Jeopardy! is all set to return with a new episode on Tuesday, August 27, 2024, bringing back another exciting round from the game show's 40th season. Of course, these are all encore episodes as the show has already concluded a couple of weeks back.

The new season will not start before September, leaving this time for the encore presentations, which will be exciting enough, given how good the entire season was. This time of the year gives a great opportunity for fans to sharpen their trivia skills while also catching up on some of the best episodes from the season that just ended.

In the upcoming round of the game show, Sam Kavanaugh, an educator from Minneapolis, Minnesota, will face off against Chuck Forrest, a lawyer from Marino, Italy, and Monica Thieu, a postdoctoral scientist from Atlanta, Georgia. This is the 144th game from the 40th season. Chuck Forrest, who will appear in this round, is one of the all-time greatest in the show, and this means it will be a round worth watching for any trivia fan.

Jeopardy! is one of the most famous game shows on American television. Since it began airing in 1964, the game show has managed to outdo all its competitors and has remained in the top spot. Its engaging nature and offbeat format are important factors that contribute to this. Moreover, the final round of the game show also plays a key part in this ever-growing popularity.
