Burton will host “Jeopardy!” from Monday to Friday, followed by David Faber (Aug. 2-6) and Joe Buck (Aug. 9-13). Burton has become the front-runner for many “Jeopardy!” fans to take over the hosting position, with a Change.org petition now having garnered over 257,000 signatures. What do you think. Watch this week and make your final decision on Friday. He did say he was much more nervous than he ever imagined.
