DANGER! fans have berated host Mayim Bialik for being “irritating” while constantly “pronouncing a mundane word wrong”.
Mayim, 46, previously told the audience it was “time to put our number on.”
The danger! presenter asked a question to the participants from the category of singers from the 60s.
One of the contestants assumed it was Little Richard, who had a statue of himself “overlooking the water”, which was a “nod to a posthumous number one hit”, but it was incorrect.
The correct answer turned out to be the legendary Otis Redding.
Mayim explained that the nod referred to his hit song, Sittin’ on the Dock of the Bay.
THE COMMENTS
Danger! fans were “annoyed” by the way the ABC star pronounced the word “singer” and have criticized her way of speaking.
A troll said, “Hey Mayim Bialik, the ‘g’ in singer is not a hard g.”
Another troll added: “I won’t go into any other mispronounced words because there is one word that gets punched by you every day, Mayim Bialik.”
A third troll said, “Really Mayim, still don’t know how to pronounce singer? Here, let me help you. It’s “sing” plus “er.” NOT “sing” plus “ger”.
A fourth person wrote: “If Mayim Bialik is such a huge brain teaser, why can’t she pronounce ‘singer’ correctly?”
One commenter chimed in: “Love Mayim Bialik hosting Jeopardy! What I don’t like is a hard g on the word singer. That’s all.”
BAD SOUND?
Fans have noticed something recently “foreign” with the voice of the TV star in the show during the final episodes.
Viewers have noted that the Big Bang Theory’s alum seemed “echoey” and “mechanical” as they spoke as if the sound wasn’t of the best quality.
One fan wrote: “I’ve noticed the audio really doesn’t seem right lately. I’m not an audio engineer so I can’t really describe it, but it sounds like some levels aren’t right.”
Another fan added, “This is the third or fourth comment I’ve seen from other people so I’m convinced there’s something weird going on with the audio.”
A third fan offered a possible explanation, claiming, “Someone here pointed out that they still don’t have a personal audience and the applause is all canned.”
PERMANENT HOST?
Fan outrage came when the Blossom actress and co-host Ken Jennings48, have been on the permanent hosting gig for months.
A new host for the quiz show is expected to be chosen between them.
The permanent hosting slot has remained undecided until Season 38 nears its finale on July 31, 2022.
Internet sleuths claimed they had seen him “lots of clues” that indicates that Ken is taking over from the late Alex Trebek.
