Pop Culture Jeopardy! fans praise Colin Jost for better ‘sense of humor’ and ‘star power’ than Ken Jennings on premiere

Pop Culture Jeopardy! debuted on Wednesday, and COLIN Jost has received plaudits for his hosting prowess.

In the first episode of Shiny New Set, which aired on Amazon Prime on December 4, Colin looked cool, collected, and collected as he took the stage.

He instantly made the studio audience laugh with one of his trademark jokes.

At last, a Jeopardy-style game! For those who become agitated during ordinary Jeopardy! “Players overlook hints about reality TV and rappers,” he stated prior to the game starting.

Colin went on to introduce hilarious categories like That’s Not My Name, Sad Girl Summer, and even Johnny Gilbert: Film Thespian, the longstanding Jeopardy! announcer.

Johnny entertained the audience with his dramatic reading of movie phrases in the category’s clues.

LOVIN’ COLIN

Longtime Jeopardy! viewers gave the host’s performance high marks right away.

“Colin Jost is a really good host,” a Jeopardy! Reddit fan commented on a fan page. “To be honest, I’m having a great time with him.

Ken is also excellent, in my opinion, but Colin is more telegenic and hilarious.

“Obviously, he has more star power than Ken too.”

“Colin’s quick wit and off-the-cuff remarks fit right in without getting in the way of the gameplay,” someone another said.

“I feel like Colin was very polished for a newbie, and definitely funnier than Ken,” observed another.

JEOPARDY! GOLDEN BOY

Executives at Jeopardy! were overjoyed to choose Colin Ona as the host of the Pop Culture spinoff, as previously reported by The U.S. Sun.

Getting Colin to join Jeopardy! was a huge coup for Sony TV, according to one insider.

Additionally, Colin has more live TV experience than practically any Jeopardy contestant!

“He can make things work in the moment that Ken can t, and nobody is in denial about that.”

Colin might potentially host Celebrity Jeopardy in the future, according to the source! rather than Ken.

“Colin can interact with celebrity contestants with confidence because they see him as a peer,” said the insider.

“Unfortunately, that s never going to be the case with Ken.”

TOUGH CLUES

Jeopardy! At first, many were concerned that the show would be “dumbed down” from the sophisticated original, with simple and even offensive hints.

Viewers, however, appeared to concur that the hints were anything but straightforward.

“Surprisingly not too much of a walk in the park with some questions,” wrote one Reddit user. “Yet all very on par with pop culture, new and old.”

Surprisingly, the show wasn’t easy. Another person commented, “I didn’t even run the cartoon category.”
