Mayim Bialik Wants Revenge on Ken Jennings After ‘Jeopardy!’ Ousting: Sources

Sony Pictures Televsion, which produces the show, said the decision to drop Bialik and move forward with Jennings at the helm was done in an effort to maintain “continuity” with loyal viewers.

During a recent interview with the Hollywood Reporter, Jennings revealed the decision surprised him.

“It took me off guard, because I loved working with my Mayim and I’m going to miss her,” Jennings said while noting, “I can’t speak to her decision-making process or her opinions about it.”

“But on my end, I’m just a fan of Jeopardy! and I’m always delighted to host when they call upon me. I just feel extremely lucky to have even been considered for this job, as a non-broadcaster.”
