I see your point but i still think my opinion of bringing a celebrity in cheapens it. Saying Trebek was already well known before hosting Jeopardy isn't really relevant. He was known for hosting game shows, he wasn't a celebrity.
Whatever, you say LOL

It's already been pointed out that Alex was already known before he became Jepardy's host. He certainly didn't cheapen Jeoprady LOL. You're certainly entitled to your opinion however, you probably should watch the guest hosts before forming an opinion. Mike Richards was the executive producer who guest hosted Jeopardy and he was fine but since you "heard" he was good and didn't see the show yourself not sure how you can give an educated opinion about who should host.
As I said before, all the guest hosts I thought did a fine job and when a permanent host is selected I'm sure they will do a fine job as host.

He had hosted many game shows in the US, mostly on NBC, before he was hired to host Jeopardy!
Exactly, that's my point. They are not going to hire Joe schmoe off the street It has to be some sort of celebrity in whatever field.

I just don't want to see a celebrity (entertainer or athlete) take over.
And why is that? At this point Ken Jennings and all the tournament winners are celebrities.Newcasters are celebrities and so on. Who's left?

Jesslyn Fax of course, I could hear her voice all day today but could not remember what she was in. She was the one who sat on the lounge chair and said hello to Raymond Burr and he was nasty to her. I haven't seen Our Miss Brooks in years, hasn't been shown here in re-run. Glad that one is solved, I was going nuts trying to remember.

Maybe I'm not being critical enough here, but I think all the guest hosts have been good. Well, at least I've never found myself thinking any of them were ill-suited for the gig, anyway.
I thought Buzzy Cohen (or as I think of him "The Modern Day Harold Lloyd"...am I RIGHT or what?!...and NOT just because of the glasses...saaay, maybe I'll put these two in that "Lookalikes" thread...but I digress) was especially good at it and showed a lot of personality when he hosted.
(...and yeah, I think it'd be fun hosting it myself...well, as long as I wouldn't "digress" too much anyway, and which of course COULD be a problem...well, besides pronoucing all those foreign words and phrases and which Alex was always so good at)
I've liked all the hosts too. Thought they've all done a good job. I thought Aaron Rodgers did a very job of hosting. Buzzy was fine, Ken was too. No one will ever be as good as Alex was but Jeopardy has to continue and we'll have to like and accept the new host.

Number 9 has me stumped. She reminds me of a lot of different actresses.
#9 has a slight resemblance to Shirley MacLaine I think, it's not her but that might be who you are seeing a resemblance to
-
13 is so familiar but I'm blanking out on her. She was in I Love Lucy episodes and others, just cannot remember.
-
Yes, I can see it. I think you've picked very difficult ones.
2. David Huddleston?
4. Harry Towne
12. Hope Summers ?
15. Don Keefer ?

12:30 am is NOT the night before, it is the new morning. I don’t know about “most” people but that’s not the way it works in crime dramas. The narrator does not say 12:30 on a Saturday night, he says 12:30 on a Sunday morning.
We are talking about how TCM shows movies. Are you purposely being dense? You purposely mixing up Hitchcock's leading ladies was bad enough. It showed a lack of respect and disregard for classic film stars. Now you are taking issue with someone's post who is disappointed because the Sunday 10 am noir is not being shown. For your information, TCM considers the 12am Saturday NIGHT showing just that. NOT a Sunday morning showing but a Saturday night showing. The 10 am showing on Sunday is the Sunday morning showing. Got it now?

Yes and when I click on the gif';s I get a black screen with a wheel turning and nothing else. I';ve tried and had my daughter try, cannot get the photos.

Brad is ok, however, of the 3 during the champ tournaments he won the least amount compared to james and Ken Jennings. Brad may have been the big money winner in the past but not in the recent tournaments.
Pat Sajak, no way. I think Wheel of Fortune is about as far as he can go. I doubt he could pronounce most of the wording in the questions.
We also watch Alex on re-runs many Sat nights. I do ok, not great when I watch and yes it all depends on the categories. What I do find is that most times I get the final Jeopardy answer correct. But again, if it's a question in a category I don't know well, then forget about it LOL. although many times just a small amount of knowledge and some logical thinking can get the correct answer, especially in Final Jeopardy
To answer your question, no, I wouldn't be able or want to host Jeopardy. I remember the College Bowl and when Art Fleming hosted Jeopardy. .

No, cannot see them. When I click on the site you give I still get that black screen with the turning circle and the photos in your question do not show up here either. Sorry, but I guess I'm not playing this round. Thanks for trying though.

Never mind, there’s no keyboard associated with the tv, no way to command it. The post from Noir Alley I’m assuming is wrong when the say the film is airing at 12:30 am eastern time Saturday. That would be Friday night, right?
Why even question that post.. Obviously 12:30am is literally Sunday morning, however to most of us 12:30 am is still nightime and that was what the poster meant. That 12:30 am showing would be considered the Saturday night showing of the noir., The Sunday morning time slot is 10:00 am that is the Sunday morning time showing of the noir. Not at all confusing.

I'm not sure why...I hit the edit button and they all came back up...can you see them now?
No, just a circle turning over and over on a black screen

I guess I'm out on this question. Don't know how Princess and Chaya got to see the photos but when I click on the sites, the photos will not show up

Sepia, I understand how you feel, for me though, always being a golden age film fan, it was hoot seeing Ann and the rest. I didn't and don't think any less of them or their contributions to films. I just thought it was fun seeing them and I still respected them. We'll agree to disagree on this one, although believe me I understand how you feel.

How do you feel about Joe Namath's commercials? I hate them.
Do you mean the medicare commercials now being aired? It sort of freaks me out, remembering him as a young man, he didn't age all that well. I cannot stand all those medicare advantage commercials because it seems every other ad is for that. It's overkill.
