There will not be a double dose of Celebrity Jeopardy!<\/a><\/em> this year. The game show<\/a> will premiere its fifth season in 2027.<\/p>\n According to an ABC<\/a> press release, Season 5 of Celebrity Jeopardy!<\/em> has been pushed to midseason. What does that mean? Typically, mid-season premieres happen in January or February, compared to the fall. So, check back here for an update closer to the time.<\/p>\n The season was originally announced to air in the fall<\/a> during the Disney upfronts on May 12. The release states that the date for Celebrity Jeopardy!<\/em>, along with the other mid-season shows, will be announced at a later date.<\/p>\n \u201cWe enter this fall season from a position of undeniable strength,\u201d\u00a0 Craig Erwich, president of Disney Television Group, said in a press release. \u201cOur focus has always been simple: Make the best shows on television and get them to audiences however they want to watch. That strategy continues to drive the success of\u00a0ABC\u00a0and\u00a0Hulu<\/a> \u2014 from legacy hits being embraced by new generations to breakout series becoming the next cultural touchstones. With a standout slate of comedies, dramas, unscripted and live programming, alongside marquee events like the Super Bowl, the College Football Playoff, the Grammys, and the Oscars\u00a0<\/a>in 2027, our content engine is firing on all cylinders.\u201d<\/p>\n Typically, the spinoff game show airs on Wednesday nights at 9\/8c. This year, that slot goes to Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?<\/a>,<\/em> which will still air its fifth season<\/a> into October. However, an exact reason for the change was not given.<\/p>\n Ken Jennings<\/a> will return as host of the celebrity version. He hosts all of the versions of the game show, aside from Pop Culture Jeopardy!<\/a><\/em>\u00a0(Colin Jost<\/a>) and\u00a0ESPN Jeopardy!<\/a><\/em>\u00a0(Joe Buck<\/a>), both of which are exclusively on streaming.<\/p>\n The cast has not yet been revealed, and probably won\u2019t be for a while, since it was pushed back. However, it is expected to be all-new celebrities, as Season 4 was All-Stars, which brought back contestants from Seasons 1 through 3.<\/p>\n The\u00a0Celebrity Jeopardy!<\/em>\u00a0winner takes home $1 million for their chosen charity, and the\u00a0Celebrity Jeopardy!<\/em> trophy. They also most likely earn a spot in the Tournament of Champions. Second and third place win $200,000 for their charities. Mina Kimes<\/a> won Season 4 and will compete in the Tournament of Champions<\/a>, also rumored to air in early 2027.<\/p>\n To get your fix until Season 5, the previous seasons can be streamed on Hulu.<\/p>\n Celebrity Jeopardy!<\/em>, Season 5, early 2027, ABC<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
