We’ll take unforeseeable video game programs for 200, please.
Just when fans believed Jeopardy! had a prepare for the brand-new season, host Mike Richards revealed onAug 20 that he would be stepping down from part of his responsibilities after excusing previous sexist remarks made on a podcast. Despite the turn of occasions, he stays an executive manufacturer on the series.
“Over the last several days, it has become clear that moving forward as host would be too much of a distraction for our fans and not the right move for the show,” Mike stated in a declaration to E!News “As such, I will be stepping down as host effective immediately. As a result, we will be canceling production today.”
Now, as the look for another brand-new host starts, those near to the program are not sure about what might follow.
“Mike is resigning, but he’s still running the show, so it is a very uncomfortable day for everyone behind the scenes as they try to navigate conversations about who might be replacing their boss,” a source shown E!News “There was no contingency plan in place for something like this and no clear runner-up waiting in the wings.”
