I love the show and watch it 6 days a week. I have learned so much watching it. But miss Alex like so many others.
I hope you aren't being pressured into who will replace him. Let the Jeopardy fans add their feelings on the replacement. Instead of the media pressuring who they want. On the show, ask what the fans feel about each temp host. Maybe a 1-10 response to a few short categories. That way you will get feedback from real Jeopardy fans.
Whatever you decide, will still be on my set to watch.
