How will Pop Culture Jeopardy! work?
As with traditional Jeopardy!, the spinoff will follow a "answer-and-question" format. But contestants will play in teams of three and categories will focus on pop-culture-centric topics like alternative rock, The Avengers, Broadway and, yes, Zendaya.
“Pop Culture Jeopardy! is its own cultural moment, marking the first time the iconic franchise will premiere exclusively on a streaming service,” Lauren Anderson, head of AVOD originals unscripted and targeted programming, Amazon MGM Studios, said in a press release. “With a team-based approach and pop-culture focus, our global Prime Video customers will exclusively experience this innovative spin on Jeopardy! while testing their knowledge on topics that both define and transcend generations.”
