Though the cast has yet to be announced, eagle-eyed fans have figured out two stars who may compete on the show’s third season.

Workaholics star Blake Anderson revealed on This is Important podcast in October that he will be a contestant on the show.

Blake said on the episode that he would do well with a “geography” category and claimed the spinoff gives easier questions than the original show.

He insisted he is “going to surprise” viewers.

One fan wrote on Reddit of the casting, “I legit thought that was a joke when I heard it on the podcast.

“I love that man but I don’t have the highest hopes for him haha.”

A second commented, “I thought so too!

“But he’s been keeping up the bit and even answered with a question on a recent episode which made me believe.”

Nobody Wants This actress Jackie Tohn also said she was going to film for Celebrity Jeopardy! on the podcast Go Fact Yourself.

One fan boasted, “I think she will do quite well.”

A second viewer wrote of the names, “If the two names mentioned are accurate, it’ll be another season that will leave viewers scratching their head and asking “who?’”

Jeopardy! Universe

Jeopardy! first aired in 1964 until 1975. Then the nighttime version began in 1974. Since then, many spinoffs of the game show have emerged. Here they all are:

Jeopardy! – (syndicated) 1974 to present, weekdays on ABC at 7 pm ET.

Tournament of Champions – 1984 to present, features the top champions who have appeared on the show since the last tournament.

Second Chance Tournament – 2022 to present features hand-selected non-winners from the season prior, where the prize is entry into Champions Wildcard.

Champions Wildcard – 2023 to present, features all one, two and three-day champions from the season prior worth entry into the Tournament of Champions.

Jeopardy! Invitational Tournament (syndication) – 2023 to present, features past greats invited by producers to vie for a slot in Masters.

Jeopardy! Masters (primetime) – 2023 to present, features the six highest-ranked Jeopardy! champions competing against each other.

Pop Culture Jeopardy (streaming) – 2024 to present, will feature teams of three tasked with pop culture trivia on Amazon Prime, hosted by Colin Jost, airdate TBD

Jeopardy! has done away with specialized tournaments like its College Tournaments, Kids Week, and Professor’s Tournament to gear towards a more sports-like model, with Masters being the top of the Jeopardy pyramid.

Other versions of Jeopardy! have fizzled out throughout the years as well, like Sports Jeopardy!.
