Big Bang Theory's Mayim Bialik slammed by Jeopardy fans in first clip of hosting duty


As Ken Jennings takes a hiatus from Jeopardy hosting duties, The Big Bang Theory’s Mayim Bialik is set for a short stint in the hot seat for the three-week long High School Reunion Tournament.

However, unfortunately for the actress, fans weren’t impressed by her first-look scenes – which doesn’t bode well with rumours she’s set to stick around for the rest of the quiz show’s current season.

Mayim, 47, looked smart in a chic light blazer and dark shirt combination in the teaser clip for her new role.

In the video shared to the show’s Instagram, Mayim is seen taking up regular hosting duties for the first time in five months as regular host Ken, 48, takes a break.

The 14-part series sees 27 former Teen Tournament contestants from 2019 battle it out again.
