New Jeopardy host preference? / Jeopardy updates

“Super moderator” is just the term CC uses for some reason. Moderators didn’t pick it, ha.

Moderators are allowed to participate in discussions. They just can’t moderate threads they are active in. If they see an issue, they can ask another moderator to look into it.

Mayim will start hosting in January. Oh, well…

Sorry to hear that. I think many more people prefer Ken. I was hoping they would go with Ken as permanent host.

They had previously announced that Mayim and Ken would split duties this year as co-permanent hosts.

IMO Ken has really grown into the job and is doing great! I wonder if Mayim will show a similar growth as host (or else things may change up again next year - maybe she will just do prime time specials or something).

Celebrity Jeopardy has been awful. I have only watched it occasionally in 10-minute increments. Not sure if it due to Mayim of the “celebrities” or both.

Interesting Final Jeopardy tonight. I thought it was another very easy question, but that could be because I describe myself as the term very often!

My first thought when I heard FJ tonight was that it was way too easy. Surprised not all 3 got it.

Couldn’t believe NOBODY got Crosby, Stills, & Nash.

I couldn’t believe nobody got Tom, Dick, and Harry.

Same here. Another benefit of that college Shakespeare class

I agree that it seemed easy, and I know nothing about Shakespeare.

This game sure showed how important the Daily Doubles are. Chris bet big and missed one; Andy bid big and got the right answer. Otoh I think Chris would have won if he had got The Tempest

I was definitely ready to move on from Cris (just my opinion). Glad some others will be getting a chance.
