    In an attempt to boost ratings, I guess, CNN has managed to sink an entire network.

    Once Brianna Keiler and John Berman were dumped off the morning show, I never tune in till 2 pm. On good note Brianna Golodryga has been co-hosting with Victor Blackwell for two hours.

    Didn't someone post not long ago that Victor was going to be relocated again?

    I just found this discussion after wondering what in the world is going on at CNN.  The main thing that hit me was this post and Brianna Golodryga.  Her appearing on air back whenever was the first time I stopped watching CNN.  She was like an AI.  Shut all facial expression when not talking  and super rapid blinks that made me start yawning for some reason.  She has improved but I change channels anytime I see her on air.  Of course I'm changing the channel frequently now when CNN was usually running in the background all day.

    Wishing your mom a complete and speedy recovery.  I also get Hitler vibes from the Champs appearance.  I can't even look at the screen. My dad was a Holocaust survivor so his look really triggers me.

    Playing catch up thru the dvr and my first glimpse and first thought was Hitler.  He has to be aware of the resemblance so while I wouldn't berate him over it I really don't want to watch him.  Why couldn't he be on Mayim's turn?

    They almost lost me before they got started.

    Kill a dog within the first 5 minutes?

    Burn in hell, you bastards. 🤬🤬🤬

    I wish I'd read this before I decided to watch it for curiosity's sake rather than just delete the recording.  And what they hey!  Gilligan old?  I've had many old dogs in my 70 years but never one with a perfectly black muzzle.  Deleted it immediately and won't watch another.

  4. I feel like they're cramming Mayim down our throats.  I can't find anywhere where the host is named, just the contestants.  I have to watch the beginning of the show and then change the channel when I find she's on.

    I tried The Jeopardy Fan and not only is it not listed but the co-hosting announcement really ticked  me off..."I also hope that this announcement will stop the constant lobbying from so-called “fans” who, often for misogynistic or anti-Semitic reasons, do not want to see Bialik hosting."  Uh....after all the guest hosts my first choice was Robin Roberts, second Buzzy Cohen, then Ken. 

    I've asked friends, none of whom watch Jeopardy, about her.  The reaction has been "Who?".  Till I tell them she was on Big Bang Theory.  Then they say they like her.  Me?  I never watched Big Bang and my only experience with her has been her commercial and her Jeopardy performance.  Fail.

    I've been ready to give up on Jeopardy and then Ken shows up and I'm happy temporarily.  I don't think this will last.....they'll eventually have her on too long for me to even watch to check.

  5. There are so many factors to enjoying a show.  I completely dropped the Walking Dead after Negan's torture porn.  As a late comer to Supernatural I was horrified when Jeffrey Dean Morgan showed up on that.  I couldn't watch those episodes.  That one role ruined the actor for me.  I wouldn't of liked Mayim anyway but her brain pill commercial and her voice and attitude escalated it. and I'll never like her for anything. 

    CNN's reporting stated that we will be kept updated with who is hosting when.  That might be bearable to know I can avoid her.  The only way I know now is by coming here

    Robin Roberts.  She was my favourite of all the guest hosts (though she probably just did it as a once-off and wouldn’t have been interested).  I commented on the other thread that I like Mayim as an actress but she’s just not a good Jeopardy host.  

    Yes my favorite too.

    I wonder if the suits are sorry that they didn't just pick Ken during the wave of time when Mike Richards appointed himself. This is what comes of being overly cautious about one careless, in-poor-taste tweet. We're stuck with Mayim . . . (that's correct!) for at least another year.

    So I need to check back in a year?  I doubt I'll still be interested then, all this who is hosting and then not knowing and being subjected to her voice.....there are just way too many other things I could be doing to worry about that irritation and the foul mood it puts me in.  I'd just as soon watch news.

  8. I'm so tired of trying to keep track of who's hosting I'm really ready to just give it all up.  It's too much trouble and if I make a mistake and hear Mayim's voice it ruins the whole rest of the night for me.  I liken my response to her to my response to Negan on The Walking Dead.  Or Tyra Banks on Dancing with the Stars.  Gone

  9. I hope they  pay attention to that poll.  Several days ago reading this forum I realized I hadn't seen a commercial for Mayim's brain pill recently.  Since then I've seen it but hadn't been noticing it because she wasn't in it.  I hope it isn't something they asked her to quit for the Jeopardy job.  I would of disliked her anyway but that commercial sealed it.

  10. I guess I'm a sucker.  I bawled my eyes out at the dog act with the dog trying to get her attention.  Too many things, people, pets we take for granted.  Then I got mauled trying to compensate by giving my 2 huge pitties attention.  Reminder to self....next time grab a cat.

    They have already been on at the same time. Mayim was hosting during Mattea's first week. 

    I missed it since I don't watch Mayim.  Actually what bugs me most about Mattea is how when she's not talking her mouth just hangs partially open!

    I prefer Mayim to Ken...but I prefer JEOPARDY! to any game show/trivia show, etc. so I'll accept what little they decide to give me.

    That said, can't STAND poor Mayim's "sitcom."   The writing is so beneath her.

    I would watch her if I thought there was a chance of a loser saying "But I took your brain pill!"  Not going to happen and even if it did they'd edit it out.

    What I have noticed is that animal categories are the last to be chosen, and players, young and old, are not proficient in animal-kingdom knowledge. Again, that's a category that requires a person have an interest in it, just like current DJs or 1940s movie stars require interest in those categories. I just don't see it as an "age" thing. It's an "interest" thing.

    This made me laugh.  I was watching local morning news today and they had a bit about hamsters and corona virus.  Then proceeded to show a pretty long clip of guinea pigs!

    Amy appeared on CNN's "Reliable Sources" this morning, with Brian Stelter.  It was a nice interview, not too much that we did not already know.  

    She made a very good push for Ken as the host.  I agree with her.  He's eased into it so that I actually like him better than Alex.  (I know...sacrilege) He's easy going, humorous and genuinely seems to like people.

    Considering ratings have increased because of Amy's streak, I don't see why they'd bring back limits.

    I don't understand that.  I'm wanting to get my fill of Jeopardy before Mayim comes back and I find myself feeling like I'm in Groundhog Day.  I like Amy better than I liked James or Matt but I feel like  there's no suspense, especially once she gets a huge lead.  Yeah....she's great at the game but even someone very good at something can be boring when it's over and over and over again.

    Can someone please tell me how to watch the show? CBS is not on Dish anymore. 

    We don’t have NBC on Dish right now in our area. They are in a carrier dispute with Tegna. 
     

    You can watch it on the Paramount+ App, the free version.

    Here Dish has removed ABC.  Must be disputing with someone everywhere!

    I really hate that commercial, not only that she hawks that stuff, but the smug way she does it.  It completely affects my view of her.  I can't wait for Ken either.  One of my stations has been running reruns of when he hosted and I like him a lot.   He wasn't my first choice (go Buzzy) but I'd be ok with him.          

    Yes, that's it!  She seemed smug on the show too.  I like Ken Jennings but Robin Roberts would of been my first choice.  Then Buzzy then, heck I've forgotten most of them.
