In 2019, Jeopardy! held the All-Star Games, in which eighteen former champions were put into six groups of three, led by six team captains. Rutter once again prevailed over Jennings, winning the $1,000,000 top prize and reclaiming the game show record. Both face off in the two-day finals against Roger Craig. Then in 2014, Jennings and Rutter were once again invited back for the Battle of the Decades tournament (which was held in honor of the show's 30th anniversary season). But because the match was an exhibition, it didn't count towards show records. Both finish in second and third place, respectively. In 2011, Jennings and Rutter returned to the stage to face off in a two-day exhibition match against the IBM supercomputer Watson. Rutter ultimately prevailed in the finals, winning the $2,000,000 top prize and surpassing Jennings as the biggest game show money winner. In the three-day finals, Jennings matched with Brad Rutter and Jerome Vered. The event lasted from February to May 2005. Because of his accomplishments, the producers elected to hold the Ultimate Tournament of Champions featuring 145 former notable champions to try and compete with Jennings, who was an automatic finalist. He also tied the previous record of $52,000, set by Brian Weikle the year before, three times.Īt the time of his original run, Jennings became the highest money winner on a game show. On his 38th game (aired July 23, 2004, also the Season 20 finale), Jennings set a new one day record with $75,000. His original run lasted from June 2 to Novemwhen he was defeated by Nancy Zerg (who was also defeated the next day) on his 75th appearance. He is best known for winning 74 consecutive games on Jeopardy!, where he accumulated $2,522,700.
