Jeopardy! will air another fresh episode tonight. Today's episode airs game 134 of season 41 and will feature a tough competition between three very seasoned players who have proven themselves and come so far in the game.
Yesterday's game saw James Corson make his second win against Brian and Kristen. He has won $70,000 in two wins, which should be enough to at least see him into Champions Wildcard. But he would need another victory or two in order to get himself into the Tournament of Champions. James will face off against Liz Engelhardt and Jack Goldfisher in today's game, which will mark an important moment in the game show for him.
Jeopardy!, created by Merv Griffin in 1964, is a game show on television that brings a twist to the pattern of traditional quiz competitions. Here, the conventional question-and-answer format is reversed, and instead, participants are given a bunch of clues from which they have to identify an answer. The final answer is to be given in the format of a question.

Jeopardy! final solution: Thursday, March 13, 2025
The clue and correct response for today's game are as follows:
Clue: This game inaugurated a craze that “scandalized the puritanical and drove chiropractors wild with delight.”
Solution: What is Twister?
Although Twister has recently gained a lot of attention, in 1966, there were discussions going on to pull the game off the shelves. This was out of fear that it was a little inappropriate. It was then that the publicists of Milton Bradley managed to get a copy of the game to Johnny Carson and The Tonight Show.
On May 3, 1966, Carson and Eva Gabor played the game on late-night television, which made the audience go wild as there were scenes of the two stars climbing over each other while playing the game. This revived the popularity of the game, and it started flying off the shelves. Twister managed to sell more than three million copies over the next year.
