Season 40 Jeopardy! contestants - where they're from

The main table includes all players who made their first appearance on Jeopardy! in 2023-24. Thus, they exclude:

• Lucas Partridge, the reigning regular play champion at the end of season 39
• The twenty-seven competitors in the Season 37 Second Chance Competition, all of whom appeared first in that season
• The ??? competitors in the Season 37/38 Champions Wildcard, all of whom appeared first one of those two seasons

So, actually, there's not going to be a "main table" for a while. After the S37 Second Chance & S37/S38 Champions Wildcard which open the season, Jeopardy! intends to contest its entire "postseason" as originally set out. (Well, it will do so if the WGA strike is resolved by then.) That is, a Second Chance and Champions Wildcard from Season 39, followed by a Tournament of Champions. Regular play is almost certainly not going to resume until some time in 2024.

What's here:

• Season 37 Second Chance

Ranks represent market size estimates for 2022–23; I'll update them if and when I can find that information.

Updated through Week 3 of Season 40 (2023-09-29), including "separate" table for Season 37 Second Chance.
