Today’s Celebrity Jeopardy! contestants:
Katie Nolan, a sports media personality & host, playing for the Trevor Project

In Season 2, SNL alumna Rachel had an epic battle with Macaulay Culkin (with a historic performance on the side from Becky Lynch) before bowing out in the semis to Mo Rocca.

32 correct, 6 incorrect

Andy’s Pre-Game Thoughts:
Welcome to a new season of Celebrity Jeopardy! All Stars. 21 players—including past champions Ike Barinholtz, Lisa Ann Walter, and W. Kamau Bell—have been invited back to battle against each other. Our three champs have been seeded into the semi-finals and will be seen again in May. In the meantime, the 18 other returnees will do battle in the quarter-final round. Quarterfinal #1 features Rachel Dratch, Mark Duplass, and Katie Nolan. As you can see above, the Unified Prediction Model think that all three of our players here have a relatively equal chance of victory. All three of our players averaged between 30–40 correct responses per game in their past appearances and thus I would say this game will come down to who can find the six Daily Doubles.
As the game airs tonight (ABC in the United States, CTV in Canada, at 8:00 Eastern/7:00 Central), I will be updating the page at each commercial break with a recap of that segment, as well as with stats up to that point of the game.

After 45 clues, the scores were Rachel $9,300 Katie $5,200 Mark $3,500. I should note as well at this point that I am really enjoying just how much the celebrities are able to show some personality and have great rapport with both each other as well as Ken.

Andy’s Thoughts:
- Why did both Rachel and Katie wager $9,101? Well, it’s Katie’s proper wager. I’m guessing Rachel made a mistake under pressure and decided calculated Katie’s best wager accidentally, and not her own best wager.
Final Jeopardy! wagering suggestions:
(Scores: Katie $21,700 Rachel $15,400 Mark $13,200)
Rachel: If you think Mark will bet small, bet no more than $1,599. If you think Mark will bet big, bet $11,001 to cover him. (Actual bet: $9,101)
Mark: If Katie is incorrect, she falls to $12,599. I’d limit my bet here to $599. (Actual bet: $13,200)
Katie: Standard cover bet is $9,101. (Actual bet: $9,101)
