There are other alternatives for passionate viewers who do not have access to the cable channels mentioned above. Here are 6 ways to watch Jeopardy! without cable.
Daytime Jeopardy! Timing
Daytime Jeopardy! consists of random Jeopardy! reruns you come across on your TV at random times during the day. It does not include new Jeopardy! episodes that usually air between 6 and 8 PM. The only downside of Daytime Jeopardy! is that it’s episodes you’ve already seen. On the plus side, you can look back on episodes you haven’t watched in a while. But don’t take too much pride in getting the questions right; you have an unfair advantage, after all!
Not all channels show Daytime Jeopardy!. There are some channels that show both Daytime Jeopardy! and regular episodes of Jeopardy!, as well as channels that only show one or the other. You can find information about Daytime Jeopardy! airing times and stations in the table!

Has Jeopardy! Changed Times Recently?
Jeopardy! hasn’t made any major changes to the show since the fall of 2022. Season 39 premiered without the late host Alex Trebek. Ken Jennings and Mayim Bialik took his place.
Right before that, in the summer of 2022, fans of the show noticed that WPXI-TV switched the time slots of Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune. A representative shared that the shows were switched to better match the rest of the country, where Wheel of Fortune usually precedes Jeopardy! in the evening. Turns out it wasn’t such a great conspiracy after all!
