Longtime fans of “Jeopardy!” are threatening to boycott the show since Mayim Bialik and Ken Jennings are splitting hosting duties.
On Wednesday, the beloved game show announced that the two interim hosts would keep their jobs, with Jennings hosting from September to January and Bialik taking over from January through the end of the season.
The “Call Me Kat” actress will also be the host of “Celebrity Jeopardy!” and special tournaments, while Jennings will host the Second Chance Tournament and the Tournament of Champions.
That was unwelcome news for some viewers as both the history-making “Jeopardy!” champion and the “Big Bang Theory” alum have faced their fair share of blunders — and, therefore, criticism.
The Twitter announcement received hundreds of responses, many expressing unhappiness at the news that Bialik would be sticking around.
