Mike Richards Has Stepped Down From His Brand New Gig As The Host Of “Jeopardy!”

August 20, 2021 / Posted by:

Mayim Bialik better quit her actual day job because Jeopardy! needs a new full-time host. Jeopardy! executive producer Mike Richards and Mayim Bialick were just announced as the new hosts of the game show, replacing international treasure Alex Trebek. Mike was going to be the daily host of the syndicated show while Blossom hosts primetime specials and spin-off shows. But then a shit ton of bad press hit Mike Richards. Mike was accused of sexism and discrimination while he was a producer on The Price is Right. Then earlier this week, The Ringer brought out a bunch of bigoted, sexist, and racist comments Mike made on his podcast The Randumb Show in 2013 and 2014. Mike apologized for those comments, but I guess it wasn’t enough. Because he’s now out of a job. Mike announced to his staff that he will no longer host Jeopardy!. So they trotted out a parade of guests hosts (when they probably already made the decision to hire Mike Richards) and this happens!?! Bring out ThePriceisRightlosinghorn.

“Jeopardy!” Host Mike Richards Is Apologizing For Stuff He Said On His Old Podcast

August 19, 2021 / Posted by:

Jeopardy! executive producer Mike Richards was crowned one of two new hosts of Jeopardy! only a week ago, and it’s starting to look like the rest of Mike’s co-workers at Jeopardy! probably should have called at least one of his references before they decided to promote Mike to a higher pay grade. Because it didn’t take long for people to unearth stuff from his past that Mike and the rest of Sony Pictures Television probably would have rather kept buried. Several discrimination lawsuits were found from Mike’s time as a producer on The Price is Right that painted him as a rude sexist asshole. He was able to sweep those under the rug with a statement and a strong denial that those lawsuits accurately reflect who he is as a person. Well, Mike used to host a podcast back in the day, and the internet just discovered that too. And look who is being forced to apologize once again for sounding like a rude sexist asshole. But this time, there’s also a little splash of racism in there as well.

Mike Richards And Mayim Bialik Are Officially The New Hosts Of “Jeopardy!”

August 11, 2021 / Posted by:

The correct question to the answer “these two people were just announced as the permanent hosts of the beloved television quiz show Jeopardy!” is “Who are HIM?! and HER?!As predicted, Jeopardy! executive producer Mike Richards has been named as Alex Trebek’s replacement, and fellow guest host Mayim Bialik will be hosting all of Jeopardy!’s primetime and spinoff series. Fan favorite LeVar Burton goes home with a lovely parting gift — walking away as a beloved icon with his dignity intact. Nobody could really replace Alex and you can’t get hit with rotten tomatoes if you exit stage left. And with this decision, people are already coming at Mike and Mayim and letting the fetid fruit fly!

Mike Richards Is Reportedly The Frontrunner To Permanently Host “Jeopardy!”

August 5, 2021 / Posted by:

Huh, that’s a weird way of spelling “LeVar Burton.” No, wait, that name provided is correct. At least according to multiple sources who spoke with Variety. They claim that the producers of Jeopardy! believe they have finally found the late Alex Trebek’s replacement as the host of Jeopardy!. And apparently, they’re going with someone who already knows their way around the office kitchen and doesn’t need to be taught the internal desk phone system: Jeopardy! executive producer Mike Richards. But well, they may have made that decision before hearing about the workplace harassment allegations against him…
