In good hands

Fort Lee: I have to disagree with Voicer Carl Hafner on this one. There will never be another Alex Trebek. The logic of having guest hosts was to give the producers time to figure out who would be best to replace him. Replacing him with Mike Richards is logical, not nepotism. People practice nepotism, TV networks don’t. Richards is an experience­d game show host. Many TV shows are co-produced by their stars (“Jimmy Kimmel Live,” for example). In fact, Alex co-produced “Jeopardy!” at one time. We were given the chance to vote and I voted for Mayim Bialik. But she is an actress as well and has had a pretty busy career in science and acting, so it is logical that she will host special shows. I look forward to watching both of these hosts for many years to come. As a trivia buff, I can’t wait.
