It’s been two week since Jeopardy! guest host Ken Jennings stepped into the late Alex Trebek‘s enormous hosting shoes. The G.O.A.T. champion — the first of the game show’s temporary hosts, who include Katie Couric, Aaron Rodgers, Bill Whitaker, and Mayim Bialik — has been getting comfortable in the new position, and has even been fine-tuning his host-contestant banter.
In one of the show’s most recent episodes, contestant Brian Chang poked some fun at Jennings with his final Jeopardy answer of “H&R Block.” Jennings famously ended his 74-day winning streak after a competitor defeated him with that answer.

Just like his predecessor, Jennings had a quick response to the obvious jab: “Now Brian, I know from experience. H&R Block is sometimes the right answer…but not today.” But does this prove he’s up to the task full-time?
How do you think Jennings is doing as guest host? Let us know in the poll below.
