Hi everyone, Levar’s performance has blown up recently so I guess I’ll drop this here. There has been a lot of controversy and arguably toxicity over the guest hosts, and I don’t think Alex would be happy about that. If there is a guest host you don’t like, that’s okay, you can watch the show for contestants like Matt. Also any toxic comments towards anyone here about their opinions will be removed, as this should be a safe space for people to chat. Thank you for understanding, and let’s hope Matt pulls through for next season. Edit: He made it folks, can’t wait for next season already
Thank you for monitoring the chats!
Thanks for the censorship! You are part of the problem! You don't get it. Grow a pair if you can't deal with opinions that differ from yours snowflake. Idiot.
And if you're going to report me...make it for something good. Go fuck yourself.
There would be no controversy if they had just had Ken Jennings from the start and avoided this sh*t show of rotating hosts.
Imagine if the first two categories were "Take A Look" and "It's In A Book"
I would’ve loved that
It can happen!
Lol 😆 -Jesus loves all and wants to save all. Romans 10:9-10 ✌️
That would have be SO AWESOME!
Followed by Space and The Final Frontier
Who doesn’t like him for Jeopardy? He’s literally perfect! He has that smooth voice that we all grew up on and love, and he’s great at reading the clues! RIP AlexTrebek and I think he would vote for Levar.
He has no wit and meager amounts of charisma.
@@keenkingjames You're full of crap. Levar has mountains of charisma and he really carried the spirit of Trebek in this clip. Maybe you're just having a problem with his great tan?
@@silversurfer4441 didn’t notice his tan. He’s kind of dimwitted and slow compared to Trebek. Awkward and lacking confidence.
@@silversurfer4441 lol did you just accuse him of racism for accurately pointing out Levar Burton is a boring dimwit?
@@silversurfer4441 White Apologist
Literally never been impressed by celebrities...just don't have the awe for them like some folks do (nothing against the ones who do). That being said the only celebrity autograph I ever wanted and ever got and got to say thank you to the person for their work....that person was Lavar Burton. Reading kept my childhood light in some dark moments throughout it....The Reading Rainbow helped me find my love for it. Good luck to the children that will miss out on quality programming like that and a host with the love that he has for it.
Reading Rainbow is one of my favorite shows of all time.
Roots, Reading Rainbow, and ST: TNG makes him a true legend of American television!
Outstanding! I got his autograph too. Megacon Orlando. Seemed genuine both on TV and real life. Hope they make him Jeopardy host again.
@@Kryptoknight321 NY comic con for me I mean what a great dude and I'm serious I could care less about celebrities being around the guy is being around calm.
This man sparked my love for reading. Go LeVar!
I didn’t think anyone could fit jeopardy after Alex Trebek but man does Levar fit perfectly
I agree 100 percent! He’s calm, confident energetic and light-hearted like Alex. He’s the best one hands down.
It makes too much sense
@@KazKcatta 3 weeks later and Mike Richards has stepped down and Mayim is likely next…just give us Levar or the two persons that Alex said he’d like to see succeed him. How disrespectful not to even consider HIS choices. The producers should be ashamed.
@@DeVonMArtis it’s all about back slapping and rich friends pulling strings.
Better than Katie Couric and Dr Oz, but not nearly as good as Ken Jennings, Robin Roberts, or Mayim Bialik.
Levar was a great guest host.. and you don't have to take my word for it.
I disagree. His demeanor is too serious. His voice isn't strong, due to age. I'm not putting him down as a person. I just don't see this as a good role for him. I could see him playing a detective on a police show.
I like what you did there....a little Reading Rainbow reference. 🥰
lol
He was the worst and that makes me sad.
@@binka21 What?! Do you not remember Reading Rainbow? His character Geordi LaForge? Maybe he was little overly excited, but if given the job I think he would have grown into beautifully.
He was a tad nervous at first, but he's definitely the right fit.
I totally disagree. His voice isn't strong, on the quieter side. He seemed too serious, I think just his natural demeanor. I see him more of playing a drama film or tv role.
I agree
@@binka21 alex trebek was way to serious
@@binka21 Alex was waay more serious
@@kaybee5846 Alex looked rather neutral to me.
Levar Burton is right behind Mr. Rogers for me as a childhood "friend" that made learning interesting. To bad he is the wrong color for some people to appreciate him! He should have been the Jeoparty host.
I totally agree with you. He should have been the host.
He could be, hopefully the execs don't mess up again by choosing someone no one wanted.
He was not a good host. I dont care what color he is. He made stupid comments when people got questions right...as if he were an elementary school teacher. It was weird and out of place.
@@MP-ie4je I think you're weird and out of place. I'd bet Trebek would agree.
@@MP-ie4je what show were you watching??? I didn’t see that at all.
He said his wife didn't grade him favorably the first episode, he loosens up and improves (he says) so it will be fun to watch this unfold the rest of the week.
I think he’s perfect for the show . He has a great reputation.
