Jennings Fans
Obviously since Jennings got this conversation started, many of the top responses were from fans of his. Some even said they would not be watching the show while Jennings is on hiatus.
Picking Sides
Many fans are of the opinion that Jeopardy! has narrowed down its choices to either Bialik or Jennings, and they were not shy about sharing their preferences in the comments under Jennings' tweet.
Decisive
Others called on the show itself to settle down and select a permanent host already – whoever it may be.
Whiplash
Fans complained that the constant switching of hosts is a distraction from the game and everything they like about the show.
Trebek
Considering Jennings' friendship with the late Alex Trebek, many fans argued that he is the more appropriate pick for a permanent Jeopardy! host.
Mattea Roach
Many of Jennings' fans reposted his endorsement from recent champion Mattea Roach. They felt that her opinion should count for a lot in this regard.
Holdouts
Finally, there are some fans still staunchly holding out for a different host they prefer, including some of the stars who were guest hosts last year and some who have never appeared on the game show at all. For now, Jeopardy! has not given any hint about which way they will go on this issue.
