I only caught a glimpse as I hit delete on my DVR at the end of the episode, but I think Mayim is going to be hosting for the rest of the season. ---

Just checked the episode on Youtube TV. The announcement was that on Monday’s show, “Mayim Bialik returns as host.” That’s it. No time frame given. Besides, even if an announcement did use the word “season,” that would mean until the end of the current Jeopardy season, which ends in July, not the end of the current calendar year. ---

> [@psychobunny](#): > > I guess whenever I think Magnum I think of him in a Hawaiian shirt. Judging by online comments, I am not the only one who found it easy. Maybe it’s because I live in Hawaii, but I thought the _Hawaii Five-0_ answer should have been a no-brainer. Of course I also watched the original series when it came out and knew about when it ended and _Magnum_ began. But c’mon. Especially with both series having undergone recent reboots, I really expected at least one contestant to get it. ---

In the context of a show that had one host for 15 years and the next for 35 years, yes that is temporary. ---

Just last Thursday, April 27, “Hannibal” was a response in both the first and second rounds. “Hannibal” the TV series in single Jeopardy, and “Hannibal,” Mark Twain’s hometown, in Double Jeopardy. They have occasionally done categories where all, or most, of the responses are deliberately the same word. Sometimes they do that to trick you on the last one. For example, I’m pretty sure there was a category where the first four responses were all “Alaska.” Then the final clue was “The first state alphabetically.” You’re tempted to say Alaska for that, too, but WHOOPS! You’re wrong. It’s Alabama. That kind of thing is less effective these days, when nobody does the clues in order anymore. ---
