One particularly fun (and fan-favorite) return is Culkin. The Home Alone star previously competed on Celebrity Jeopardy! in 2023 after being referenced as a clue on the show dozens of times. “You have been part of a ‘Jeopardy!’ clue, like, 42 times over your career,” host Ken Jennings told him at the time, per The Post. Culkin laughed, responding, “Oh, wow! Look mom, I’m famous! I’m a factoid! Trivial.”

Jennings joked he wasn’t sure if Culkin himself would appear on the board that night. “That would make it so much easier. For real,” Culkin teased. “I would be so much less nervous.”

During that appearance, Culkin competed on behalf of the San Diego Zoo and Wildlife Alliance—a reminder that, beyond bragging rights, the stakes are philanthropic.
