What happened to Ken Jennings on Jeopardy? Fans beg him to host full-time Tue 9 May 2023 12:28
Jeopardy fans are often left wondering what happened to Ken Jennings as the gameshow airs in 2023. Ken has appeared as a co-host of the show for the past year and it’s safe to say he’s a firm favorite among fans.
Given that Jeopardy is one of the longest-running game shows of all time, it’s no wonder that eagle-eyed fans notice when one of the show’s hosts has a period of absence.
Reversing the regular format of traditional gameshows where co-hosts ask questions and contestants give their answers, Jeopardy sees the players given answers, and from their clues, they have to work out the question.

In 2023, some Jeopardy fans may be confused as to where Ken Jennings is.
