As today's episode aired, fans took to Twitter to express their dislike for host Mayim.

One viewer wrote: "Jeopardy! needs to make Ken Jennings the full-time host.

"Not only do I miss Ken when he’s not there, but Mayim reminds me daily of how much better he is at the job."

Today's reaction comes after The Sun exclusively revealed that the show's ratings nearly doubled as Ken, 47, made his first appearance and hosted through contestant Amy Schneider's two-month winning streak.

Ken's view count dropped in January after Amy left, but Ken still averaged a commendable 9.2 million views, surpassing Wheel of Fortune and other competing game show ratings.

However, when Mayim, 46, took over her hosting duties for the Jeopardy! College Championship back in February, viewers tuned out, and the headcount dropped to 5.5 million viewers

By the end of March, Mayim increased her viewers up to 5.7 million, but fans are still begging Ken to take over full time.

WHAT IS PERMANENT HOST?

Fans think they know who the permanent host of the show will be after the announcer dropped a subtle hint.

Johnny Gilbert, the Jeopardy! announcer, who has been on the show since Alex started, introduces Mayim and Ken in two different ways.

Fans on Reddit noticed that Johnny will introduce Ken as "hosting Jeopardy!," but says Mayim is "the host of Jeopardy!."

This led viewers to believe that the Big Bang Theory star will take over from Alex Trebek full-time.
