Celebrity Jeopardy! Is Bringing Back 3 Former Champs for an All-Stars Showdown
ABC is bringing back Celebrity Jeopardy! All Stars in March. Three former winners will have the chance to defend their titles against some very competitive people.
Who’s Playing Celebrity Jeopardy! All Stars?
Lisa Ann Walter, who plays a feisty teacher in Abbott Elementary, goes up against Ike Barinholtz, and W. Kamau Bell, who also won their episodes. They’ll compete against other trivia buffs starting March 13, on ABC. It will stream the next day on Hulu.
After his victory, Bell talked about how it can be hard to play it cool.
“During the first episode, my goal was not to embarrass myself,” Bell said on the Jeopardy website. “However, as my wife is well aware, I do know a lot of random things. In any conversation that gets stuck over an unknown fact or figure, I’m the first to pull out my phone and look it up.”
Comedian Andy Richter, Macaulay Culkin, Ray Romano, Mark Duplass, Saturday Night Live alum Rachel Dratch, Margaret Cho, and Cynthia Nixon, will also be featured in the All Stars season, along with podcaster Katie Nolan, sports analyst Mina Kimes, Steven Weber, Sean Gunn, comedian Roy Wood Jr., Patton Oswalt, Robin Thede, Mira Sorvino, Jackie Tohn, Tim Simons, and Mo Rocca, according to reporting in People magazine.
Tune in on March 13 for the first of 10 episodes.
