Jeopardy! Masters 2024 sees six of the best Jeopardy! players of all time compete head to head in a series of games to determine who is the Jeopardy! Master. Last year's defending champ, James Holzhauer, and the first two runner-ups, Mattea Roach and Matt Amodio, return for this new tournament. The remaining three spots were filled out by the 2024 Tournament of Champion winner Yogesh Raut and the inaugural Jeopardy! Invitational Tournament champ Victoria Groce, as well as a producer's pick, which ended up being Amy Schneider, who was part of the first Jeopardy! Masters tournament and came in second in the JIT.
Airing most Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays in May at 8 pm ET/PT, here is how you can tune in to watch Jeopardy! Masters 2024.

ABC is available to anyone with a traditional pay-TV subscription, a TV antenna that receives local station signals or a live TV streaming service like Fubo, Hulu with Live TV, Sling TV (in select markets) and YouTube TV. If you're not able to watch it live on ABC, subscribers of the above services can watch Jeopardy! Masters on-demand on ABC.com.

Consumers can subscribe to Hulu as a standalone service, with live TV via the appropriately named Hulu with Live TV service or bundling it with Disney Plus (and possibly ESPN Plus) as part of the Disney Bundle.
