Today's Final Jeopardy! answer: Monday, April 7, 2025
Jeopardy! is all set to return with a new episode on Monday, April 7, 2025, bringing back another exciting episode from the game show's 41st season, which is nearing its final few months. The contestants in this season have been interesting so far, and carrying the torch forward is Mike Dawson, who is set to return in the upcoming game after quite a great win in the previous round.
In the upcoming round of the game show, Erin Li, a psychiatrist from Queens, New York, and Taylor Mattox, an IT specialist from Columbus, Ohio, are going to face off against Mike Dawson, a technology manager from Portland, Oregon.
Dawson's impressive start saw him win $21,601 on his very first day and he will try to keep up with that in the coming rounds.
It would not be wrong to say that the final round of the show is one of the primary reasons behind the age-old show's popularity.
Despite starting in 1964, the game show continues to maintain its consistency and charm in 2025.
One of the best parts of the final round is its ability to include viewers. Viewers can guess the answer to the final question ahead of the episode's air time, which has become a common practice for fans of the show, but it remains a long-drawn process.
To ease this, we have compiled the question, answer, and other relevant details from the upcoming episode below.
