Celebrity Jeopardy! debuted on October 26, 1992. It features notable individuals as contestants competing for charitable organizations of their choice (or, in the cases of public officials, relevant charities chosen by the Jeopardy! production staff). The tradition of distinctive Jeopardy! matches featuring celebrity contestants goes back to the original NBC series, which featured appearances by such notables as Rod Sterling, Bill Cullen, Art James, and Peter Marshall.
On the Trebek version, Celebrity Jeopardy! has traditionally been broadcast annually as a week-long event, and on occasion, there has been a specific version of this event, called Power Players Week; it features personalities in politics and journalism. In the regular games, in which a player finishing the Double Jeopardy! round with a zero/negative score is disqualified from playing the Final Jeopardy! round, Celebrity Jeopardy! instead grants players a given positive score with which to wager for the final round. Since its debut, Celebrity Jeopardy! has featured over 200 celebrity contestants, including Anderson Cooper, Lauren Graham, Jodie Foster, Ashton Kutcher, Nathan Lane, Chris Matthews, Harry Connick, Jr., Neil Patrick Harris, Lynn Redgrave, LeVar Burton, Andy Richter, David Duchovny, Wayne Brady, Star Jones, Jane Seymour, Jason Alexander, Regis Philbin, Pat Sajak, Sam Waterston, Mike Piazza, Larry King, Buzz Aldrin, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Tom Clancy, Kirsten Dunst, Naomi Judd, Kelsey Grammer, Meredith Vieira, Robert Guillaume, Rosie O'Donnell, Sandy Duncan, Charles Shaughnessy, Norman Schwarzkopf, Jr., Stephen King, and Carol Burnett. The last celebrity week so far to date got held in May 2015, and in May 2016, the last Power Players Week so far to date took place at the DAR Constitution Hall in Washington, D.C., which also took place in November 1997, May 2004, and May 2012 respectively.
A new Celebrity Jeopardy! primetime tournament premiered on September 25, 2022 on ABC hosted by Mayim Bialik. Plus it includes the all new Triple Jeopardy! round with triple the dollars ($300-$1,500 (Board Total: $27,000)) and three Daily Doubles. To accommodate this, the original clue values of $100-$500 for the Jeopardy! round (Total: $9,000) and $200-$1,000 for the Double Jeopardy! round (Total: $18,000) make their return. In 2023, Ken Jennings is hosting this tournament because of Mayim Bialik's having stepped down from the show due to the 2023 Writers Guild of America strike.
