'Jeopardy!' host Mayim Bialik was slammed after she forgot to wish the show's longtime announcer a happy birthday.

The latest installment saw returning champ Emily Fiasco, a middle school band director from St. Louis, Missouri, hold her own against challengers Anjali Bhat and Mark Primiano. Bialik, who shares hosting duties with former champion Ken Jennings, 48, forgot to wish Gilbert before starting the gameplay.
