Jeopardy! is set to return with a fresh episode on Monday, December 2, 2024, kicking off the final month of the year on a high note. A new champion emerged on the first day of the month as the game show progresses further in its 41st season. So far, this season has been tense and packed with drama. The upcoming round of the game show should not be much different either.

Jeopardy! is one of the oldest and most renowned game shows in American television history. It began airing in the early 1960s and has consistently entertained fans with its offbeat format and engaging nature. This has given the show a cult following that spans the globe. Its growing popularity is also partly due to the final round of the game show.
