The prime time quiz show where contestants are given the answers and supply the questions, now in its 37th season, has been cycling through a variety of guest hosts after the death of longtime host Alex Trebek in November 2020. Stephanopoulos is the latest guest host, and has taped a week of episodes that will air starting tonight.
“I actually never imagined that I would one day be on the stage as a guest host. It was a thrill enough for me the time I was a category or a response,” Stephanopoulos told Jeopardy! producers.
“The minute that I heard I was going to do it and started telling people, everybody lights up when you tell them you’re going to be guest hosting Jeopardy!,” he said. “They think it’s the coolest thing in the world, and after doing it for a week of shows they’re right.”

NEW BEDFORD Winter is in full effect in New England, but Buttonwood Park Zoo is looking ahead towards spring and looking forward to introducing three brand new species to zoo guests when it finally arrives.
These three unique species were sent to New Bedford as part of collaborative programs of the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA), officials announced in a news release. The zoo participates in many collaborative programs, including AZA Species Survival Plans (SSP). The goal of an SSP is to cooperatively manage animal populations to ensure the sustainability of a healthy and genetically diverse population while enhancing the conservation of this species in the wild.
NEW BEDFORD As “Jeopardy!” continues the search for a permanent host, here’s a look back at some SouthCoast competitors and “SouthCoast-themed” questions over the show’s 37 years on television.
Since the show’s inception in 1964, a few locals from the SouthCoast have had the chance to grab a buzzer to test their knowledge in a wide range of academic and popular categories. They may have had the chance to hear questions read by legendary host, the late
Alex Trebek.
Contestants from New Bedford include Kate Martin, a researcher and editor; Andrew Nelson, an antiquarian bookseller; Tony Barreto, a deputy district attorney, and Chris Rodrigues, a personal banking representative, who was a three-time champion ($41,498) in 2009.
