This episode is another classic from the season, featuring the famed Amy Schneider, one of the greatest contestants the game show has ever seen. It is part of last season's Jeopardy Invitational Tournament.

It began airing in the early 1960s and has since continued to hold on to its charm over the many decades of dominance. The show has also seen a considerable rise in popularity during this time, primarily due to its offbeat format and engaging nature, which have become core elements.
