Celebrity Jeopardy! Is Getting A Season 3
Deadline announced on Friday afternoon that ABC has renewed Celebrity Jeopardy for a third season; this is not a surprise here, as the show has been reasonably successful for The Mouse in the fall and January the last two seasons.
Host information, participating players, and whether the show will use its Season 1 or Season 2 writers has not yet been confirmed.

My Thoughts On The 2025 Postseason
This was originally going to be a longer, stand-alone article, but Michael Davies’s comments on Inside Jeopardy! this week outlined enough similar concerns that I think it’s now more appropriate for me to give my thoughts in the editorial section instead.
Basically, the major issue is that there isn’t enough time in the Jeopardy! calendar to bring back all of the non-Tournament of Champions players for an airdate on syndicated Jeopardy, in addition to being able to fit in Second Chance, a Tournament of Champions, and a Jeopardy! Invitational Tournament.
Personally, I think there are two solutions to this, each of which I think are equally viable and good:
- Put the Champions Wildcard preliminary rounds on an audio-only solution, like TuneIn.
Put the Jeopardy! Invitational Tournament on a streaming service.
Basically, with the 160-odd regular-play games that the 32nd Tournament of Champions cycle is going to be seeing, historically, you would see about 80 champions overall, split into 40 1-time champs, 20 2-time champs, 10 3-time champs, 5 4-time champs, 3 5-time champs, and 2 6+-time champs.
The advantage to putting Champions Wildcard preliminaries on an audio service is that the show already has an audio partner in TuneIn. There are other potential partners as well if TuneIn isn’t interested.
The advantage to putting JIT onto a streaming service is that it’s a standalone tournament featuring marketable players that can be more accessible to everyone, and it shields the show slightly from criticism that it is taking regular play slots away from “civilians” in favor of returning past players again.
Whatever route the show chooses to take, I think it is crucial that every player who wins a game gets the opportunity to return, as this promotes playing to win (as opposed to potentially “settling” for a Second Chance invite instead).
In order to redesign our merchandise area to serve you better in 2026, all merchandise sales have been temporarily taken offline. Look for a return in late 2026! All previous orders will still be supported.
r/Jeopardy Is A Cancer Upon The Fandom. It Needs Chemotherapy.
Over the past few months, r/Jeopardy has turned into a place where one could generally find reasonable discourse about the show into an echo chamber where if you do not completely fit the “groupthink” of “tournaments are terrible,” you are deemed to be unwelcome. Moreover, it definitely seems as though most of the “opinions” are coming from a very small percentage of people—I would say, maybe 100 people—whose opinions are being amplified by tabloids. (In fact, The Sun one day quoted the same user six times and implied these opinions came from six different Reddit users.)
I have said this before, but I firmly believe that many of these complaints are rooted in a collective disappointment of unrealized contestant dreams—and the corresponding lessened ability to cheer for people “like them” on the show. (And yes, “like them” is deliberate: a distinct negative about the show being followed by people throughout the United States is that there is a very distinct patch of white supremacy within the show’s fandom, many of whom see the current contestant group makeup as a personal affront to them.)
This sort of behavior is encouraged by the moderators of the subreddit, who yesterday, went as far to post misleading statistics surrounding overall viewership of Jeopardy! Masters in an attempt to convince people that the show should change course—posting viewing numbers that completely failed into account the general cord-cutting that takes place year-over-year and the very likely increase in viewership on Hulu.
r/Jeopardy has become the worst part of being a Jeopardy! fan and it is my belief that every single subreddit moderator needs to resign and hand over the subreddit to fans who will be more positive regarding the show. Or, if not, the show needs to start completely ignoring the subreddit, because r/Jeopardy—or any discussion forum, for that matter—no longer has the best interests of the show at heart.
