In my opinion, Steve Harvey is basically a segregationist and a race war baiter. He should
replaced with the world ultimate anti-segregationist: Kanye West. Kanye is a man who's
definitely in favor of interracial relations. Love it or hate him--you have to acknowledge he's
done a lot to bring the races together. I mean, he's married to an Armenian woman named Kim
Kardashian, he's made rap songs with a Jewish guy named Drake, and he's been abducted by
aliens from a wide variety of galaxies.
What fascinates me most about game show hosts is the fact that Family Feud, Jeopardy, and
Wheel of Fortune are hosted by three men who have absolutely nothing in common. Think
about it. Those are three jobs with completely different job requirements. If you want to host
Jeopardy, you need to sound very educated; if you want to host Wheel of Fortune, you need to
sound like an ordinary guy; and if you want to host Family Feud, you need to sound like you've
been sniffing glue every day for the last ten years. Family Feud is very strict about that rule.
Richard Dawson, Al Borland, Steve Harvey--they meet that qualification 100%.
You know what's really interesting about game show hosts? They never have a first name with
more than two syllables. They're always something like Steve, Pat, Skip, Stu, or Chuck. The
longest names among them are Richard and Alex. Two syllables. That's the legal limit. Anything
more won't sound right. You hear a name like that, and you'll become completely
discombobulated. Imagine you're watching Jeopardy, and some contestant addresses a host who
has a four syllable name. As in, "I'll take Tuna Fish History for 1600, Moctezuma." Yeah.
Moctezuma doesn't sound very game show hosty. The name Moctezuma is a better fit for an
Apple Store genius, or the emperor of an ancient empire.
By the way, what's with this Alex Trebek guy? He has a bad attitude. Any time a contestant gets
something wrong, Alex really starts acting condescending towards the person. He doesn't just
correct the contestant. He unloads on him. He says, "Let me tell you something, Ken. The French
King who invented French fries was not Louis the Eleventh, you moron. He was Charles the
Seventh. You got the name and number wrong. If you were properly educated the way I am, you
would know that Louis the Eleventh invented French toast--not French fries."
