Viewers didn't have too many complaints about Whitaker's time on Jeopardy!. But, when it comes to choosing someone to fill in for Trebek full-time, they're not here for the journalist being the permanent host.
This viewer didn't mince words as they said that Whitaker was "boring" on Jeopardy!. They even said that they're eager to watch an old episode with Trebek as the host for some of that old-school Jeopardy! magic.
Yet another viewer was happy to see Whitaker's hosting stint come to an end. It's safe to say that they're not keen on him hosting the show full-time.
Whitaker doesn't have this viewer's vote for full-time host. They said that he was just a "fine" host.
This viewer also doesn't believe that Whitaker would be a good fit in the long term. They mentioned that he's been a "bit too serious," especially when it comes to speaking with the contestants.
While many believe that Whitaker shouldn't be made the full-time host, there are some who are backing him. One fan even called him the "perfect host."
In fact, there were others who agreed that Whitaker would make a great permanent host of Jeopardy!. Another viewer weighed in to write that they would love to have the 60 Minutes personality as the host even over their other favorite choices, including Ken Jennings.
