Long-running US quiz programme Jeopardy has picked two new permanent hosts to replace presenter Alex Trebek, who died of cancer last year.
Sony Pictures announced on Wednesday that programme producer Mike Richards and Big Bang Theory actress Mayim Bialik will share presenting duties.
“Jeopardy!” has spent the past seven months rotating 16 guest hosts at the podium once manned by late host Alex Trebek.
Some, including LeVar Burton and former champ Ken Jennings, were contenders for the permanent slot, while others, such as “Good Morning America” anchor Robin Roberts, were paying tribute to Trebek’s legacy.
The new season of the trivia game show – where contestants must answer clues “in the form of a question” – will debut on September 13.
It will be the programme’s 38th season.
