You're not the only one who didn't care for Mayim. Myself, she was decent if not for that annoying giggling at times.MWmetalhead wrote: ↑Sat Aug 21, 2021 4:36 pmAm I the only one who didn't care for her performance as host?
As for Mr. Richards, here is an insightful article regarding his game show career:

The guy sure sounds like a snake, and regardless of what one thinks of his past transgressions, I wouldn't feel too sorry for him. He's still Executive Producer of both Wheel and Jeopardy, a gig that likely pays extremely well.
Someone with his baggage should not be hosting a high class show such as Jeopardy. Richards stacked the deck against LeVar Burton, giving him only a single week's worth of shows, with all of those shows airing during the middle of the Olympics to boot.
I'd like to see David Faber get the job.
I read the Ringer story myself and thought to myself, "Why do we go from classy with Alex to this guy?".
David Faber was a great host. He'd be great if they were to find someone who wasn't a big-name celebrity.
