I don’t know about you, but I don’t know anyone who likes Mayim Bialik as a host on Jeopardy. And now we know that she will not be back hosting Celebrity Jeopardy on ABC. Instead, Ken Jennings is taking over the role.
So, was the actress fired? “She wasn’t fired,” an insider told The Messenger. “She’s choosing to stand with her union, and because of that, she was told it is unlikely she will return for the rest of the year, even if the strike is resolved before then.”
So what about the daily show? She is hoping to split duties with Jennings again when the strikes are over. But will they want her? We know we don’t.
Jeopardy is an educational show. But most of the stuff they teach me I don’t care about. However, thanks to the category Musical Act Etymology, I was actually interested in the lesson that they taught me.
I learned that a singer from one of the rockingest bands came up with their name while reading books on UFOs. How out of the world is that? Do you know which band it is? I am not going to tell you. You are just going to have to watch the video above to find out.
Andrew Lloyd Webber is one of the most successful Broadway producers of all time. Therefore, it would make sense that Jeopardy would give him his own category.
And if the producers of the game show are smart enough, they will ask him to read the answers to the contestants. And if Webber is smart enough, he will say yes. So they asked and he agreed to do it.
Yesterday, he made his Jeopardy debut, just like he made his Broadway debut in 1971. Can you guess which show was the first one of his to hit the Great White Way?
