What is inevitable for $500? A YouTube version of the popular syndicated game show Jeopardy.
The special will feature three YouTube creators and while it's not specificed, I'm assuming it will concentrate on computer and web related subjects. But that will be revealed when it comes to the site on March 31st.
And yes, Ken Jennings will be hosting the show. If it proves popular, expect there could be more. Jeopardy already has a YouTube channel, but this is the first time it will have a show made just for the site.

If you're not tired of the seemingly endless variety of "Jeopardys" (Pop Culture, Sports, Rock & Roll, Masters, Champions, Jeopardy U.K., Jeopardy Australia, etc. etc.) comes yet another extension of the franchise.
It's back on YouTube, after a single episode aired there in an attempt to reach a younger and non-TV watching audience. Now based on that one off show, they're about to do it again. Jeopardy YouTube will do a three episode series on the streaming service, featuring YouTube content creators answering in the form of a question behind their podiums. All the money won will be donated to charity.
And in keeping with today's short attenton spans, it will also be reduced in length.
"This version is a bit different as it only includes one round of Jeopardy!, interviews, and a Final Jeopardy question for a quick 20-minute episode."
It gets released to the web on Oct. 22nd, and you'll be able to watch it for free here.
