Correct response: Who is Neil Simon?
More information about Final Jeopardy:
American playwright Neil Simon, who had a Broadway theatre named after him in 1983, received his Oscar nominations for Best Adapted Screenplay (The Odd Couple, The Sunshine Boys, and California Suite), and for Best Original Screenplay (The Goodbye Girl). His four Tony Awards were for The Odd Couple, a special award in 1975, Biloxi Blues, and Lost In Yonkers (the latter also won him the 1991 Pulitzer Prize for Drama).
Since Alex Trebek’s diagnosis of stage 4 pancreatic cancer on Wednesday, many community members have been raising money. The Jeopardy! Fan Online Store is as well! All proceeds from any “Keep The Faith And We’ll Win” shirt sold will be donated to Alex Trebek’s preferred charity. (The de facto alumni association is currently inquiring with the show in order to determine Alex Trebek’s preferred charity; this will be updated when that has been determined.)
In order to redesign our merchandise area to serve you better in 2026, all merchandise sales have been temporarily taken offline. Look for a return in late 2026! All previous orders will still be supported.

Tournament of Champions projections:
With a projected 119 regular-play games to go prior to the Tournament of Champions cutoff, after 500,000 simulations, our model shows:
An average of 3.3391 5+-time champions (standard deviation 1.5289).
An average of 6.0515 4+-time champions (standard deviation 1.8901).
An early cutoff took place 2.448% of the time (or a 5-game winner will be left out).
Elaine Wilson qualified 1.938% of the time.
Eric R. Backes qualified 90.093% of the time.
Anneke Garcia qualified 75.400% of the time.
Dave Leffler qualified 52.046% of the time.
Jonathan Dinerstein qualified 25.213% of the time.
Alex Schmidt qualified 6.609% of the time.
John Presloid qualified 0.975% of the time.
Andy’s Thoughts:
With Sean Thompson beating Scott by just under six weeks, Scott is believed to be the second alumnus of CBC’s SmartAsk! to appear on Jeopardy!.
- If a player fails to phrase in the form of a question, Alex and the judges will tell us. Alex literally has a direct link to the contestant audio. As do the judges. We at home have TV speakers. It is inappropriate to expect satisfaction based on low-quality audio.
- Effective in first on buzzer stats: Elaine 26.92% (14/52), Conor 36.54% (19/52), Scott 36.54% (19/52).
