Bialik, who was a star in the shows “Blossom” and “The Big Bang Theory” and now hosts the popular quiz show, was in Rhode Island for a “fireside chat” at Bryant University earlier this week.
She joined Rhode Island native Don Reo, who was the creator of "Blossom."
Stayed tuned for more Jeopardy sightings in Rhode Island — host Ken Kennings is coming to Bryant for an appearance in May.
