There are three things guaranteed in the world today: Death, taxes, and Jeopardy! being on. Believe it or not, the iconic game show has been on the air for over 60 years (though the modern incarnation we know and love technically debuted in 1984). Under the watchful eye of Ken Jennings (who himself was a record-breaking champion), Jeopardy! puts three people's trivia skills and reflexes to the ultimate test. And so many of the greats to grace those podiums started by simply watching the show as it aired on weekdays, as millions have done for over half a century.Here's a spoiler-filled recap of who won Jeopardy! today, plus the answer to Final Jeopardy.

Final Jeopardy today was in the category "MOVIE MUSIC"
The clue: "The main theme heard in this movie uses a motif that's an alternating pattern of an E & an F, gradually becoming insistent."
The answer: "What is Jaws?"
Groen ended the week on a high note, but it was the closest he’s come this week to nearly losing it all.
Groen was ahead at the end of the DJ Round, with $24,200, as Strange trailed behind with $12,400, with Rebholz at $1,600.
All three contestants answered FJ correctly, as we’re less than a week away from Shark Week, but it was Strange’s wager that almost lost Groen the game. He bet $12,000, bringing his total to $24,400, while Groen only wagered $601, jumping to $24,801, $401 more than Strange, landing him in the top spot. Rebholz, meanwhile, wagered $600 and ended in third place with $2,200.
Groen will be back on Monday for attempt number 13.
