Jeopardy! is all set to return with a new episode on Friday, April 28, 2023. This new episode of the show will bring back another freshly-crowned champion to the fore. Interestingly, the 38th and 39th seasons have been completely contrasting, with the former seeing many great players on a regular basis. Fans are still waiting for a record-breaking champion this season.
In the upcoming round of the game show, Eric Anderson, an operations director from Brooklyn, New York, will defend his streak against Katherine Cohen, a grad student and museum worker from New York, New York, and Kevin Belle, a trail planner from Silver Spring, Maryland. Eric won $7,600 on his debut day, which is not considered a great amount but is more than the champions who preceded him this week.
Jeopardy! is one of the oldest game shows in the history of American television. After kicking off in the early 1960s, the game show developed rapidly to reach the masses across the globe. This was made possible by the game show's unconventional style and engaging nature, both of which have become synonymous with the show's appeal. Moreover, the final round of the show also plays a big part in this soaring popularity.

However, doing this every day can be quite a cumbersome task. To ease this, we have compiled the question, answer, and other relevant details from the upcoming episode below.