Are you kidding. He seems so natural here. No wonder everyone wants him him to host. He fits perfectly.
He's fricking perfect for this job. Give the guy another chance. Airing him during the Tokyo Olympics was really a rotten thing to do.
Would've loved to have heard him say, "I'll see you next time."
Levar is a legend! Complete legend! Reading Rainbow, Start Trek, and just the way he carries himself. I can think of no other person more appropriate to host this show. Please chose this man. Thank you in advance.
He just killed it on his opening line! The search for a host is over…
Yes, he totally killed it. Levar's caliber is top-notch!
I don’t think Levar as a mean bone is his entire body. I bet he’s lived his entire life without an argument or fistfight. Lol Cool dude. He’s so natural there.
All I could think of was singing the READING RAINBOW theme song over and over….,.
Levar is a perfect fit for this.
Damn these questions are getting easier or I’m getting smarter.
He seemed nervous and self conscious.
Yes, and if I could say it kindly, he came across as melodramatic.
Well it was his first outing. I'm sure even Alex Trebeck took time to find his poise as host of Jeopardy.
With the new guy out it's got to be Levar. 👍
He dont even want it anymore and I dont blame him. Some things are too perfect, him replacing Alex smoothly was one of them!
He was the guy for the job. Perfect fit.
I think it's tremendous. It should be him or Ken Jennings.
Some will be quite upset that it will be neither.
Ken jennings is boring
Ken Jennings is a milquetoast and was an awful host; boring would be a compliment. Brad Rutter at his peak would have been phenomenal. I was really impressed with Mike. This is the only snippet I've seen of Levar Burton and he's very personable.
Asking Ken Jennings to be host is like wanting Tom Brady to be a sports anchorman lol
@@TenorMan96 But Jennings did a great job. Now that Mike Richards stepped down, Mayim is probably the host. So its either a Hollywood person or a producer of the show.
Fact: Levar Burton was previously the winner of 1995 Celebrity Jeopardy while competing with The Young and the Restless actress Melody Thomas Scott and the retired speed skater Dan Jansen
Give him the job!
Great man was rooting on him ..My kids grown but aware of reading rainbow great show long run ..and his charity no Child Left Behind great. Man .....Ps big Star Trek fan
Known him since the Emmy Winning PBS show “📖🌈”! I cannot believe he is now guest host of “Jeopardy!”
I have to say that I came here for the humorous comments on how bad this video was. I couldn't stop laughing when it said "the missing footage." But it was great seeing Levar.
Bring back Levar Burton!!
Without seeing the video, my vote goes to Levar Burton all the way. After seeing this, my vote still goes to Levar but he needs to relax and stop trying to be "A Jeopardy Host" and just be himself. First day jitters I guess, but he will be epic when he finds his stride.
He is clearly the man for the job.
Yay! It's Geordi La Forge!
Its Kunta Kinta!
He is perfect for this position.
LeVar was amazing!
…well,Mr. Burton didn’t get picked to be the permanent host,but I’m happy to report that LeVar is the host/executive producer of the CW’s,new game show,”Trivia Pursuit”,…❤️👍👍
😆 It so satisfying hearing Levar Burton saying Black Holes 🕳 1:50
Beautiful, Mr. Levar!! So proud of you.
I missed it yesterday where can I watch the episode?
I’m trynna watch it too Don’t know where it’s at
His first episode is here on KZhead. It was posted yesterday.
And now, he is going to host and produce “Trivial Pursuit” which is the game show which was first hosted by Wink Martindale in the 1990’s.
FANTASTIC CHOICE!!! I HOPE HES MADE THE PERMANENT HOST!!!
He won't be hosting Jeopardy. He will however be hosting Trivial Pursuit and be an executive producer on the show
Good for him
i hope levar will be the permanent jeopardy host!
Love Lebar!
I mean, Tom Bergeron, Bob Saget, use your brains folks lol
He was on the tv like pbs kids of reading rainbow. And now I never see the first time in jeopardy game show. 📺📚🌈👦🏾👧🏼🏫🏠
Patrick was banished in disgrace.
"What is Stephen Hawking?" That's just mean.
Give the guy a break he didn't mean to say what. I can tell once he gets the hang of jeopardy and in a comfortable zone, he will be fine. He's human so he is entitled to screw up
Her reaction too lmao
Whats mean is telling children they evolved from rocks after nothing made nothing explode billions of years ago. LOL... Levar Burton is also one of Hawkings fellow cult members of the evolution religion, always hanging around babbling idiots like Bill Nye and Neil Degrasse Tyson. It's no wonder society has turned into a den of perverts that act like animals, These haters of God convinced them, with pseudo-science and not a single shred of valid evidence, that humans are just more evolved apes. Bwahahaha Well, God warned us thousands of years ago about this huge falling out from truth before the end times and full blown Hell on Earth.. Romans 1 21: Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. 22: Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, 23: And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. 1 Timothy 6:20 "O Timothy, keep that which is committed to thy trust, avoiding profane and vain babblings, and oppositions of science falsely so called"
@@ModalGroove Lol!
