“#Will You Still Tune in for ‘Jeopardy!’s Mike Richards Episodes? (POLL)<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

Jeopardy!<\/em> has had its fair share of ups and downs over the past few months following the death of its longtime host, the late great Alex Trebek.<\/p>\n

The biggest hurdle right now is getting through the first week of Season 38, which features former executive producer and short-lived permanent host Mike Richards. Before he departed the show following scandals related to past comments and actions, Richards had taped a full week of episodes, but considering the game<\/a>play, re-taping the installments wasn\u2019t really an option.<\/p>\n

Plus, with record-setting champ Matt Amodio returning to pick up his winning streak, cutting progress for the sake of keeping Richards off air would be a disservice to the players and game. So, fans are being given the choice to tune in or hold out until the show picks up with guest hosts, like returning star Mayim Bialik, who will step in temporarily for the syndicated program and continue to hold her gig as Jeopardy!<\/em>\u2018s primetime host.<\/p>\n

There were certainly mixed reactions following the Season 38 premiere as fans weighed in on the predicament. Some noted how awkward it was to watch knowing that Richards\u2019 imminent exit looms.<\/p>\n

They have edited Mike Richards out in all the in between scenes on #jeopardy<\/a>. Only shown when absolutely needed. I\u2019m laughing so hard.<\/p>\n

Some were confused about the concept of pre-taped episodes, believing that Richards\u2019 departure from Jeopardy!<\/i> wasn\u2019t actually true.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s it! Mike Richards is the host??<\/p>\n

Others shared their distaste for Richards\u2019 onscreen presence by sharing plans to sit the week out or comment on his continued presence.<\/p>\n
