Meanwhile, despite the ongoing writers’ strike, Jeopardy! proper returned to the network Monday, with Jennings commanding the spot behind the podium. The host had been facing pressure to follow co-host Bialik’s lead in not crossing the picket line. As previously reported, Season 40 of the mothership will feature — at least in the early going — both recycled questions and contestants (from Season 37).
