Only One ‘Jeopardy’ Contestant Makes It to Final Round, Gets Question Wrong (Video)

“This was not one of our greatest days,” host Alex Trebek said

This episode of the game show “Jeopardy” was one of the first in history to see only one contestant make it to the final round.

Answer: What is Wednesday’s episode?

In a “Jeopardy” moment that host Alex Trebek described as “not one of our greatest days,” two of the three competitors finished the Double Jeopardy round with a negative score, meaning they would not advance to Final Jeopardy.

As a result, Kristin Sausville — the returning champion — found herself all alone on stage with Trebek.

“Kristin, I think you’re going to win,” Trebek said.

Still, it was close, since Sausville still had to contend with a question regarding FDR and the Social Security Administration.
