About this episode

BANG! Actor Mayim Bialik is the new host of Jeopardy — for now. After the disgraced Mike Richards stepped down after just one day at the helm of the iconic game show, Mayim was named the interim host while the search to replace the late, great Alex Trebek continues. As fans clamor for just the right person, it begs the question: Why do we care so much about who hosts Jeopardy?!
