Well for one he spoiled a movie the other day. After a contestant answers he goes “yup. They drive off a cliff and Rodger dies” or something like that. Added nothing to the show and his delivery of extra info like that is super awkward. He almost sounds like he doesn’t even want to be there.

I wish he’d just lose it and say
Eeeh! Sorry Hans, wrong guess. Would you like to go for Double Jeopardy where the scores can really change?
IDK if I’d call a 5-time champion “shit-tier”.
She beat Ken on The Chase this year, he’s probably still salty.
x-posted from the NFL thread. This really has me looking forward to Godgers hosting next week.

Lolol looks like the very first episode contestants were zinging him with fake final jeopardy answers like “What are Packers suck? Go Buccs Tom Brady GOAT”
“Just wait until you see the first show and what the returning champion wrote, and then think about me standing at the podium watching – and this will make sense when you see what he wrote – and I’m watching him write this down,” Rodgers said. "For about 25 seconds, I’m watching him write this, and he thinks about the answer and says ‘F— it,’ basically, ‘I’m going to write this answer,’ which, probably one of the viral moments of my two weeks will be his response, which is taking a shot at something that happened to us late in the season.
All y’all saying that Godgers would be the best guest host by a mile are looking pretty dumb right now

Doing Ambien before taping was not a wise decision.

he looked good, he seemed comfortable, but his tone is really irritating. too monotone. worst guest host yet? worse than oz, i hate to say
The fact that he was willing to do the mid-clue Larry David impression put him above the last two for me.
The voice, though…
“America paid money to these kidnapping victims” and all three contestants have different but wrong responses because USA#1 abducts so many people was an amazing moment. The slaves? Native Americans? Japanese internment people?

I only watched final since I read about what Rodgers said about a crazy answer and yeah, I can see where his voice wouldn’t be good for this. It’s just naturally too quiet. I’m sure he’ll do a decent job in general, but his voice doesn’t lend itself to being a game show host. It’s not like he’s gunning for the full-time job, though - it’s just a fun guest appearance.
He is
Unless he’s planning on retiring really soon, I can’t imagine they’d hire someone then can that person in favor of Rodgers. How long are they planning on having guest hosts?
EDIT: Thinking about it, it would be pretty wild to see Godgers host Jeopardy for the next 30 years.
I mean he can host for 20-30 years. Why wouldn’t he retire early if the situation was right?
This is already his last year on the Packers. Could just retire. But apparently he’s not a good host so maybe not.
Fwiw I think he’ll probably be much better by the end of next week. It’s hard to compare him to oz on day 1 when oz has been doing tv for like 20 years
