Jeopardy! is all set to return with a new episode on Wednesday, June 19, 2024, bringing back another exciting episode of the popular game show. Currently, in its 40th season, the show happens to be on one of its greatest runs with Adriana Harmeyer still winning game after game.

The past few weeks have arguably been the greatest the game show has been in over two years. This is especially interesting as the show started very slowly this year due to the WGA strike that was still ongoing when season 40 started.

In the upcoming round of the game show, Adriana Harmeyer will play her 16th game after a landmark achievement last night. Harmeyer, an archivist from West Lafayette, Indiana has won 15 games in a row now and does not look like slowing down. In the upcoming round of the game show, the reigning champion will take on Drew Basile, a graduate student from Birmingham, Michigan, and Tekla Sauter, a nonprofit strategist from Chicago, Illinois. Harmeyer currently has $349,600 to her name. She remains right behind Ray Lalonde in the list of highest-earning participants from regular play.

Jeopardy! is one of the oldest and most renowned game shows in the history of American television. It began airing in the early 1960s and has since then continued to entertain fans across the globe with its offbeat format and engaging nature. These elements of the game show have also earned it a cult fanbase that stretches across the globe. Moreover, the final round of the game show also plays a huge part in this ever-growing popularity.

The final round of Jeopardy! has many elements that make it stand out. This includes the provision for viewer participation. Viewers can participate by guessing the correct answer to the final question ahead of the episode's air time. Over the years, this has become a common practice for the fans of the game show.

However, as this can still be a complicated process, we have compiled the question, answer, and other relevant details from the upcoming episode below. Scroll on.
