Pop Culture Jeopardy! fans have some things to say about Colin Jost

Jeopardy! fans have not been a fan of the new installment’s host.

Pop Culture Jeopardy! made its Prime Video debut with three episodes on Wednesday, December 4. Many tune in every every Wednesday for new episodes to release. As many were excited for the new installment of the trivia show, others have been underwhelmed with host Colin Jost.

Colin is known for co-hosting Weekend Update on Saturday Night Live alongside Michael Che. The two have made headlines with their skits and so many believed he would bring that same energy to the Jeopardy! show. A user on Reddit asked for everyone’s “take” on the show and said: “I think Colin is a mediocre host and his humor doesn’t land half the time.”

Others weighed in, agreeing with the user who created the post. One person wrote: “I agree about Colin’s hosting. Sometimes, it feels like his jokes are at the contestants’ expense, and I don’t like that. My other hot take: I don’t want to hear anyone but Sam say ‘Bring it,’ and I don’t want to see anyone but James push all their chips in. I think it’s corny to repeat other players’ quirks.” Another person added: “i like colin jost but i think this is a job that was specifically made for joel mchale and im sad its not him.”

A third person wrote: “Agreed about Colin. I’m fine with the pace of Pop Culture J! being a little more relaxed than regular J! since it’s intended to be more fun and doesn’t have to meet the network time constraints. But Colin just talks and inputs commentary too too much imo to where it breaks up the flow of play and actually makes it less fun to watch. Really a bummer when a player is about to run a category but Colin interjects an overly long remark before the last clue and kills the momentum.”

The tournament-style game is broken up into four bracket-like rounds: knockouts, quarter finals, semi-finals, and final. The final three teams compete in the final round for a chance to win $300,000. A new gameplay element called Triple Play was introduced.
