Mayim is doing a nice job.  She's pleasant yet professional and understands the show isn't about her.  I also like that it's easy to imagine she knows the answers already; Alex was like that too.


Ha! I agreed with you so much that I had to look to see if I wrote itSmiley Happy I am totally, finally, enjoying Jeopardy again.

I think Mayim has "upped" her look since her previous appearances.  I thought she looked fine before but this week her wardrobe and makeup looked terrific.  I also love the color of her eyeglass frame paired with her skin tone and makeup. 

I didn't tune in this week to watch her, but rather to see Matt continue his run.  Tonight was closer than it has been in a while.


Yes, I thought that young man might overtake Matt.  Matt seemed a little tired tonight but he seemed to pull it together and get stronger as the game went on.  I hope he makes it to 1 Million, he's almost there.  Maybe tonight?  (if he wins big)  I think he needs about $50,000 more to make it.

 

I understand completely how people either like this or detest this way of game play.  I couldn't stand James and felt the same way.  Then one poster wrote that James' smile reminded her of her dog and he became more endearing to me after that.  Woman Wink

I think Mayim is doing a fine job and I think she'll do even better once she finds her groove, and part of that will come with knowing the gig is hers.  (Whenever they finally make a decision.)  I think they need to have ONE host, and that's it.  The decision about having a second host for "specials" was stupid, IMO.

I noticed the changes in her appearance also, and I agree.

Last night found Mayim slipping back into teacher mode. She treats the contestants like students with encouraging comments that are condescending. If she becomes the permanent host, I will be giving Jeopardy a miss.

I've only seen 3 episodes with her this go round. I think she is OK but think she did much better during the 2 weeks she did over the summer.  Not sure what the difference is but she just doesn't seem as loose and comfortable in the host role.
