Isaac has been on Jeopardy since Wednesday, July 3, and will continue his reign on Monday’s game.

Since its inception, Isaac has raised an incredible $70,186.

On Wednesday night’s game, Isaac revealed that his father, Steven, was a contestant during Season 2 in 1985 with former host Alex Trebek.

Unfortunately for Steven, he lost his first game.

Isaac revealed that he and his family still joke about it: “I play him ‘I Lost on Jeopardy!’ [and say] ‘It’s about you, dad!'”

ONE MORE CHANCE

In Jeopardy’s recent Instagram post, they shared video of Isaac and host Ken Jennings, 50, talking about losing Steven.

In a twist, Steven shared a comment.

He said, “If Ken Jennings keeps mentioning that I lost on Jeopardy, I want another chance!

“Bring me back for another chance to win!”

In the replies, one fan shouted: “Second chance! Second chance!”

WHO WHAT USES

Jeopardy champion Isaac is no stranger to the world of game shows, having appeared on other fan-favorite shows.

In 2023, he appeared on – and won – The Chase.

He also appeared on Who Wants to Be a Millionaire in 2017.

Danger! guest hosts

Since Jeopardy! host Alex Trebek died in November 2020, the beloved game show has continued with several guest hosts in 2021 to the present day:

However, one of the previous shows had a strict dress code, according to Isaac.

In an online Reddit forum, the TV star spilled the tea.

Isaac responded to a fan about the camouflage shirt he wore on Thursday night’s episode, which sparked more comments.

A fan asked in the chat room about how familiar Isaac looked, then remembered him from The Chase.

“They didn’t let me dress like I really am,” he revealed.

Meanwhile, Isaac showed off his incredible fashion sense while competing on Jeopardy.

Fans can watch their fourth game on Monday at 7pm – check local listings.
