Jeopardy! fans spot subtle, unannounced set change after show reveals big streaming news

Sony made a new agreement with Hulu and Peacock in a landmark deal

Just a day after a landmark deal was announced, it seems some changes have already been made to Jeopardy!

One viewer took to Reddit as they noticed that the sign behind the studio audience was subtly altered.

The thread on the fan forum platform was titled: “Did anybody notice the Jeopardy sign change from Friday’s game?”

One viewer replied: “Looks like the hanging light fixtures are gone as well. Too bad – they subtly echoed the set and I thought they looked really cool, especially in person.”

As another noted: “I noticed that for Masters the Jeopardy sign was the same as the 2nd photo, and was wondering if/when we’ll see it appear in Syndication. Guess I’ve got the answer now!”

This comes after it was announced that both Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune will be available to stream the day after they air on TV.

As part of a huge new deal, Sony Pictures Television will allow Hulu and Peacock to show the hit game shows on their services from the fall.

The streaming deal is separate to the syndication row Sony is currently involved in with CBS, which allows local stations to screen episodes.

Sony sued CBS for allegedly breaching their deal and attempting to syndicate the show abroad as the two entertainment giants are currently embroiled in a legal wrangle.

The U.S. Sun previously revealed Jeopardy! continues to be one of America’s favorite gameshows among viewers.

Ken Jennings took over the hosting duties from the show in 2022.

According to Nielsen, Jeopardy! pulled a solid 8,902,000 viewers to the show in early March.

Wheel of Fortune – hosted by Ryan Seacrest – trailed slightly behind in the number two spot with 8,477,000 viewers.

In third came Family Feud with 7,218,000 fans.
