A spin-off of ‘Jeopardy!,’ ABC’s ‘Jeopardy! Masters’ is a reality game show created by Merv Griffin that pits together six recent champions of the parent show — Amy Schneider, Matt Amodio, Mattea Roach, Andrew He, Sam Buttrey, and James Holzhauer — as they go head-to-head against one another in a unique style. First and foremost, the former ‘Jeopardy!’ champions compete in round-robins style as the ten-hour-long episodes feature a couple of games each. Then, every combination of the six contestants is played, with all the players appearing in one game in each episode.
Hosted by Ken Jennings, the game series sees the participants compete against each other for a substantial grand prize and the title of the ultimate champion. Just like its parent show, ‘Jeopardy! Masters’ is shot indoors as the contest takes several twists and turns, keeping the viewers entertained through each episode. Hence, it is only natural for you to be curious about the actual filming locations.
