DRY JENNINGS FEARS JOB LOSS TO JOLLY JOST!

Lower ratings show writing on the wall

- 

NERVOUS Ken Jennings is in a panic over lousy Celebrity Jeopardy! ratings, which he fears will cause him to be replaced by glib Colin Jost or some other star with more personality, say sources.

The 50-year-old exsoftware engineer, who shot to fame as Jeopardy!'s most celebrated champion, took over the Celebrity edition of the long-running game show from Big Bang Theory alum Mayim Bialik in December 2023.

But the star-studded spinoff hit a new low in January, notching fewer than 2 million viewers and falling to ninth place in the ratings.
