More ‘Jeopardy!’ Guest Hosts Have Been Announced

Longtime Jeopardy! host Alex Trebek sadly died in November. He had pre-taped episodes so the game show had time to find temporary replacements. For now, a permanent host has not yet been named, but several celebrities are taking over in the meantime. It was previously announced that former contestant Ken Jennings and Katie Couric will be guest hosts.

Now, it has also been revealed that Aaron Rodgers, Bill Whitaker, and Mayim Bialik will also become guest hosts. In addition, a donation will be made to the charity of their choice while they host the show. Executive producer Mike Richards said, “Alex was a legend, revered by all of us. I want to thank our guest hosts, who will not only help all of us celebrate his great legacy, but also bring their own touch to the show.”

He also competed in Celebrity Jeopardy! in 2015.
