Jeopardy! is giving itself two answers to the question of who gets to host the quiz show – Mayim Bialik and Ken Jennings.

Bialik and Jennings have been serving as rotating hosts since Mike Richards exited the show amid controversy after a short tenure as the late Alex Trebek's replacement.
Executive producer Michael Davies said in an announcement posted online Wednesday that deals were signed with Bialik and Jennings "to be the hosts of Jeopardy! moving forward."
"In Mayim and Ken, we have two outstanding hosts at the beginning of their Jeopardy! hosting careers who connect with their own unique fanbases, new fans, and the traditional Jeopardy! viewer," Davies said in the statement.
Jennings, an all-time Jeopardy! champion, and actor Bialik (Call Me Kat, The Big Bang Theory) were among the guest hosts who filled in after Trebek's death from cancer in 2020. While the stints were seen as tryouts, the job unexpectedly went to then-executive producer Richards last summer.
