According to EW, this lineup will serve as scheduled guest players when the show officially debuts in September.  While it wasn’t initially clear if Bialik would take on Celebrity Jeopardy!‘s hosting honors, she was just named one of Jeopardy!‘s official co-hosts alongside G.O.A.T. Champ Ken Jennings with whom she shares duties on the syndicated program.

Meanwhile, Bialik is currently set to helm any primetime tournaments and seems to be extending her reach with this celebrity iteration of the original game. As Bialik teased in EW‘s video clip, Celebrity Jeopardy! is exactly like “the OG Jeopardy!, with celebrities.”
