and winning streaks in general too much, rather than treating each game as a standalone contest. Alex Trebek handled that much better.

2. I'm not a serial watcher but I haven't seen that yet

That would be annoying.

7. He rarely does that.

[LisaM]

9. Every time a contestant has or starts approaching a streak, he does it.

It just sticks in my craw. To be fair, it doesn't bother everyone. But it really bugs me.

3. kid?? he is closing in on 50 years of age (in 18 months)

[Mysterian]

5. Seems a lot younger

but anyone under 50 is a kid to me.

4. We like him a lot, he's getting more comfortable with each game.

6. Only recently have I regained certain TV channels

and I didn't see any of Jennings' early appearances as host. So, I missed whatever growing pains he might have had. It's tough to fill Trebek's shoes, but Jennings has a good disposition and I like him too.

8. The other one was too much. She did too much twerking with her upper body.

And it did not look like she knew the answers.

[LisaM]

10. Her acting as if she doesn't know the answers is a problem for me, too.

(Mayim Biyalik). And her chortling, and delayed confirmation of the response.

She doesn't seem to be improving much, except for the chortling.

11. Exactly! I tried watching the celebrity Jeopardy a few times.

Did not make it thru either of the two episodes I tried watching.

I predict she will be replaced or it will fail completely.
