'Jeopardy!' Names 2 Hosts to Replace Trebek: Mike Richards and Mayim Bialik

“Jeopardy!” has a surprising 2-part answer for who will permanently replace the legendary Alex Trebek for hosting duties — Mike Richards, as expected … AND Mayim Bialik!!!

The iconic game show announced Wednesday morning it will have 2 hosts for the first time in its long history … Richards, Executive Producer of the show, will handle the daily duties of the syndicated program, while Bialik will host “Jeopardy!” primetime and spin-off specials.

Daily Beast first broke the news.

As we reported … Richards was revealed to be the frontrunner recently after guest-hosting in February and crushing it. He’s also hosted other game shows before — “Divided” and “The Pyramid” for Sony Pictures’ GSN cabler — and has produced more than 4,000 hours of game shows.

Bialik was one of several celeb guest hosts who filled in this year — along with Ken Jennings, Aaron Rodgers, LeVar Burton, Anderson Cooper, Katie Couric, George Stephanopoulos and many others — after the final Alex Trebek episodes aired.

Trebek was the “Jeopardy!” host for 36 years before he died, but it looks like the new era is officially set to begin … or new eras, we should say.
