The upcoming round of Jeopardy! is all set to air on Tuesday, November 22, 2022. This is the show's first regular episode in a long time. The Tournament of Champions took place over the last few weeks, and it culminated in the previous episode with Amy Schneider's third and final victory. The upcoming episode will see the continuation of Chris Panullo's streak, who was on an excellent run before the regular show went on a break.

This is Pannullo's twelfth game, and he appears to be on track to continue the brilliant streak he began a long time ago.

Widely considered one of the greatest game shows of all time, Jeopardy! dates back to the early 1960s. Over the many years of its existence, it has become one of the most decorated game shows in the country and around the world. A lot of credit for this goes to the unique format and offbeat nature of the show. Additionally, the final round also provides some much-needed boost to its growing popularity.

But what makes it truly unique is that it allows viewers from around the world to be a part of the action from the comfort of their homes. Viewers can do this by guessing the correct answer to the final question ahead of the episode's airtime.
