Who is Jeopardy! executive producer Michael Davies?

Born March 3, 1966, Davies, 56, is known as a United States-based British television game show producer.

Following Richards' departure, Davies joined Jeopardy! as an executive producer on an interim basis but accepted a full-time position in December 2021.

“Jeopardy! has a massive opportunity to build further and, far from being threatened by the massive changes in the media landscape, we can take advantage of the emergence of new platforms and bring more Jeopardy! to more audiences," Davies wrote in a on the Jeopardy! website.

"There is just so much more we can do together. So, although I never imagined I’d be writing this… Today, I am delighted to announce that I have accepted Sony’s offer to become the show’s full time Executive Producer,” he continued.

Before Jeopardy!, Davies worked on a number of TV and game shows including, Who Wants to Be a Millionaire, The Walking Dead: Origins, Kal Penn Approves This Message, and The Pyramid.

Who are the Jeopardy! hosts?

Along with a new executive producer, Jeopardy! also got two new hosts in 2021 following Alex Trebek's passing.

After the show spent an entire season rotating through guest hosts, they then hired Mayim Bialik and Ken Jennings to take over the role permanently.

Bialik is known as an actress and neuroscientist who rose to fame on the shows Blossom and The Big Bang Theory, while Jennings rose to fame on the game show in 2004 after he went on a 74-game victory streak worth $2.52million.

In April 2022, it was announced that Jennings will be returning to host after season 38, but at this time, it remains unclear if Bialik will continue her role as well.
