Infobox instructions (only shown in preview)

Celebrity Jeopardy! is an American game show that consists of 13-episode tournaments - each played by 27 celebrities.[1] Their winnings in the tournaments are donated to a charity of their choice.

Unlike previous iterations of "Celebrity Jeopardy!", which were special editions of Jeopardy!, Celebrity Jeopardy! is a separate entity, airing in a different time slot while regular episodes of Jeopardy! continue to air as normal.[2] The series premiered on September 25, 2022 on ABC[3] with Mayim Bialik as the host.[4] In May 2023, the series was renewed for a second season, which premiered on September 27, 2023, with Ken Jennings replacing Bialik as host.[5][6] In November 2023, it was announced that the second part of the second season would resume on Tuesday nights starting January 2, 2024.[7] In May 2024, the series was renewed for a third season.[8]
