Here’s today’s Final Jeopardy (in the category American Rock Bands) for Friday, March 5, 2021 (Season 37, Game 115):
In 2020 their Greatest Hits, with an optimistic ’80s anthem, became only the third album to spend 600 weeks on the Billboard 200
(correct response beneath the contestants)
The Jeopardy! community is mourning the loss of Brayden Smith, who passed away on February 5. The Brayden Smith Memorial Fund has been established, dedicated to furthering the educational aspirations of Southern Nevada students.
Today’s contestants:
Ann Mazzaferro, a high school English & drama teacher from San Andreas, California
Laura Portwood-Stacer, an author & editor originally from Livonia, Michigan
Jim Cooper, a screenwriter from Pacific Palisades, California (1-day total: $17,300)
Andy’s Pregame Thoughts: Jim came back from a spot in the red to find his buzzer mojo in the Double Jeopardy! round and claim victory. He did have six incorrect responses, though—minimizing those will be his key to victory today.
PSA: The best way to keep COVID-19 at bay (and keep Jeopardy! producing new episodes) is for everybody to abide by physical distancing guidelines and when you are not able to do so, properly wear a mask. Ensure that your mask covers both your nose and your mouth.

Journey’s Greatest Hits album, buoyed by the strength of ’80s anthem “Don’t Stop Believing” (the bane of karaoke hosts worldwide) and other tracks, has spent very significant time on the Billboard 200. Later in the album, “Separate Ways (Worlds Apart)” served as my sign-off song for a time during my bar hosting days; to me, “Separate Ways” is a fitting song as well for the final episode of Mike Richards’ time hosting the show.
