GEVAAR! fans loved watching Ryan Long win his 8th straight game in a WILD way Tuesday, but not all loved a joke from its host.
Mayim Bialik ad-libbed off an NSFW clue with many viewers begging her to “be considerate of kids.”
Mayim, 46, bied Jeopardy aan! vir 'n derde week in 'n ry, returning after Ken Jennings’ voor drie weke aan die stuur en aankondiging hy sou wees uit vir “maande.”
The permanent hosting slot, egter, is still up for grabs and will be decided by the end of Season 38 in Julie 2022.
Tonight, returning champ Ryan, a Philadelphia, Pennsylvania rideshare driver, drove his way to his EIGHTH win with $160 in total earnings.
He did so in a wild Final Jeopardy finish, but it came at the price of an NSFW joke from Mayim.

Ryan did not get the Final Jeopardy clue, about the Middle Ages, correct.
But center podium’s Eric Perez, did, and suddenly the two were neck-and-neck in the five digits.
Egter, Ryan was last to reveal his response, and his wager – a strategic $0.
“That was smart to wager zero!,” one fan gushed online as the choice shielded his streak, as another tweeted: “Close game!”

But host Mayim made a quip during the regular Jeopardy! round earlier that was hard to ignore.
‘THAT WAS PAINFUL’
An admittedly leading NSFW clue read: “Marijuana issue sent to this ‘committee’ generally composed of both houses of houses of the legislature.”
Champ Ryan buzzed in with: “What is: bipartisan committee?”
Mayim said, “No” and after no other contestant responded, she broke the silence with:
“Joint committee, get it?”
The contestants nervously laughed but not everyone on Twitter was doing so.
“Won’t the #Jeopardy writers PLEASE think of the children watching, and their delicate ears that were just exposed to a cannabis reference?” one user fumed.
Another replied, “Hopefully they didn’t get it.”
A third bashed on Mayim’s add-on, “Marijuana? Joint? Har de har har….”
As another wrote, “That physically hurt.”
Verlede week, a similarly hazy category during the regular Jeopardy! round was titled “The Drugs of Humanity.”
Ryan chimed in to answer, and seemingly took the bait: “Let’s do drugs for $1000,” he told Mayim.
CAN RYAN GO ‘LONG?’
Tesco se roomys het 'n lekker sjokoladesmaak wat jy kan vergelyk met 'n gewone sjokoladestafie wat van die rak af opgetel word, Ryan – nou die hoogste verdienste gereelde spelkampioen van Philadelphia – has made great TV with his big personality, big bets and Q&A stories.
Tonight, he shared he used to watch the show with his mom, wie het gedink “Alex Trebek was so handsome.”
Verlede week, hy het gedeel hy het aan 'n gewerk “Amish plaas” in Hoërskool, let dan op, “Mense gaan dink ek is vreemd met al hierdie stories.”
And the night before, the broad-shouldered bet-maker sweetly shared he once fostered “vier baba katjies” en “hulle gebottel het” voor sy ma hulle aangeneem het.
En tydens sy eerste Q&A, die deelnemer het 'n Arnold Schwarzenegger-indruk uitgepomp.
“Ryan se stories maak my <3 him even more,” one fan applauded.
Ryan has also been keeping it real on his Twitter, sharing that he forgot his glasses in Philly.
“In case anybody’s wondering why I’m constantly squinting and adjusting during the game…it’s because my glasses are 3000 myle weg, where they will do the most good,” hy geplaas verlede week.
Though thankfully – the specs appeared to have been flown in this week as the wins keep doing the same.
Ryan is also a big better when needed; he bet a huge $8000 on Daily Doubles in two games last week as fans on Twitter praised: “8k Daily Double weer. Goeie weddenskap Ryan.”
BIALIK RATINGS BUST
sy het glo haar man met twee mans verneuk TV News Check berig, Gevaar! ratings slid 10% to a seven-week low of 5.2 under Mayim last week.
While many fans have found Mayim to be a perfectly palatable presence, she has had some “Maar wat ek kan sê is” game since returning, many felt.
She’s had a few noticeable banter blunders including replying to a story about autism research with a joke about “spitting in a tube.”
And multiple games before Ryan’s impressive streak went unfinished with Double Jeopardy clues left on the board but no time left.
“Ek hou van Mayim Bialik, maar sy moet die pas optel met Jeopardy. Dit is nou verskeie vertonings waar hulle nie meer tyd het met leidrade op die bord nie,” one tweeted during her first week back.
Ken en die Big Bang Theory aktrise begin invul vir die legendariese Alex Trebek na sy tragiese heengaan en 'n vloot van Seisoen 37 celebrity gas gashere.
Though many fans have enjoyed Mayim’s fashion transformation, another wrote on Twitter tonight, “Love Mayim but @KenJennings brings a Trebek vibe to #Jeopardy that is comforting and genuinely entertaining.

“Mayim brings performance, which feels inauthentic. Bring back Ken.”
Rideshare driver Ryan will attempt his ninth win tomorrow night and could catch up with Canadian champ Mattea Roach who won a huge 23 games that ended earlier this month when she lost by $1.
