“Jeopardy!” fans believe former Tournament of Champions winner Buzzy Cohen could be a potential new host of the game show.
The speculation comes after a few cryptic tweets were shared by Cohen.
Fan account BuzzerBlog tweeted: “100% prepared to be wrong but still not totally believing that the Mayim-hosts-primetime-Jeopardy thing is still here. If that was still a thing I feel like the many press releases talking about Celebrity Jeopardy would have mentioned her by now.”
Cohen responded with a GIF of Yoda saying, “No, there is another.”
