UPDATE: the studio behind Jeopardy! has released a statement saying that it was decided to keep Ken Jennings as the sole host of syndicated Jeopardy! in order to "maintain continuity for viewers." They are "truly grateful for all of Mayim’s contributions to Jeopardy!," and they "hope to continue to work with her on primetime specials." The original story continues as follows.
Following Alex Trebek’s death in late 2020, there was the question of who would take over Jeopardy! hosting duties from him. For a few years, this was handled by former champ Ken Jennings and The Big Bang Theory actress Mayim Bialik trading off as host of the syndicated game show, but this period of the show’s history has come to an end. Bialik has shared in a departing statement that she won’t be returning for more Jeopardy!.
