Jeopardy! is all set to return with a new episode on Friday, July 12, 2024, bringing back another exciting episode from the game show's 40th season, which has entered another fascinating era with Isaac Hirsch dominating proceedings.
The game show started out rather slow this year, with the WGA strike ongoing when it began. But over the last couple of months, it has compensated entirely with contestants like Adriana Harmeyer and Drew Basille. Now, Hirsh is on his way to another big record.
In the upcoming episode of the game show, Isaac Hirsch, a customer support team lead from Burbank, California, will play his eighth game against newcomers Mike Ferguson, a chemistry professor from Edmond, Oklahoma and Ashley Weaver, an attorney from Lakewood, Ohio.
