Today’s Final Jeopardy! answer: Tuesday, February 7, 2023

Jeopardy! is all set to return with an all-new episode on Tuesday, February 7, 2023, bringing back the brilliant Matthew Marcus, who has finally managed to give the fans of the game show some much-needed thrills after weeks of constant rotation. This is also in sharp contrast to the previous season, which saw some juggernauts like Mattea Roach, Matt Amodio, and Amy Schneider, among many others. So far, the new season has only had two standout contestants in the form of Ray Lalonde and Cris Pannullo.

In the upcoming round of Jeopardy!, Matthew Marcus, a software developer from Portland, Oregon, will face off against Carolyn Shivers, an associate professor from Grand Island, New York, and Greg Snyder, a call center manager from Las Vegas, Nevada. With $87,400 to his name in just three days of his reign, it is hard not to take Marcus seriously. Marcus may also prove to be the champion most fans of the game show have been waiting for this season.
