With a new weekday, a new episode of Jeopardy! is all set to air. After a turbulent month, the game show is ready to resume regular episodes this month. The contest is more interesting because of Cris Pannullo, who is having one of the best runs in the game show's history. With his previous victory, he made it 18 in a row, putting him on par with some of the game show's greatest ever. If he wins another, he will equal the record set by Jason Zuffranieri and David Madden.

In the upcoming round, Cris Pannullo, a customer success operations manager from Ocean City, New Jersey, will face off against Rob Lamanna, a product manager from Whitby, Ontario, Canada, and Jeri Zulli, an English professor from East Setauket, New York. Most players should be terrified of Pannullo's trivia prowess by this point. He has accumulated $637,923 so far and appears to be on a roll.

Jeopardy! is a knowledge-based game that is popular for its offbeat format and engaging nature. With 39 seasons and seven decades under its belt, Jeopardy! is easily one of the most popular shows on American television right now. Another major reason for the show's popularity is its final round.

The final round of the show consists of many challenges that set it apart from the competition. But what makes it truly unique is that it allows viewers from around the world to be a part of the action from the comfort of their homes. Viewers can do this by guessing the correct answer to the final question ahead of the episode's airtime. However, as that can often be a tedious task, we have compiled every relevant detail, including the solution to the final question for the upcoming round below.
