LeVar Burton seems to have found the right game show

[hbquikcomjamesl]

For want of anything else worth watching on television this evening, I just saw well over an hour of the LeVar Burton version of Trivial Pursuit. I like it. Enough that I may yet try the board game. He may not have had the right stuff for hosting Jeopardy, but this, with a somewhat more relaxed pace (I suddenly find myself thinking of the old Bill Cullen game show, Three on a Match), suits him just fine, and he evidently had a hand in developing the format.

Good for Levar. I still think he would have been a good Jeopardy host but they didn't give him enough time to work out the kinks plus they never had any intention of hiring anyone who was auditioning at the time. Also He was nervous his first game probably from all the attention that was on him at the time.

But I'm glad he never got it. They really messed with people emotions and he was too good for that BS. Hope this works out for him.
