“#Mike Richards in ‘Advanced Talks’ to Become Permanent ‘Jeopardy!’ Host<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

Has Jeopardy!<\/em> found its permanent host? The quiz show is reportedly in advanced negotiations with executive producer Mike Richards to take over the post.<\/p>\n

According to Variety<\/em><\/a>, Richards is the front-runner for the gig previously held by the late great Alex Trebek. Fans got to know Richards following first guest host and GOAT champ Ken Jennings\u2018 run in the position earlier this year.<\/p>\n

Several others have taken over guest-hosting duties since, making it clear that the show was considering its options, but they\u2019re supposedly narrowing in Richards\u2019 favor. After Trebek died in November of 2020, the remainder of his episodes aired through the first week of the new year in 2021, when the guest hosts first began taking over.<\/p>\n

Variety <\/em>stated that a Sony Pictures spokesman said discussions about the permanent hosting job are still ongoing with other potential candidates still in the race. While the spokesperson wouldn\u2019t comment on Richards specifically, the word \u201cfrontrunner\u201d is being used to describe his status. Others who have reportedly been strongly considered are Tournament of Champions vet Buzzy Cohen and The Big Bang Theory<\/em>\u2018s Mayim Bialik.<\/p>\n

Currently, David Faber is fronting the game<\/a> show with Joe Buck to follow him in the final week of the season.<\/p>\n

Richards\u2019 experience in the game show world is extensive. He served as host of GSN\u2019s Divided<\/em> and The Pyramid<\/em> and along with Jeopardy!<\/em> has executive produced on shows such as The Price Is Right<\/em>, Who Wants to Be a Millionaire<\/em>?<\/em>, and Wheel of Fortune <\/em>among others.<\/p>\n
