I hadn't heard of that petition, or considered him on my own, but now that you bring that up I have to agree, I think that Levar Burton would be great.

I suspect, given the current political climate in Hollywood, no white, or Asian man will be given serious consideration. We will end up with Kim Kardashian, or the like, and lucky to get Miley Cyrus (j/k).

I think Ken Jennings has the inside track if this were not so. However, he didn't do himself any favors with his recent appearance a clue presenter, and I think many people will feel his timing WRT joining the cast to be a little morbid.

Where do I go to sign the petition for bendable?

When he announced that he was battling cancer, there was an interview done, that was aired after his death.
He was asked this very question.

Without hesitation, he answered Betty White!

My daughter stopped by last night to check on me and we got into this same question...we both sorta agreed on Ken Jennings but also agreed that Alex Trebek can’t really be replaced...but we think the show should stay on the air.

Whome ever they get , I am sure it's going to take a month or two for them to get settled in.

I remember when Drew Cary took over the price is right.

It took four months for him to make it his show.

The premise would be a game show, where contestants choose questions by a dollar value, with more difficult questions having higher value. Certain questions allow the first to respond to “wager” up to the dollar value they’d won that day.

Probably one, maybe two seasons tops.

Alex was Jeopardy. Since he did this for 35 years, why not rerun all the shows. That should take us to 2055. Then we'll worry about it.

But he'd have to do it in the English accent (which is fake. He's American.)

This is probably the best idea to come out of this thread. Smile

Now sing his name over and over to the main theme music of GoT. You'll never forget his name.

Have a 3 day game with these three and the winner gets Alex’s spot. IBM’s Watson can power a holographic Alex for this game’s host.
