Many Want LeVar Burton To Be The Next Host Of Jeopardy

“I CAN GO ANYPLACE! … TAKE A LOOK! IT’S IN A BOOK!…” It seems there are those out there that want someone not only new, but relatable to be the next host of Jeopardy. LeVar Burton has been gaining traction on the Internet as who most people want to host Jeopardy next. Mostly it comes from the fact that many grew up with him hosting Reading Rainbow back in the day and others it’s their love of his character on “Star Trek :The Next Generation”. However, most like Burton because he comes off as an everyday kind of guy that you could walk up to and say hello and he’d gladly greet you back with a smile. He just seems like a genuinely nice guy! LeVar has also been advocating for himself to have a shot at one of the biggest TV gigs in the world. I think he could also pull off the smoothness that the late Alex Trebek was so famous for even when someone failed miserably at answering a question. Burton is even getting Hollywood royalty to support his hiring with Dick Van Dyke recently advocating for him on Twitter. Make it so.
