What is very exciting news that will brighten up your day?

"Jeopardy!" legends Ken Jennings, James Holzhauer and Brad Rutter, who recently faced off in the quiz show's "Greatest of All Time" tournament, are returning to ABC for a new game, “The Chase.”

The network announced Monday that all three, who earned spots in game show history, will be part of the new show, to be hosted by "The View" co-host Sara Haines.

Holzhauer, Rutter and Jennings, who triumphed in January's GOAT tournament, will take turns performing the role of the Chaser for the series, in which "three competitors must pit their wits and face off against the Chaser, a ruthless quiz genius determined to stop them from winning cash prizes," ABC says. Per the network, "Each week, new contestants face-off against the Chasers in a battle of brain power, challenged to think faster than they ever thought possible."

No premiere date for the hourlong series has been announced.

Per Deadline, which first reported on the series in July, "The Chase" is inspired by the British game show that premiered in 2009, and will consist of nine initial episodes. An earlier American adaptation of the series premiered in 2013 on Game Show Network and aired for four seasons. Episodes from the first two seasons, hosted by Brooke Burns, are available on Netflix.
