How many times have four day champions been eliminated?

By the way Ken Jennings is working out way better than I expected. He's very good.

The Wall Street Journal has reported that the “Jeopardy!” champ was all set to take over Alex Trebek’s spot after the longtime host passed away in November 2020 — until people went digging into his Twitter history.

Jennings, 47, has since apologized for the posts — describing them as “unartful and insensitive” in an open apology — including a tasteless joke that read: “nothing sadder than a hot person in a wheelchair.”

4. He's not the replacement?

I don't remember ever hearing a definitive statement on that, but I kind of assumed that if Jennings is on every day he was chosen to host.

Who is the replacement, then? I have always been a Jennings fan.

5. He's introduced as hosting Jeopardy, the woman from Bing Bang Theroy is

Introduced as the host of Jeopardy. They split the time, or at least they have been. The Jeopardy fans go nuts because she calls Jeopardy, Single Jeopardy.
