Jeopardy! is all set to return with a new episode on Friday, May 19, 2023. The game show has suddenly caught some much-needed momentum in the past two weeks with two standout contestants, Hannah Wilson, and Ben Chan, the latter still playing, who impressed viewers with their brilliant streaks. Ben Chan is arguably one of the strongest contestants the game show has seen in a long time. He won his seventh game yesterday and did so in fantastic fashion. Chan now has seven runaways in seven games, a stat only matched by Chuck Forrest.
In the upcoming episode of the game show, Ben Chan, a philosophy professor from Green Bay, Wisconsin, will defend his exceptional streak against Erica Johnson, a stay-at-home mom from Greenbelt, Maryland, and Chris Hammer, a teacher from McKinney, Texas. He has already won $213,000, and with his form, he will look forward to winning much more in the coming days.
Jeopardy! is one of the most popular game shows of all time. It began in the early 1960s and has since then managed to develop a strong grip on the game show market. This is mainly because of the trivia-based show's engaging nature and offbeat format, things that have become a recognizable signature around the world. Additionally, the final round also plays an important part in the game show's popularity.
Apart from the many challenges that the final round poses for the participants, it allows viewers to participate from the comfort of their homes. Viewers can do this by guessing the correct answer to the final question ahead of the episode's air time. Over the years, this has become a common practice for the fans of the game show. However, this can still be quite a cumbersome process. To ease this, we have compiled the question, answer, and other relevant details from the upcoming episode below.
