Awkward
"The Mike Richards Jeopardy episodes are so awkward. Can't wait until they're over," wrote another Twitter user.
prevnextIn watching these final episodes, I literally don't understand how anyone could have thought even a saintly version of Mike Richards deserved to be Jeopardy host. Guy sucks.
Mayim, Buzzy, Ken, Joe, David, and Aaron all absolutely smoked him during their guest hosting stints.

Lacking Accountability
"It's so weird to me that jeopardy has not said a single word about mike richards during the airing of his recordings this week lol," tweeted journalist Chelsea Cirruzzo.
prevnextWatching #Jeopardy this week, the only thing saving me from all the awkward is the fun of speculating if Matt Amodio will outlast Mike Richards.
