Emily Hampshire Looks to Raise Big Money for GLAAD on Celebrity Jeopardy!

Celebrity Jeopardy! returns to the airwaves Wednesday night, and the first match will feature queer actor Emily Hampshire of Schitt’s Creek fame raising money for GLAAD.

All the celebs will be playing for charity, hoping to win the tournament’s grand prize of $1 million for the organization of their choice.

Wednesday night’s game will be the first of seven quarterfinal matches. Hampshire will be up against Mark Duplass (The Morning Show) and Utkarsh Ambudkar (Ghosts). The second quarterfinal, to air October 4, will feature Brian Baumgartner (The Office), Lisa Ann Walter (Abbott Elementary), and Timothy Simons (Veep). Contestants for the third, out October 11, will be Christopher Meloni (Oz, Law & Order: Special Victims Unit), Sherri Shepherd (Sherri, The View), and sports commentator Katie Nolan. All shows will be on ABC at 8 p.m. Eastern/7 p.m. Central and will be available to stream on Hulu.

The Jeopardy! website doesn’t list contestants or dates for the next four quarterfinal games. But nine other contestants are known so far, although not when they’ll be on, USA Today reports on its For the Win blog. They are Dulé Hill, known for The West Wing and Psych; Adam Rodriguez of CSI: Miami and the Magic Mike films; Melissa Fumero (Brooklyn Nine-Nine); Mira Sorvino (American Crime Story, Mighty Aphrodite); Peter Facinelli (God Save the Queens, the Twilight films); sports broadcaster Peter Schrager; former NBA player Shane Battier; Sheryl Underwood (The Talk); and Steven Weber (Chicago Med, Wings).

The winners of the quarterfinals will compete in three semifinals, followed by a final round.

Celebrity Jeopardy! will include some new features that may be incorporated into the regular show, showrunner Michael Davies said recently on the Inside Jeopardy! podcast. “Sometimes the show moves so fast that you lose track of the category we’re in… so we’ve tried a new thing,” he said. “I’m not gonna try to describe it too much because … when you see it, you’ll instantly understand, but it’s a way that you get to focus much more on the individual categories every single time that a category is being chosen.”
