Re: Jeopardy with Mayim Bialik

In the New York area, Jeopardy was preempted on Tuesday night due to a political debate.  We have been a day behind all week and will see Friday's show tonight - Saturday.

I didn't have any expectations one way or the other.  The only thing that she has been that I have seen is The Big Bang Theory and I didn't see that many episodes.  So, I didn't know much about her.  

 

Boy , was I impressed.  I just saw her today but she nailed it.  Of all the ones who have been a guest host so far, I think she would be perfect.

 

I don't have one complaint.  I thought everything she did and didn't do was spot on.  

 

In fact, she reminded me most of Alex.  Calm, professional, appropriate funny comments without being a comedian, perfect pacing, pronunciation etc.  I will be watching the rest of her appearances.  

 

Oh, one more thing, does anyone know if she is actually interested in doing this on a permanent basis?  Or is she one that is doing it for fun and that is it?   I haven't heard.


YES, YES,YES,YES-Hire her, PLEASE!

Re: Jeopardy with Mayim Bialik

It will be nice to have her this week too.

 

Always tentative when a new guest host starts. I like the game, but if the host is not someone I am enjoying, then I have skipped those games. Smiley Sad

Mayim is still doing a great job. But I still think she is badly in need of a stylist...and a hair brush (I hate when hair is messy).

 

 @dulwich  Two categories you would have liked tonight: U.K. Television  and Heir Guitar (heirs of guitarists).   @Witchy Woman 

in the latter category they showed a photo of Sir Paul ❤  playing onstage with Dhani and the question was: Paul McCartney said when playing with Dhani it's like this person has never aged and we all did."  [Answer of course was who is George Harrison?]

I loved Paul's ststement.

Re: Jeopardy with Mayim Bialik

@Pearlee - I agree about Mayim needing a stylist.  In her bio on IMDB she stated she decided to dress as a Jewish woman (don't remember if she said Orthodox) and not wear pants, only skirts below knee length.  Maybe she has been advised to dress differently due to her career.

@twinsister  Hmmm. That doesn't explain the disheveled hair. Also, as I posted above, I'm Jewish and have Orthodox friends and relatives. They follow the religious rules for dressing but most are still quite stylish. IMO Mayim looked very frumpy tonight.

@Pearlee - Yes - her hair was messy looking tonight.  She has looked frumpy to me on a few nights. I agree that a woman can still look stylish and follow religious observations.  I was surprised to read her comments on IMDB.   Hope I did not insult you any way.

Re: Jeopardy with Mayim Bialik

I don't know about the rest of you, but I felt like tonight's program just FLEW by! It seemed to go at a super fast speed. And yes, same number of questions/answers as any other show. Can't believe how Mayim keeps up with her fast, yet very clear, talking.

 

I was out of breath by the end of it! LOL!
