Is Levar Burton the choice? My choice is Brooke Burns.
LeVar probably did the worst of all the guest hosts. He admitted he did zero preparation. And it showed. Those calling for him obviously didn’t watch his episodes.
I’d choose Brooke as well. Just not to host Jeopardy.
Sorry, Bo, I called dibs..
Okay, I mostly only watch Jeopardy when someone is on an impressive winning streak. Matt Amodio is one of the elites, he doesn’t appear to have any weaknesses, similar to James, Brad, and Ken.. He was very fortunate to win his 1st game, he easily could have been ousted and slipped into oblivion..Almost all runaways since then.
In one of Matt’s latest wins, the challenger went against the odds in Final Jeopardy trying to win.
Just rounding the numbers, Matt had $30k, Ruth had $21k, and Steve had $200. Knowing Matt is playing aggressively to win, he will bet at least $12,001. Ruth bet all $21k. Steve doesn’t really matter.
My opinion is Ruth should bet less than $3k. If Matt gets question wrong, she wins. Based on her real bet, she must get it right and hope Matt gets it wrong. Maybe she just wanted to win $42k instead of $21k, but based on strategy to win, she made it less likely.. It was moot after he got it right and she missed it anyways..
