Sean Gunn, an actor originally from Manchester, Missouri, playing for Women for Women International

Andy’s Pre-Game Thoughts:
Our third and last semifinal in the 2025 Celebrity Jeopardy tournament is between Mina Kimes, Sean Gunn, and Dave Friedberg. All three of our players had more than 30 correct responses in their respective quarterfinals—I am expecting to see a strongly-contested semifinal in this one. The winner goes in to face off against W. Kamau Bell and Robin Thede in the final next Wednesday evening.
As a reminder, tonight’s game airs at 9:00 (8:00 Central) on ABC in the United States and CTV2 in Canada.
