Jeopardy is back tonight

[malaise]

Go Matt!

[LisaM]

1. Darn, I forgot about him.

LOL.

[senseandsensibility]

2. I'll have to record it. It's

preempted her for the Raider's game and reshown at 10:30 local time. So no spoilers please. And yes, go Matt!

[Totally Tunsie]

3. They scrubbed it well of any reference to or celebration of

Mike Richards in any permanent role...merely "And here's the host of Jeopardy, Mike Richards".

Let the season begin...

[malaise]

4. Yep

That was well done

[CTyankee]

12. Yes, I saw that and they didn't say "guest host" just "host." What happened? I thought he was

knocked out of consideration as host (but would remain producer)?

[Sympthsical]

13. They recorded a few episodes before he was fired

So they're just going to burn them off unceremoniously.

Also, they probably don't want to remind anyone of the guest hosting debacle, lol.

14. Five episodes hosted by Richards were recorded, so he won't even be

a speck in the rear-view mirror for those who tune in next week.

[CTyankee]

15. Thanks. Before I found out about his dirty past I thought he was the best of the bunch at hosting.

Watching him last night with what I know now, I felt icky.

[LetMyPeopleVote]

6. I am boycotting this week with that host who got fired

[malaise]

7. Spoiler - ignore the host

I am watching Matt- now 19 wins and over $640,000

8. That Champion is like a computer!

He questions the most obscure answers.

[malaise]

9. He's really good

[kentuck]

10. He goes after those daily doubles..

And when he hits them, he bets a ton.

[malaise]

11. Not always

The first one yes - but many times has only bet $2,000 in the second round. He's really smart and knows when it's safe to go big.
