How Does Jeopardy! Work?

Jeopardy! is a half-hour quiz show with a unique answer-and-question format.

Instead of being given questions, as in most quiz competitions, contestants are given general knowledge clues in the form of answers. Players must then attempt to identify the person, place, thing, or idea that the clue describes. They need to then phrase each response in the form of a question.

The show originally ran from 1964 to 1979 with Art Fleming as host but it wasn't until 1984 that the daily syndicated version began with Alex Trebek at the helm.

Trebek, who had hosted the show for 37 seasons, died in November 2020 after battling Stage IV pancreatic cancer.

Jeopardy! returns on September 12.
