Today’s Celebrity Jeopardy! contestants:
Jalen Rose, a host & analyst for ESPN, philanthropist, and author, playing for Operation Graduation
Ike Barinholtz, an actor from “The Mindy Project” and “The Afterparty”, playing for Pacific Clinics
Constance Wu, an actor from “Crazy Rich Asians” and “Fresh Off the Boat”, playing for the Asian Mental Health Collective – Lotus Therapy Fund
Andy’s Pregame Thoughts:
Tonight on Celebrity Jeopardy, we have a pair of actors—Ike Barinholtz and Constance Wu—as well as retired NBAer Jalen Rose; Rose was a member of the University of Michigan’s “Fab Five” of the 1990s, who then had a 13-season NBA career and then became an ESPN analyst.
I would also like to say that a number of viewers appear to have had significantly unrealistic expectations regarding this tournament. Celebrity Jeopardy! episodes have always been as much about the celebrities vamping as it’s been about the actual gameplay. This is one reason why I thought it was such a genius move to give us three rounds over the course of one hour. It gives everyone at home a chance to see all of the clues played, and allows the celebrities to “stretch their legs”. Obviously, if you’re expecting gameplay as you’d see on the civilian version, you’re going to be disappointed. But if you remember that it’s not entirely going to be about the trivia, you can sit down and find yourself entertained over the hour-long episode!
Back to the tournament, though, Simu Liu and Iliza Shlesinger are waiting in next week’s first semifinal. Who of these three celebrities will also make it into the semifinals?
PSA: The best way to keep COVID-19 at bay (and keep Jeopardy! producing new episodes) is for everybody to get their vaccinations as soon as they can, including any boosters as recommended. When wearing a mask, please ensure that your mask covers both your nose and your mouth.

Ike recently got the chance to work with “up-and-coming young comedian” Mel Brooks.
Constance has a book and a film coming out.
Today’s interviews, part 2:
Jalen is a big fan of the Jeopardy! theme song and the Cheers! theme song.
Ike is a huge fan of Ken Jennings (the player) and played Alex Trebek on MAD TV.
Constance enjoyed blurting the answer out and playing at home.
Andy’s Thoughts:
- Ike Barinholtz’s Coryat score through Double Jeopardy!, if doubled, would have been $32,600.
- An Ike Barinholtz–Andy Richter matchup would have been epic.
While Constance was bleeped tonight on Celebrity Jeopardy, this is a reminder that these are not the first bleeps in the history of the show. Penn Jillette was bleeped, as well as Vincent Valenzuela.
Today’s box score: October 9, 2022 Celebrity Jeopardy! box score.
