I think I heard that will start up in December.
ETA: I found this:
Unless the show decides to wait until the new year, fresh clues and post-strike episodes could begin as soon as Tuesday, December 19. The Season 39 “postseason” will begin at that point before segueing to kick off Season 40. The postseason is comprised of Season 39 Second Chance, Season 39 Champions Wildcard, and the Tournament of Champions.
