Ken spilled the beans on the Jeopardy! streaming news when he reportedly replied to a behind-the-scenes question from a source.
“It is happening, indeed,” Ken confirmed concerning Jeopardy! arriving on streamers, explaining that it be coming in “early 2025.” For years, Jeopardy! fans have been begging for the show to be available on streaming services.

While Jeopardy! reruns still aired on Pluto TV on a separate channel 24/7, all of the episodes weren’t available. Only particular past episodes were watchable, leaving those who wanted to binge-watch all 41 seasons out of luck. The Jeopardy! franchise is expanding in the digital sphere as it introduces its spinoff Pop Culture Jeopardy! exclusively on Amazon Prime Video.
Pop Culture Jeopardy! is the first time that a Jeopardy! show has been created solely for a top 5 streaming service. All-in-all a lot of changes are happening with Jeopardy! this year.
Early last month it was revealed that the Jeopardy! set was going to get a complete makeover as it would receive a high-tech update. Some of the changes included getting rid of individual monitors, and replacing them with an electronic screen. Much like Wheel of Fortune’s refurbished puzzle board.
On top of that, the game board now shows all 60 clues, six categories, and dollar amounts. Although the renovated Jeopardy! set was much more glamorous, many viewers believed there was still some improvement that could still be made to it. The changes have been discussed online since they were debuted on Jeopardy!’s October 14th episode.
In a Reddit thread, one Jeopardy! superfan listed the tweaks that producers should make to enhance the set further.
“With the recent set modifications on October 14 (newly revamped game board, golden arches replaced with circular outlines, new FJ! monitor), here are my ideas for a future set revamp,” the Redditor wrote on the platform. “If we don’t get an entirely brand new set, here are some modifications I would like to see.”
