Who Won Celebrity Jeopardy? Who is Crowns New Champion?
The star winner of “Celebrity Jeopardy” has changed. Ike Barinholtz, an actor, won the show in 2023 after beating Patton Oswalt and Wil Wheaton in Thursday’s season finale. Barinholtz won the ultimate prize of $1 million, with the proceeds going to the Hollygrove Program at Pacific Clinic.
The “Mindy Project” star edged Oswalt by $1 in the thrilling Final Jeopardy! Round. Oswalt and Barinholtz could double their scores after getting many daily doubles during the game. Oswalt received a grant of $250,000 to help Alice’s Kids, and Wheaton received a grant of $100,000 to perform for the National Women’s Law Center.
In the first three semifinal matches in October 2022, Barinholtz defeated the comedians Iliza Shlesinger and Simu Liu from the film “Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings” to advance to the title.
In the second semifinal round, which aired in November 2022, Wheaton faced off against actors John Michael Higgins and Joel Kim Booster.
In the third semifinal round last month, actor and comedian Patton Oswalt faced off against “Ted Lasso” star Brendan Hunt and actor Michael Cera.
