Mayim Bialik and Ken Jennings will host the remaining episodes of #Jeopardy for the rest of the year. The search for a final, permanent host is still ongoing. bit.ly/3zkw8TA Image
Bialik will take over hosting duties for the first few weeks, and then she and Jennings will trade off as their schedules allow. The two of them will tape enough episodes to get “Jeopardy” through the end of the year. bit.ly/3zkw8TA ImageImage
The news comes after the hosting tenure of former “Jeopardy” executive producer Mike Richards, who was named host, then stepped down nine days later after insensitive comments he made resurfaced, along with two previous discrimination lawsuits. bit.ly/3zkw8TA Image

The next star of #TheBachelor might be an unfamiliar face — but not for long. Insiders say ABC has picked its next star from Michelle Young's upcoming season of #TheBachelorette. bit.ly/3Cl6rEx Image
The new leading man for Season 26 of the hit dating show is Clayton Echard, according to sources. ABC and Warner Bros. TV declined to comment. bit.ly/3Cl6rEx
If Echard’s name doesn’t ring a bell, it’s because Bachelor Nation hasn’t met him yet. Echard will be introduced to America as a suitor on the upcoming season of #TheBachelorette, which premieres next month, and will star fan-favorite Michelle Young. bit.ly/3Cl6rEx
