I think it's good that he was there, but also good that he's finally been dethroned. I will miss him a lot though, and possibly his absence will make me not want to watch as much. It's not just his total domination, but he is obviously a genuine and kind dude... You never knew what he'd say, and he and Alex really seemed to have fun together. One thing I can say, Ken was good for Jeopardy, and I bet Jeopardy's ratings will show that he brings viewers in when Ken finally gets to compete in the tournament of champions...we'll have to wait for the 2005-2006 season though, since he lasted through to the 2004-2005 season and you're not eligible to compete during the same year.
