Jun 11, 2024 · Ken Jennings, famed for his 74-game winning streak on “Jeopardy!” and now its host, sat down with CBS News to discuss taking over the show, previously helmed by Alex Trebek for 37 seasons.
- Mike Richards. Show Air Dates: February 22, 2021- March 5, 2021.
- Buzzy Cohen. Show Air Dates: May 17, 2021 – May 28, 2021. On the flip side of Bill Whitaker, Buzzy Cohen may at first seem like too dynamic of a personality to work as a Jeopardy!
- Mayim Bialik. Show Air Dates: May 31, 2021 – June 11, 2021. Mayim Bialik was a real pleasant surprise in her stint as host. In fact, she’s the best Jeopardy!
- David Faber. Show Air Dates: August 2, 2021 – August 6, 2021. David Faber’s brief hosting stint on Jeopardy! provides compelling evidence that Alex Trebek’s replacement really should be a “nobody.”

The controversial TV doctor, who has come under fire for his medical advice on his own show and appearances on cable news, was an odd choice for a guest-hosting gig thatrankled many fans. And while much of the criticism of Oz rolled in before his episodes even began airing, his appearance didn't do much to prove his critics wrong. Fundamentally, Oz...
While the "Jeopardy!" host has to be a bit of a cipher to avoid distracting from the game play, CBS' "60 Minutes" correspondent took that a bit too far as guest host. So soft spoken that he didn't show much personality at all, Whitaker was informed and broadcast-ready, but far too dull, especially during his first episode, which had poor contestant...
CNN's medical expert brought his know-how and TV experience to his shot at the quiz show, but his style ended up more boring than notable, not unlike fellow talking head Whitaker. Despite his authority reading the clues and ability to add fun facts, Gupta simply didn't have the speed or humor that has proved to be so important to a successful host....
The former "Today" host and "CBS Evening News" anchor made history as the first woman to host "Jeopardy!"and did an admirable job during her two week-stint. Couric perhaps brought more of her bright, enthusiastic personality to the job than viewers were used to with the reserved (but witty) Trebek. Sometimes she distracted from the game, or spent t...
Although the author and CNBC analyst was at ease behind the podium, he was almost too comfortable in the position. His cheesy demeanor and grin felt a bit fake, as did his stilted banter with the contestants. And while some of the worst hosts have been too slow to respond and read clues, Faber was actually too fast in moving the episode along, as t...
After a few stumbles in his first episode (and a record-breaking bad showingfrom one player), Burton shook off some early nerves to offer a bit smoother of a performance as his week progressed. Although he struggled a bit with his timing (especially when responding to a wrong answer), Burton was lively, professional and jolly – a grownup version of...
When the "Today" star took to the "Jeopardy!" stage, she was the 10th guest host to try her hand at the game, and her performance suffered in comparison because so many great contenders had stepped up before her. Guthrie was concise, warm, knowledgeable and a bit more reserved than she is on "Today," a pivot that feels appropriate given the setting...
If you ever wondered what it might be like for a very chill, very friendly bro to host the game show, Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgersis here for you. The former Super Bowl champion – and perhaps more importantly, onetime "Celebrity Jeopardy!" champion – brought an extremely relaxed and genial presence to the series in his guest-hosting ...
ABC's The "GMA" anchor is the first in a final group of hosts who will get just one week of shows to prove their mettle. Stephanopoulos is a smooth, clean, comforting guy to do a quick five episodes. Of all the newscasters (besides Cooper) to try the job, Stephanopoulos is the most relaxed and poised of the bunch. Watching him, it feels less like h...
Chipper, charming and chill, Robertsis a buoyant and easygoing presence. The "GMA" host brought the warmth of her morning show career into the "Jeopardy!" studio without making things too casual. Her rapport with the contestants was immediate and witty, and after a few pacing fumbles in her first episode she quickly developed a natural clue-reading...
