This Is (Every Star Wars–Themed Question From) Jeopardy!

Photo-Illustration: Vulture and Photo by Amanda Edwards/Getty Images

Ever since the current syndicated run of Jeopardy! began in 1984, the show’s question crew has been mining the Star Wars franchise for material. Many of the clues are mundane (“What is ’Star Wars?’” is an oft-repeated solution), but a good portion are fascinating (Insect names! Obscure dialects!), letting casual fans and obsessives alike get in on the action. With help from the frighteningly thorough J! Archive library of questions, we’ve rounded up all* of the times Alex Trebek has challenged contestants to respond in the form of a question about the Star Wars universe. You can toggle between categories below, and then click the clues to see the answers.

*Our methodology involved searching J! Archive using all the Star Wars–themed keywords we could summon to mind. Being that the J! Archive archive and Star Wars universe are both vast, we may have missed a couple. If we did: (a) It’s astounding that you noticed, and (b) Please let us know in the comments so we can update.
