'Jeopardy!' Fans React to Robin Roberts's First Episode as Guest Host
Good Morning America fans have one more reason to flip on the TV at night: Robin Roberts is Jeopardy’s latest guest host and she’s already crushing it.
On Monday, the broadcast journalist made her Jeopardy! debut, taking the reins from fellow GMA coanchor George Stephanopoulos who stood at the lectern last week. Robin officially joined a roster of celebrities, TV personalities and Jeopardy! prodigies who’ve helped honor the late Alex Trebek on the beloved quiz show.
Before her first episode aired, Robin reflected on the experience of keeping Alex’s memory alive.
“Being a host, being behind that podium, knowing all the people, all the guest hosts that have been there, but more importantly, knowing that man who was behind that podium for all those years and to stand there, something I will not forget ever,” she said in an exclusive interview with the show.
