He could probably do it. I used to wonder if they brought the show back because of his parody of Greg Kihn Band.

No. Just no.
And if you want to see how bad he would be, find a way to watch Fox's new show "Let's Be Real".
Um, no. He would be fun but that's not what the show is supposed to be.
So you would agree to Gary Busey, but not Jim Carrey?
From what I know about Gary Busey, not him either.
What? Good lord just no.
So, you're saying the show isn't supposed to be fun?
Dignified fun. Jim Carrey wouldn't be.

LeVar Burton’s Quest to Succeed Alex Trebek (Published 2021)
