LeVar Burton thought he wanted to host 'Jeopardy!' -- until he did it.
"I made it public that I wanted it for myself, that it made sense to me, and [the fans] were all about it. It made as much as much sense to them as it did to me. And, so, they wanted it for me as much as I wanted it,” Burton explained."The crazy thing is that when you set your sights on something, you know, they say be careful of what you wish for, because what I found out is that it wasn’t the thing that I wanted after all.
"What I wanted was to compete. I mean, I wanted the job, right, but when I didn’t get it, it was, like, well, OK, what’s next?" he continued."And, so, the opportunities that have come my way as a result of not getting that gig, I couldn’t have dreamt it up.
