You can catch the first full episode, featuring Monét X Change, Rebecca Black and Brennan Lee Mulligan, below.
Sony Pictures Television is bringing one of its most famous brands to YouTube. This newest version of the show will embrace its platform. Hosted by Ken Jennings, Jeopardy! YouTube Edition will see online creators and YouTubers playing for their favorite charities. As mentioned, the first show, which debuted on March 31 at 9PM EST, saw drag performer and The Traitors star Monét X Change playing for GLAAD against Rebecca Black of “Friday” fame and Dimension20’s Brennan Lee Mulligan. They will both play for The Trevor Project.

They will compete across a dynamic range of clues that blend the classic format and style of Jeopardy! with the energy of internet culture with categories spanning YouTube-inspired topics—from viral trends to the rich 20+ year history of the platform—along with custom video clues featuring notable YouTube talent.
“Jeopardy! is one of the most successful and enduring brands in television history, with decades of cultural relevance and a loyal audience” said Suzanne Prete, President, Game Shows, Sony Pictures Television, in a press release. “As we bring our YouTube strategy to life, we’re incredibly excited to build on that legacy while connecting with new audiences in a way that feels fresh, interactive, and native to the platform.”
Okay, now we get it. It’s not that anyone necessarily needs yet another Jeopardy! spinoff. It’s that the terminally online need their own chance to shine.
We’re going to be so good at this one.
