Celebrity Jeopardy to air regularly in the fall

Who would you like to see as contestants on the show? I wonder if they could get Pete Buttigieg to come on the show? I think he'd excel.

ABC has ordered new “Jeopardy!” primetime spinoff series “Celebrity Jeopardy!” The show is set to premiere as part of the Disney-owned broadcaster’s fall slate, airing alongside “Celebrity Wheel of Fortune” on Sundays.

I hear Celebrity Jeopardy and SNL's version is the first thing I think of.

I always got a good laugh out of those category mispronunciations.

9. I think Mayim is far better, a lot more warm and involved than Ken.

I will say he has stepped it up some, he was atrocious at the beginning but is relating much better these days. Think he must have been told to improve or go away. Think they made her dress more conservatively since she already had the relating thing down.

10. You must like "Single Jeopardy" and hearing "That is correct" 5 seconds after an answer.

Jennings has Jeopardy running through his veins, his delivery is seamless and his inside jokes are spot on, I really don't know what she brings to the table.

14. Ken is very dry, though he has improved from his absolutely awful beginning.

I couldn't bear to watch Carlson, even if I knew he was going to be taken to the cleaners.
