On the heels of Jeopardy!’s Tournament of Champions, America’s Favorite Quiz Show is coming to ABC prime time in a multi-, consecutive-night event, “Jeopardy! The Greatest of All Time,” premiering Tuesday, January 7 (8-9 p.m. EST). Hosted by Alex Trebek, “Jeopardy! The Greatest of All Time” is produced by Sony Pictures Television.

The Greatest of All Time.” The two non-winners will each receive $250,000.

“Based on their previous performances, these three are already the ‘greatest,’ but you can’t help wondering: Who is the best of the best?” Alex said.
