This is not reflective of my experience. Jeopardy has been popular and a part of the public discourse my entire life. It has the same cultural attaché as Wheel of Fortune or any of that, the idea that it’s only recently become popular is totally not how I’ve experienced that show.

The host of Jeopardy is probably a more visible position than the host of the CBS/ABC/NBC nightly news at this point.

It's not that its popularity has changed it's that people who don't watch it only hear about it when this host debacle happens or someone makes a run at Ken Jennings's record (or his original run). Jeopardy! nerds talk amongst themselves (what is there to talk about other than a gimme Final being a triple stumper anyway) so if you don't watch the show it looks like everyone is suddenly acting like they watch it.

Bust Rodd posted:It was never about “the host of jeopardy” it was “drat Alex Trebek fuckin rules, I fuckin’ love Alex Trebek”. He was the office itself, the show held no prestige because no one in America will ever respect a nerd. It reminds me of when Jon Stewart retired from TDS. There’s no one on Earth who can fill those shoes because it wasn’t about the shoes, so to speak, but the feet themselves we all loved. The Daily Show under the new guy got far higher ratings than it ever did under John Stewart

A small town bar I worked at in college used to have Jeopardy on the TV regularly. This was over a decade ago.

Breadallelogram posted:I love Drew but I've never watched his Price is Right episodes In an interview with some other comedians, I think Dave Attel maybe?, he talks about how its basically the perfect job to suit his lifestyle. he only has to work about 6 weeks out of the year and then rest of the time he just has a gigantic pile of money and can do whatever the gently caress he wants. His friend's like to play games whenever they catch an episode to see if it's "Fresh as a daisy Drew" in week 1 or 2 or if it's "Dead Eyed and Soul-crushed Drew with madness leaking out of his ears" from week 6 of 12 hour days shooting like 10 episodes a day. I like to play this game with Steve Harvey because he's on the same schedule, but I heard his shoot is for 8 weeks and not 6.

Didn't Matt predict that symbolically impeaching the president will become the norm whenever one party doesn't control the presidency and the House?

Is there anyone out there who wouldn't find it suitable to make tens of million dollars for working an extremely cushy job for 6 weeks out of the year?

# ? Aug 26, 2021 22:50 |

Well that’s the point, it’s only a cushy job because you work 6 weeks out of the year, but those 6 weeks are 12-16 hours a day, 6 days a week.

Would absolutely do that for what he's paid. And I'm pretty sure he already had enough money to live extremely comfortably for life before he took the job.

I would do that for what I'M paid. And then work another job the rest of the year. It's called the hustle mindset. A lot of people buy seedless watermelons, I buy the ones WITH seeds and then plant my own watermelons. It's called the hustle mindset.

Which I feel is a solid argument given how many dogshit late night comedians/talk show hosts were kept a float during the last few years entire cause of this.

Was talking with my dad about the hosting fiasco and he brought up this up and he wondered why these people even agree to go on. It's a lose-lose - either you do well which is expected since you're the authoritative anchor on a major network or you eat poo poo like Wolf did and show that you're all just pampered morons.
