Mike Richards jeopardy host

We’ll just found out he is no longer a host.  He resigned due to his comments about women.  It didn’t say what he said, just he had made negative comments.

I enjoyed having the different hosts on.  I was not really impressed with him one way or the other.

We seldom watch Jeopardy any more and doubt if it will ever be the same again.

I like jeopardy and don't really care who the host or contestants are - I like seeing the answers and figuring out what the questions are.

We’ll just found out he is no longer a host.  He resigned due to his comments about women.  It didn’t say what he said, just he had made negative comments.
It wasn't just comments about women. He has made comments about firing pregnant models, referring to little people by a derogatory term, anti-Semitic remarks, asking women if they have taken nude photos and wanting to see photos, his views on people being welfare, etc.

I thought it was just a comment or two he made years ago that people were using to attack him with but there is a history of this.
"Let me ask you something. If the rule you followed brought you to this, of what use was the rule?"

I really don't watch so it doesn't matter to me who the host is, but he was short lived

The host that past away was the show. Now one else can embody that position more than he could. Doesn't matter who they get for host it just wont be the same

It's sad as I thought he was quite credible being executive producer of Jeopardy for so long and he clearly is knowledged about the game and its content.
