Jeopardy! is all set to return with a new episode on Wednesday, May 31, 2023. This episode will see yet another new champion, something that has been quite common over the entire 39th season. Unlike the previous season of the game show, this one has seen contestants significantly struggle to hold on longer. Not only has this season not seen any insane streaks, but it has also not seen regular intervals of strong streaks. This changed in the past couple of weeks with two contestants, Ben Chan, and Hannah Wilson, but the show seems to be back to its low-scoring ways.

In the upcoming episode of the game show, freshly crowned champion Ilhana Redzovic, an investment associate from Chicago, Illinois, will face off against Kyle Marshall, a library branch manager from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, and Lisa Gargiulo, a middle school English teacher from Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania. Unlike the previous champion Diandra, Ilhana Redzovic has done pretty well on her first day, earning $20,400 in the process. She will hope to build on this in the upcoming days.

Jeopardy! is one of the most renowned game shows in the world. This is both because of its long, long run and its intriguing format. The show has been around since the early 1960s and has made itself a household name over the period. It is best known for its unique nature, but the final round is also a major reason for the game show's popularity.

The final round of Jeopardy! has many elements that make it stand out from the competition. But most importantly, it allows viewers to participate from the comfort of their respective homes. Viewers can do this 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 loyal fans of the show.

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