More information about Final Jeopardy:

Dear Evan Hansen deals with a high school senior, Evan Hansen, who has severe social anxiety that inhibits his ability to make friends. After one of his classmates commits suicide, he concocts a lie to bring himself closer to the victim’s family.

At the 2017 Tony Awards, it won 6 awards, including Best Musical, and was nominated for three others.


Since Alex Trebek’s diagnosis of stage 4 pancreatic cancer, 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 the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network. To date, over $370 has been raised.)
