Not all that often. I often do watch the Final Jeopardy clips they put on YouTube and am currently invested in Matt Amodio's massive streak. Speaking of... *watches today's*

If I'm not working on a week day, I usually try to tune in at 4:30 to check it. The problem is I'm usually working then.

Off and on in general, but through the pandemic I picked up the habit of watching it very regularly. I've burned out on it recently though and figure it's better to do other things at 7:30PM anyway.

Recent choices of host are probably going to help break the habit.

Once in a while, and when there is a wild streak or a big tournament I will watch.
That said, didn't know there was a guy on a run at the moment.

No. I was watching regularly for James Holzhaur's run like a lot of people, but since then I've only caught a few episodes here and there.

I haven't watched it regularly ever since they started dumbing down their questions for ratings.

I watch sporadically, but when people go on runs I tune out. I doubt I'll even glance at it until this current one ends.

The show isn't remotely interesting to watch when it's like this, and I wish they'd bring a maximum days limit back.

This is when I stop watching, personally.

There's a guy on now who has been winning a lot recently. Like he has been dominating almost every board so far. Still has a long way before he catches Holzhaur or Jennings though

Amodio is now #3 on the winnings list behind those two, so he's getting used in the same sentence. Deservingly so. A mega-champ may be what Jeopardy needs at this time of transition.

Some people who are upset at the new host probably don't watch Jeopardy much anyway. Richards was alright; David Faber was the most Alex-like, though. Mayim was pretty great though.

If I had to tier the guest hosts... no specific order in each tier:

TOP TIER: Bialik, Faber, Rodgers
UPPER MID TIER: Buck (!?), Cohen, Guthrie, Jennings, Roberts
LOWER MID TIER: Burton, Cooper, Richards, Stephenopolous, Whitaker
BOTTOM TIER: Couric (she didn't care), Gupta (too "robotic news reporter"), Oz (he sucks)

you have oz at the bottom because he sucks, and yet your top sucks nearly as bad in the same ways

My mother watches this show. I think she liked Mayim as the host. And Ken Jennings.

Watching Jeopardy regularly would imply I actually watch TV.

Bialik was actually awful. It's a total head scratcher when I hear people say she was good at it.

Faber and Rodgers were both great though.

So... now what?

I'm curious to know his reasoning. Possibly cancel culture got to him. Maybe this whole "guest host" thing ended up being bad for the show because of how toxic Karens/Aarons were going to whine until they got their way. They're probably going to bully whoever it is unless it's LeVar Burton, who was a terrible fit for Jeopardy.

Richards was a good host. Shame.

Of course I watch Jeopardy. Best gameshow ever.

They will be going back to guest hosts again in the short term. What a disaster.
