Re: Ken Jennings as Jeopardy! Host

I think my top three would have been Richards, Rogers and Faber. It's been a treat actually watching Alex Trebek on the old Classic Concentration! games showing on BUZZR on 2.3! You'd think someone might have updated this on their website though.... https://i.postimg.cc/d3gz63dH/Trebek.jpg I love C...

Re: Ken Jennings as Jeopardy! Host

Looks like Mike Richards might end up with the gig. If this happens, I guess that means Sony will have to find a replacement Exec Producer.

Very intriguing draft for the Pistons...

I might actually have to re-engage in more than casual interest.
Get to 41 wins, then I’ll pretend to start to care.

The gentleman hosting right now (WDIV airs Jeopardy early during the Olympics) is doing a terrific job.

David Faber is the dude's name.
He’s from CNBC.

I completely agree. He is great.

Re: Ken Jennings as Jeopardy! Host

He seems like a nice guy but just not right for this role. I saw only a portion of tonight's show but I can't see my opinion changing even if I see him Thurs or Fri. Is he on for one week or two? Who's left to see? LeVar only has 1 week. Next is… 1 week with David Faber from CNBC. 1 week of Joe Buc...

Re: Ken Jennings as Jeopardy! Host

Got to say, I thought LeVar improved quite a bit on night #2. Then he must've been downright awful his first night! I didn't see his debut, but his second appearance left me...oh, what's the word I'm groping for...nonplussed? Ho-hum? In any case, he's not the one I want to replace Alex. He has thre...

Re: Ken Jennings as Jeopardy! Host

George Stephanopoulos was okay, but displayed little regard for the show's legacy of greatness - a game show host he is not. Robin Roberts simply displayed a forced enthusiasm that I doubt I could handle for another week. Yeah, I know, at least she tried. Next! Next week is the main guy that the Tw...

Priceless!

And how WXYZ Sportscaster Brad Galli publicly praised Scillian on WDIV's Facebook page for his las...

Re: Ken Jennings as Jeopardy! Host

Alas, it might not be looking good for our girl, Mayam Bialik, as she now holds the ranking of last place when it comes to the ratings of the various Jeopardy guest hosts.

Re: Howard Stern on 97.1

Ed Tyll wasn't that bad himself but that intro is the worst ever. Didn't care for his show. It was too serious a show for the station. Horrible fit to follow Stern. However, I found Scott & Casey to be even more unlistenable (their show was as interesting as watching paint dry). I know many people ...

Re: Dan Bongino Show Starts Monday 5-24-2021 On WJR

I was rooting for Mark Steyn to be Limbaugh's successor. As was I. Would have been a no-brainer. Limbaugh's audience knows him and he's got a lot of Rush's snark. Hard pass on the new show. I’m shocked they did not go with Steyn. He was easily the fan favorite among the Limbaugh guest hosts. I thin...

Re: Dan Bongino Show Starts Monday 5-24-2021 On WJR

I've heard of Buck Sexton - many iHM news/talk outlets air him - but I've never listened. I have no idea who Clay Travis is. He appears to have spent much of his media career in sports radio circles and in Nashville. Unless Mr. Travis undergoes some sort of transformation where he attempts to reinv...
