ABC has scheduled the return of its popular game shows, including Pat Sajak’s final episodes hosting Celebrity Wheel of Fortune and the third annual Jeopardy! Masters tournament. The game show block kicks off Wednesday, April 30th, with episodes available next day on Hulu.
Here’s the Lowdown: Celebrity Wheel of Fortune, featuring Pat Sajak’s last appearances as host alongside Vanna White, airs April 30th at 8:00 PM EDT. Celebrities like Josh Gad, Tiffany Haddish, Regina Hall, and Rainn Wilson will compete for charity. Immediately following at 9:00 PM EDT is the premiere of the 2025 Jeopardy! Masters tournament, hosted by Ken Jennings.
What This Means Now: Viewers have a final chance to see Sajak helm Wheel before his retirement. The Jeopardy! Masters tournament is expanding its lineup, featuring reigning champ Victoria Groce, finalist Yogesh Raut, TOC winner Neilesh Vinjamuri, plus Matt Amodio, Roger Craig, Juveria Zaheer, Adriana Harmeyer, Isaac Hirsch, and the notable return of Brad Rutter, one of the game’s biggest winners, competing for a $500,000 prize.
The Bigger Picture: This programming marks a transition point for Wheel of Fortune as Sajak concludes his long tenure. Simultaneously, Jeopardy! Masters solidifies its status as a major event by assembling an expanded field of elite players, including Rutter’s return to the Alex Trebek Stage for the first time since 2020, creating a highly competitive environment for quiz fans.
