As Jeopardy! searches for a long-term host to fill the shoes of the late, great Alex Trebek, according to some fans, that search is over. Following the six week stint of Jeopardy! legend Ken Jennings, the show found itself at a loss as other high-profile guest-hosts like CNN’s Anderson Cooper and Green Bay quarterback Aaron Rodgers had to be postponed due to COVID-19. In stepped executive producer Mike Richards, who became an instant hit with fans. After guest-hosting his first show on Monday, fans were already clamoring for Richards to be given the role permanently, with more climbing on the bandwagon after his second show on Tuesday, which he opened with a beautiful shout out to Trebek.
