A number of Jeopardy! fans have voiced their objection to Mayim Bialik resuming hosting duties, as Ken Jennings takes a break from the primetime show.
All-time Jeopardy! champ Jennings has hosted the syndicated quiz show since its 38th season, while Bialik has presented the tournaments. The pair have, on occasion, switched places on the main show and specials.
They were officially announced as the show’s permanent hosts before the start of the current season 39 last year, following the death of popular long-time presenter Alex Trebek in November 2020.
Jennings’ most recent block of pre-recorded shows came to an end in April, with Bialik stepping up to the lectern from this week onward. Jennings will be seen hosting the Jeopardy! Masters competition from May 8.
