The saga continues. Richards stepped down as host and has now been fired from the producing job as well. Sony has done a good job of making this whole process a real clusterfuck. Maybe they can hire someone who can bring back some professionalism to the show.
After stepping down as ‘Jeopardy!’ host, Mike Richards has also been fired as executive producer of the long-running game show.

I’m afraid they will screw it up even more and hire a celebrity and the show will also any appeal it had and instead be a showcase for the host.

They are replacing Buzzy Cohen hosting the tournament right now. Maybe the people in charge will watch and hire him is Ken Jennings is too “problematic”

Exactly. Most of the people screaming about it on social media only watched the week the person they like hosted. Why should the show care what they think?

Ok no way am I saying that what Richard’s did was okay, but cancel culture on whole is ridiculous. Something resurfaces from 10 years ago shouldn’t be grounds for dismissal. I be hard pressed to say that someone has lived such a saintly life that they don’t have at least 1 skeleton in their closet.
