SAG-AFTRA is not striking against “Jeopardy!” (they have a separate agreement 
for game shows and some other TV programming that doesn’t expire until next 
year).

Ken is crossing the WGA’s picket line against “Jeopardy!”, but he’s confirmed 
that SAG-AFTRA leadership has told him that he needs to fulfill his existing 
contract as “Jeopardy!” host and producer (along with supporting the 
“Jeopardy!” crew, who are members of IATSE). Presumably, Mayim is under a 
different contract that’s allowing her not to host while the WGA strike is on.
