The spirit of Jeopardy and the legacy of Trebek would be forever changed by using a host with charisma. Ken Jennings has the perfect "I stitch the day of the week into my underwear" vibe that essential for reminding people to phrase their responses as a question.

But both Trebek and Jennings do have charisma.

Trebek's rizz is nostalgia for the past, Jennings' is hope for the future.
