JEOPARDY! has removed nearly any trace of former host Mayim Bialik from its website, including her bio page, The U.S. Sun has spotted.

The change appeared to be the clearest indicator yet that the game show has settled on Ken Jennings as its only host.

Ken, 50, and Mayim, 49, were named Jeopardy! co-hosts in 2022, succeeding the late Alex Trebek after a dramatic host hunt.

In December 2023, the actress announced she had been let go from the series, and the former champion was named sole host.

However, both TV stars still had side-by-side bios on Jeopardy.com – until Friday.

With the iconic game show between seasons and on its annual summer break, they’ve made some changes to their website.

The About The Show page was updated and now only has a bio for Ken, taking away Mayim.

Additionally, searching Mayim’s bio on the website leads to a dead “404” link.

The host bios allowed fans to learn more about the hosts, listing previous accolades and information about their families.

Even after Mayim was let go, her and Ken’s bios, with their beaming faces, were next to each other.

The website is also rife with notable moments and announcements in the form of articles.

Now, only two articles on the website are tagged under Mayim’s name. While it’s unclear if her stories were also taken down, 36 articles are tagged under Ken.

The U.S. Sun has reached out for comment on the change.

OTHER ‘CLUES’ OF MOVING ON

Since Mayim was only announced as leaving the syndicated or nightly show, fans still wondered about future specials and spinoffs.

But Celebrity Jeopardy! was recently renewed for Season 41 without a host attached (Mayim was supposed to host it annually, but Ken stepped in for the most recent season).

And the all-new Pop Culture Jeopardy! tapped Saturday Night Live star Colin Jost earlier this week.

The producers never brought up Mayim or her exit on its weekly official podcast Inside Jeopardy!.

The show recently redid its YouTube outro for all videos to only feature Ken.

It would now seem Mayim is unambiguously not returning in any capacity.

After Alex’s 2020 passing from pancreatic cancer, the show ushered in a series of guest hosts, selecting and un-selecting producer Mike Richards.

Then, Ken stepped in to split hosting duties with Mayim, and that arrangement was made official, and they switched off.

Mayim initially walked out during the last two weeks of Season 39 in May 2023, citing solidarity with the WGA strike.

But when the strike was resolved, she didn’t return.

On December 15, 2023, Mayim broke the Internet when she announced that she had personally been fired from Jeopardy!

“As the Holiday break begins in Hollywood, I have some Jeopardy! news,” she began her Instagram post.

“Sony has informed me that I will no longer be hosting the syndicated version of Jeopardy!”

Jeopardy! cobbled together a similar-looking Instagram statement an hour later, and it has since been reported that Mayim broke the news without consulting the show first.

In their statement, the show expressed that they “hope” to work with Mayim on specials and spinoffs in the future.

That said, the actress has never mentioned the franchise on social media since – or vice versa.

After her dismissal, showrunner Michael Davies stated, “Viewers wanted more consistency. They wanted a single host.”

Ken—who holds the record of 74 straight wins in 2004—later said he understood the decision as shows “don’t have two hosts.”

Ken also tended to be the fan-favorite when the two stars were co-hosts.

Ken now helms all facets of the original show, including specials.

‘NO RELATIONSHIP’

A source more recently claimed to The U.S Sun that Mayim and Jeopardy! production are not in touch.

“The bottom line is that she wanted the sole hosting job and Sony wasn’t willing to give that to her, and she decided to walk away because of that,” a source told The U.S. Sun exclusively.

“Mayim’s exit was a dance of egos because she didn’t want to look bad and neither did the Sony executives overseeing the show,” the source added.

“But by the time Mayim made her announcement, the writing was on the wall that she wasn’t going to get the full-time hosting job.”

The source continued, “Right now, she has no relationship with the production and is moving forward with her other work.”

“Everybody agrees this isn’t the work she was born to do – and that’s what lead to Sony parting ways with her,” the insider added.

They also claimed that given the circumstances surrounding the exit, Mayim would unlikely even want to return.

“The bigger question is, would Mayim say ‘yes’ if invited back as a fill-in? I’m not sure that she would.”

Jeopardy! Host Timeline

Jeopardy! has had a tumultuous history regarding hosts after the death of the iconic Alex Trebek in 2020. Here are all of the hosts since the game show’s inception in 1964.

Art Fleming – 1964 to 1975, he was the original host of the daytime version of Jeopardy! on NBC.

Alex Trebek – 1984 to 2020, the late, great Alex hosted Jeopardy!’s modern iteration for 36 years until his death from pancreatic cancer.

Guest hosts – 2020 to 2021, Jeopardy! tested out a series of guest hosts for week or two-week stints, including Anderson Cooper, LaVar Burton, and Aaron Rodgers.

Mike Richards – 2021, he was named host for one week before resigning amid controversy. He was the show’s executive producer at the time.

Mayim Bialik – 2021 to 2023, when Mike was announced as the show’s new host, Mayim was chosen to host tournaments and primetime specials.

Mayim and Ken Jennings – 2022 to 2023, 74-time champion Ken (the longest-winning contestant ever) joined Mayim as a guest host and they split hosting duties.

Ken Jennings – 2023 to present. Last December, Mayim announced on Instagram that she would “no longer” host Jeopardy! after a lengthy hiatus, having stood with the writer’s strike, and Ken was named sole host.

Ken now helms all editions of Jeopardy! including Celebrity Jeopardy!, the nightly show, and other primetime specials like Masters.

Ken is reportedly tied to a $4 million contract as host, though that figure may rise as Alex made $10 million annually by the end of his 36-year tenure.

Jeopardy!’s 41st season will premiere on September 9.
