LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: 'Jeopardy!' host Mayim Bialik did not really fare well as a host, accoring to fans of the game show. However, 'The Big Bang Theory' actress seems to be reminiscing about her good memories amid the trolling.
Bialik recently posted a throwback with Dustin Hoffman, thinking back on the time well-spent with the actor on a movie set. The game show host has not once acknowledged the hate she has been receiving on the internet for her hosting skills and sharing the platform with co-host, Ken Jennings.
Mayim Bialik's throwback picture with Dustin Hoffman
On June 28, the actress shared a wholesome selfie with Hoffman. The picture showed the two close together while Hoffman pointed at Bialik as she clicked the picture. The caption said, "Wrap party for my movie 2 years ago today !!"
The selfie is from the sets of 'As they Made Us' which was directed by Bialik while Hoffman starred in the film alongside Diana Agron and Simon Helberg. Bialik's fans shared their love on the comments of her photo with one of them saying, "2 of my favorite actors." Another said, "Working with a legend!!"
Mayim Bialik's turbulent time as a 'Jeopardy!' host
It is safe to say that while Bialik has hosted the game show for so many months, she has been facing a barrage of criticism, aimed at her hosting skills. She was introduced as a co-host besides Jennings in 2023 and many fans who were used to him were not happy with the transition. Many have so far said that they will not watch 'Jeopardy!' unless it was hosted by Jennings alone.
The main point of their criticism was Bialik's inappropriate hosting skills. Viewers found fault with the way she reacted to the contestants and the way she took pauses while responding to answers to clues. She has also been under fire for unfairly ruling multiple responses in the past.
While this all has transpired, there has not been any word on whether she will continue hosting the show or not. Currently, she has taken a break from 'Jeopardy!' to support the WGA strike while Jennings has decided to continue as a full-time host again.
