Ken Jennings Fears Mayim Bialik’s Return to ‘Jeopardy!’ Will Mark the End of His Time as Host: Report
“Pat Sajak‘s departure and the way Vanna White‘s been treated serve as a stark reminder there’s no room for complacency in this cutthroat game show world,” an insider dished back in July. “Ken and Mayim are under no illusions about that!”
The source noted that the actress and former contestant both apparently came to the realization that a truce was needed in an attempt to salvage their part-time positions, even amid ongoing rumors that Bialik was vying to be top dog at the show.
“There’s a serious possibility they’ll both be booted in favor of some hotshot,” the insider said of the part-time hosts playing nice to save their game show careers.
