What exactly the long-term plan is on Jeopardy is a bit unclear.
Right now, we know it will move forward with a series of guests hosts, starting with Jennings, for an unknown length of time, and assumedly, at some point, a permanent host will be slotted in.
The show has been very clear about wanting to move forward without Alex Trebek, and the departed host was also very clear before he died that he wanted the show to continue.
Fans recently circulated a position pushing for LeVar Burton, but at this point, we don’t know if Jeopardy is focused on casting a former contestant (or someone associated with the show like Sarah or Jimmy from the Clue Crew) or whether they would be open to a random celebrity or even another game show host.
