Jennings is now serving as a consulting producer, which means he will not only get to craft his own signature video categories for episodes, but he’ll also work on developing other Jeopardy!-related projects while also helping with contestant outreach.
Beyond that, he’ll also serve in a general ambassador role for the game show, seeing as how Alex Trebek’s health issues in recent years limits his availability.
Speaking of the clue process, Jeopardy! revealed that longtime super-champ Ken Jennings has joined the show in a behind-the-scenes capacity that will still put him in front of viewers’ faces every so often.
