We want LeVar Burton to host Jeopardy for the same reason we venerate Bob Ross and Mr. Rogers, and the same reason the show Ted Lasso is so popular. Our culture yearns for, and desperately needs, men who are kind and gentle, and who will teach that by example.

Hey! @priyankachopra should be Jennifer Walters (aka She-Hulk.) As @DanSlott said, cast for the She and let SFX worry about the Hulk.

To be clear, I’m looking forward to seeing the movie and I hope you will all see it, too. Success for the film is also a success for the author. My objection is to the constant promotion of the screenwriters without mentioning the author…
