BiographyMichael Richards (born July 5, 1975) is a former American television producer, game show host, and television personality. He was most notably the executive producer of the American television game shows Let's Make a Deal and The Price Is Right from 2009 to 2019, and of Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune from 2020 to 2021. Richards also hosted other television series including High School Reunion, Beauty and the Geek, Pyramid, and Divided, and was executive producer of Who Wants to Be a Millionaire in 2020.
In August 2021, Richards briefly succeeded Alex Trebek as host of the daily syndicated version of Jeopardy! after Trebek's death in 2020. However, Richards resigned as host later that month due to criticism over offensive comments that he made on The Randumb Show podcast, as well as wrongful termination and sexual harassment lawsuits from models during his time as the executive producer of The Price Is Right. Richards hosted only a week's worth of episodes, which aired in September 2021 as part of the show's 38th season.
On May 20, 2025, it was announced that Richards would join The Daily Wire and would become president of Daily Wire entertainment and would also become its chief content officer (CCO). This comes following the exit of former president Jeremy Boreing in March 2025.
