'Jeopardy' G.O.A.T.S. join forces for new ABC quiz show 'The Chase'

"Jeopardy" trivia titans James Holzhauer, Ken Jennings and Brad Rutter are returning to ABC's game show category with a new primetime program called "The Chase," the network announced Monday.

The trio behind the ratings beast "Jeopardy! The Greatest of All Time" will help headline the new shiny-floor quiz show along with host Sara Haines, the TV journalist known for her work on "Good Morning America" and "The View," ABC said.

Adapted from a British format of the same name, "The Chase" will pit contestants against the "ruthless" quiz masters trying to strip them of their cash prizes.

"Each hour-long episode is a fast-paced battle of brain power, where contestants are challenged to think faster than they ever thought possible to answer up to 166 questions across all topics," ABC said Monday.

"The boys are back in town," Jennings said in a Twitter post linked to the news.

"Easily the biggest news story of the week," joked Holzhauer in his own tweet Monday, a day before the U.S. presidential election.
