Earlier this month, both "Jeopardy!" Greatest of All Time tournament winner Ken Jennings and Mayim Bialik were announced as hosts of regular "Jeopardy!".

"In Mayim and Ken, we have two outstanding hosts at the beginning of their Jeopardy! hosting careers who connect with their own unique fanbases, new fans, and the traditional Jeopardy viewer," he continued.