@@ModalGroove wrong. Crom threw humanity together with leftover clay and then gifted us the will to strive and slay. And really, that's all we can really ask of the gods.
He was a co-star of Star Trek: The Next Generation.
One of my choices
All hail.
Levar is totally a class act!! Incredible!
I’ve worked on a black holes myself. Lol they are the loveliest
Have you seen the *AcapellaScience* parody music videos about, among other things, black holes?
Great! Larvar or Ken...or both!
That was an insanely easy question
Star trek and reading rainbow
I actually liked the guest host run
LeVar did an amazing job...He should het the job..
I went to elementary school with Matt's brother Dan!
Why did he not get the job? He is the class we are missing. Perhaps the producers stupidly believed updating from classy to childish and woke was a good idea.
He was nervous. Who isn't nervous when they are on a job interview? And to be a little star struck at the time for your dream job? Come on people.
The guy would be a great permanent host
Levar Burton supposed to be the host of Jeopardy After Alex Trebek.
The GOAT. I love reading rainbow! Why isn’t he the host??
Put Levar Burton on TV again dammit!
I like him so far yes bring on another old man please thank you
He didn’t want to host jeopardy at all
He is so natural. . . .why wasn't he the permanent host.
Levar Burton is one of my all time favorite TV personalities and actors. All the way back to Reading Rainbow and Star Trek… pretty much my whole life.
His hands are very small. I can't unsee it
@ Chris Webb. Levar is a small guy overall. The podiums on stage dwarfed him. No stage presence at all. May be good behind the camera directly but not on stage.
I vote for this guy ;)
What happened to Will Farrell?
It's kind of ironic that Levar said "what is Steven Hawking" but Matt actually wrote down "who. is Steven Hawking?" Lol.
I think it’s because Matt says What’s instead of who when he rings in. He is smart to do that because he says What’s and he thinks of the answer it gives him more time to think of the answer.
did he get the job yet?
Patrick Pearce set the lowest score on levar burtons first day guest hosting
He licks his lips every 5 seconds.
Perfect choice for a permanent host. He literally looks like a black alex trebek.
I love the guy but everyone is pretending he did not say "what is Stephen.....
If levar wants time off he can pay brent spiner a few $$$😁
Levar Burton was the most qualified. Unfortunately his skin wasn't pale enough.
I got the feeling he was speaking to kids. And for the ladies answer it was who is Stephen hawking and he said what is Stephen hawking
LeVar Burton is a great host on Jeopardy plus that is very disappointing and shocking of how Patrick got a big bad score of -$7,400
I wish LaVar & Ken shared hosting instead of Mayim
I don’t understand why he ultimately decided not to host. I wanted it to be him so bad.
Umm I dont get it.... Levar totally killed it in his opening! Hes perfect.
Yes me
Yes Levar fits absolutely perfectly. I hope when the dust settles, it will be Levar?
People that said he wasn't great dont know what they are talking about
No visor.
I didn’t see this comment coming!
They need to bring him as the host he is perfect it's the reading rainbow guy who doesnt like him?
I certainly hope they reconsider Levar for the permanent gig. He is a natural at this.
La forge
Great episode I actually watched too. Lavar Burton is one of those great voices!
I was so excited when he came on, but he just didn't have the excitement factor I would expect him to bring l' m sorry but in my opinion Mike Richards is the best choice.
He's out, and so are you! HahahA!
Why put a Ha Ha into a discussion, are you a little boy ?
Well this aged well
You're out, Norman..
Levar just didn't smile- Mayim smiles a lot and brings a lot of energy to the game, which Levar did not do. Maybe age is a factor. When younger he seemed to smile a lot more and he had a lot more energy. Mayim is the best so far and they're keeping it open but who will beat her? Ken Jennings has less energy and enthusiasm and charm. I think Mayim will keep it, maybe with some occasional guest hosts, who knows.
Mike Richards was PERFECT.
No he wasn't.
He deserved to be fired, no he definitely wasn’t perfect he was mean to people on the show and on the internet he should have realized if you type something bad on the internet, it never goes away. He deserved it
Seemed a bit nervous but I thought he brought a certain thoughtfulness and heart to the hosting which with all due to respect to Trebek was sort of lacking in the show. But maybe thats the issue is that this show is sort of stiff and academic. Also can’t under qualify the likely racist undertones of people’s criticism. All that being said, people are entitled to their opinions even their toxic ones. It would be great to see Lavar back on television again in any capacity.
What happened to the second contestant??
They ended the game with negative money so they didn’t make it to Final Jeopardy, there’s a whole screen about it in the video
"What is Stephen Hawking?" ....annnddd he's lost the job :(
Engage
He is not the person that should be host of Jeopardy. It belongs to someone that Alex wanted in his place, NOT someone who wants to take his place. La Var, go find something else to do. You do not belong as Jeopardy's host.
