I must admit I couldn’t take it seriously after watching SNL’s celebrity jeopardy and black jeopardy parodies. The bit where they have to write on the screen I was fully expecting someone to draw nonsenseOh I don't think rylan would have worked, it's not a humour show. In the US its more of an intellectual one rather than a jokey fun one. But yeah there needs to be some lightness too. Richard Osman maybe (if he wasn't already busy). Maybe Rick Edwards
Sounds like people just don't like the format. It isn't a silly quiz like deal or no deal. I think the afternoon slot is wrong for it. Its more an evening one like some of the other more serious quiz shows.“Unwatchable” says Daily Star article…. must be true if the star says it
Jeopardy! viewers convinced show will be axed as they fume it's 'unwatchable'
ITV's rebooted quiz show Jeopardy! - hosted by Stephen Fry - has been slated by many disappointed ITV viewers with many complaining about the questions and formatwww.dailystar.co.uk
It gets the braincells rattling- I like something that gets me thinking- Stephen Fry is definitely the weak link- I saw a bit of the programme before it- “Riddiculous” … the riddlemaster from that might be a good host- not on everything - not sure who he is- Henry?Sounds like people just don't like the format.

Yeah it feels more like mastermind/University challenge than deal or no deal.It gets the braincells rattling- I like something that gets me thinking- Stephen Fry is definitely the weak link- I saw a bit of the programme before it- “Riddiculous” … the riddlemaster from that might be a good host- not on everything - not sure who he is- Henry?
To be fair I think during Keshava's run he often looked a bit irritated that Stephen was rattling off facts about the previous question rather than letting him pick the next one, I suspect the producers have decided to pad their runtime out to an hour they want to embrace that but it does interfere with the momentum a bit.Keshava is such a clever guy. I hope he ends up winning his total.
I often forget the category, I wish they would put it on screen next to the clue. The US version is 22-26 minutes whereas ours is like 50 without the ad breaks and that’s with the same amount of questions. I don’t think us brits could handle the pace of the US version
