Hockey guy is pretty cool and I think he would do a good job. Worst case they create a Trebek robot and plug him on to charge between tapings.

The only suitable replacement for Alex Trebek is some form of malevolent, malfunctioning AI

https://twitter.com/KenJennings/status/1024033621143838720?s=19 I'd be down with Ken hosting. Mostly because I like the idea of "I did so well on a game show... They made me the host!" Realistically they'll go with someone with some announcing or acting experience (but is obscure enough to host it till they retire.)

I think Coates would be cool. I think she carries the right amount of authority that a Jeopardy host needs while still being affable.

I feel like Ken Jennings has the right resume to subtly throw shade at contestants when they're being idiots like Alex does though.

His Twitter history basically excludes him from contention. He should host a competing network TV game show, though.

Sadly, it's true that Jennings' past tweets probably would cause enough outcry to disqualify him. Game show hosts are supposed to be as whitebread as possible, doubly so for Jeopardy. And I'm not sure if they would want a host that's better at the game than practically every contestant that would play.

Matt Lauer was floated as a replacement years ago but I'm pretty sure that's out the window!

They should put John Hodgman in. Anyway, of course the answer was Lesotho.

Ken Jennings is funny, witty, charismatic and smart. He’d be a perfect host, but they won’t pick someone so partisan My favourite Ken Jennings tweet https://twitter.com/kenjennings/status/612092418561675264?s=21

LeVar Burton is one of the only choices I'd be almost totally okay with. He's very likeable and right around the same level of cool/nerdy. I wonder if he's still directing stuff though. Judging by imdb it looks like his plate isn't super full...

Jeopardy should end when Alex Trebek dies, and his funeral should have the entire set and all of the staff working at the time burned along with him on a cruise ship like the world's nerdiest, most  viking funeral pyre.

Give him the Jeremy Bentham treatment and leave him on-set forever looking over the shoulder of the new host.

DoctorWhat posted:"Oh I get it now!" I remember that from the first time it was shown, and yeah that was great. Austin is amazing. In other news, Jeopardy maybe let me get a job! The interviewer at the job that Civil Service qualified me for was a big Jeopardy fan, and half the interview was spent talking about my experience on the show, once we got all the job requirements and expectations out of the way. I guess I'll find out in a month.
