Default Ken Jennings to be first guest host of Jeopardy!

I don’t follow the show much. I know about Jennings being one of their longest winning contestants.

Just wanted to drop something positive in the lobby!

I think the guy will work out as the permanent host. I think his background is clean. If he had sold any weapons to the Contra’s we would have known about it by now!

Do you have to have a clean background to be on TV?

I heard this morning that Jennings is just going to be one of a few stand in hosts, until the station finds a permanent replacement. That being said I’m guessing Jennings isn’t interested in a permanent spot. Will be interesting to see if the show will hold up to this great loss.

He is the first one that came to my mind. Don't know if he wants a long-term gig but hopefully he'll do a good job as a fill in.

I noticed in the credits at the end of today's show that Ken Jennings is already working there as a consulting producer.
