Maybe Laura Coates finally gets a shot, aces it, and we put all this 2021 ugliness behind us as quickly as possible. Of course every chud would tune out because she worked for the globalist Fauci News Network...

I was going to say “or Alan Rickman as Marvin the Paranoid Android” (the only good part of that horrible movie) but of course loving Rip. Rickman would potentially had been legit good as a 2 week guest host too. “I’m sorry, Mr Smith, but that is….incorrect….”

It’s not like we’re talking about a guy who’s problematic but as good as Harry Friedman here. He only started right before Alex made his announcement, right? The show’s definitely been on a bit of a downward slide since he’s taken over, especially with the quality of the clues going down a bit, but I guess we can blame that on Covid forcing remote work on top of the lockdowns and distancing on set and such, plus Alex’s death coinciding with the departure of other long time staffers at the show like Maggie Speak as the Head Contestant Coordinator and the Stage Manager and Glenn the producer and others. There were rumors when his history broke in the Ringer article that he forced Friedman out because of all the other scummy things he did at Price is Right and here, but that’s probably just attributing the worst onto him. Should probably bring Friedman back for a bit to help chose a new host and right the drat ship though! RaspberrySea posted:https://twitter.com/James_Holzhauer/status/1430929275587207169 I’ll give one thing to James: when someone is definitely deserving to eat poo poo, he really brings it. Shame that he also targets a lot of people that don’t deserve it though. HookShot posted:https://twitter.com/nytmedia/status/1430743958364295169 However, it really is disheartening the amount of people coming out of the woodwork (who probably don’t even watch Jeopardy in the first place) scoffing that too much ink (digital and otherwise) is being wasted on a “mere” search for a game show host and denying that Jeopardy is otherwise a television institution, or worse, slamming Claire McNear as heralding the next coming of Cancel Culture or McCarthy. It’s not like she literally wrote a book about the show that released right after Trebek passed, and this is pretty much her beat.

Mike Richards having a "minder" reminds me of the old anecdote about a guy who had been hired to work security for the WWF and his role was to keep an eye on the Macho Man Randy Savage. "Your job is to keep Randy away from Elizabeth, and to keep him away from cocaine. You will fail at one of these."

I saw an article I think on Variety where they interviewed Friedman and he said he 100% definitely was not pushed out at all and that the execs at Sony actually tried really hard to keep him on. But no, he started after Alex was diagnosed. Also, while I have no proof of this, I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of the long-term staffers leaving the show had little to do with Alex and everything to do with Richards. Especially given Glenn's lawsuit against Sony for age discrimination.

Let me impart a little common sense on you. Don't make fun of other people's names. Especially don't make fun of any ethnic names outside of your culture. Don't understand a name? Google! It's so loving easy to not be lovely about this. BaronVonVaderham posted:having a really weird name doesn't help.

Honestly, this has been a liberating experience for me-- been trying out for this goddamned mess for years, and I have become so thoroughly disgusted by the main players in all this horseshit that I genuinely don't even miss being able to watch it anymore. Hell, why should I wreck my reputation sharing a stage with those assholes? I can wreck my own goddamned reputation just fine.

I've referred to her as Blossom since I haven't quite gotten the spelling of Bialik down fully. Yes, I'm aware it's shorter. I don't want her on the show not because she's a woman but because I don't think she was the best candidate as my written diarrhea known as posts have made clear. As for Mike, it's just amusing he has the same name as the actor who played Kramer. I don't think he was the best candidate either so he can stay behind the scenes unless he's negatively impacted the show which he seems to have done directly & indirectly. I have no knowledge whatsoever either about the show's production or in general. I haven't thought of it in terms of misogyny since my gonads would be quickly separated from my body if it was (and to make clear, I am not a misogynist) but if that's the look it gives off then I'll stop. They are Dr. Bialik and Mr. Richards, not Blossom and Kramer.
