Jeopardy! is one of the oldest game shows on television, originally starting in 1964. It has since then established a grip on game show viewers with its engaging and offbeat format.
This American game show is played between three contestants and relies heavily on trivia skills and general knowledge. The offbeat final round is also a big factor in the show's soaring popularity.

However, this can often be a complicated process. To help this out, we have compiled the question, answer, and other relevant details from the upcoming episode below.
