Ken Jennings, official syndicated version host! Mayim Bialik, official primetime version host.

When it was the time when all were taking their turns at hosting, I had 3 picks for Jeopardy. Aarron Rodgers, Ken Jennings and Mayim Bialik. I have to admit I was disappointed when Aaron was not in the final running, but I knew in my heart that Ken would make the best fit because he and Alex seemed to have a strong connection. After 74 days, who would not have a bond. He has done many things with and for Jeopardy that he is all deserving of this honor. Than Mayim who is passionate about learning came along and she is the perfect host for the specials/tournaments. It means so much to me that 2 of my picks made it to the Jeopardy hosting podium! Thank you from the bottom of my heart Ken and Mayim for continuing Alex Trebeks' legacy!

I know Ken and Mayim will do their very best to make Alex proud and the fans happy. I’m very excited for Season 39.

They were my two top picks to become the permanent hosts when they had I guess what you would call auditions but seemed more like a vanity project for resumes. Simple reason, you want hosts who sound and are a little nerdy and they both fit the bill, they really are no kidding smart people not someone with just the big school of broadcasting voice. It has worked out well. I'm even surprised at a few of Ken's witticisms. This was one of those transitions that had a lot of landmines and somehow it worked out perfectly, even having two hosts gives it a nice change of pace.

I’m so glad Jeopardy decided to keep both as hosts. I really like them and their different personalities are fine with me.

It felt like winning the pennant, and when Mayim Bialik was confirmed it was like winning the World Series.

I LOVE both of them!!! YAY!!!!

As an acquaintance of original host Art Fleming when he was on KMOX radio, I wish Jeopardy would do a special week or tournament using the original rules that actually allowed a contestant to be put in jeopardy by ringing in before the answer could even be read. That was what really made this show such a tough one to win back in the 1960s. Contestants like Jay Wolpert were amazing!

How cool!!! I love Mayim. I found the friendship and affection that one has for the other wonderful.

I think they both do a great job while bringing different things to hosting the show. I’ve often wondered how do they keep track of who selects the next category and amount after a wrong response. Also do they as hosts know where the Daily Doubles are, sometimes it seems like they’re announcing them before they’re revealed, Alex seemed to do it all the time.

If u watch the contestants pulpits or booths, I believe in the bottom right or maybe left of those has a white light that always is lit for who is in control of the board and Yes I do believe it is written in front of the host's' as to where the daily doubles are. The next time u watch Jeopardy I'de wager a true daily double that you will be looking for the bright white little bulb at the front bottom of the podiums to see who has control of the board. Ooops I mean " Who will looking for the light in which we speak of?" Haha

Both are great, congrats 👏

They were talking about things they enjoy about the game/categories, etc. I enjoy when they get a clue that someone in our age group would know so easily but the contestants are standing there silent without a clue and no one buzzes in. I love their responses, like "C'mon guys! Really?"

I do look forward to Mayim's hosting.

To tell the truth of the matter, Ken Jennings and Mayim Bialik should both host the show together like how Pat Sajak and Vanna White do on _Wheel of Fortune_ - that way, Mayim can be Sony's *SECOND* beautiful board model!

Agreed. I would rather host The Price is Right. Far easier.

I absolutely love watching Ken Jennings host Jeopardy. Mayim is sweet and I enjoy listening to her voice. What is difficult for me to watch is she seems to shift around quite a bit the way I do when I am standing while experiencing back pain. I have two suggestions. (1) Dump the heels. They aren’t worth it or slip them on only when walking out from the pulpit. My friend had two knee replacements because of wearing heels while she taught First Grade for decades. The children would not have cared. Instead, consider more comfortable shoes like Alegria or Sketchers or some other comfortable shoe. (2) , I would contact Carol Tuttle of Dressing Your Truth for wardrobe, hair and makeup suggestions. Carol’s program is inexpensive. Dress with colors/color tones, textures, styles and jewelry that bring out Mayim’s fun personality. Often Mayim’s Jeopardy clothing is making her look drab and matronly which is opposite of her personality. Ken looks great! Just some ideas.

Mayim Chaya Bialik is such a beautiful name. The name is a poem

I'd honestly rather not have a new permanent host. Sure, co-hosts is unusual for game shows. However, only Alex can be the true host. He hosted for over 36 years and Jeopardy is called "The Alex Trebek stage". Long live the king!
