Only die-hard Jeopardy! fans know that an entire week’s worth of episodes are filmed in just one day. Don’t worry if you were in the dark…we were too! The contestants, and the host, have to change into 5 different outfits throughout filming. This creates the illusion of time passing…pretty smart!

Tough Testing

Contestants on Jeopardy! go through a world-wind of tests before being chosen for the show. First, there is an online test that is required in order to apply. Can you believe that over 300,000 people take it each year?! Staff claim that only around 100,000 actually complete the test in the given time, and only 3,000 are invited into the studio for a Live audition. Pretty competitive to say the least!
