S2·E111 Show #371

Episode recap

The episode identified as season 2, episode 111 (show #371) of the 1984 version of Jeopardy! presented three new competitors: Susan Fox‑Davis, Steve Lawson and Paul Rouffa. The program followed the established format of the long‑running American quiz show created by Merv Griffin, in which contestants are given general‑knowledge clues phrased as answers and must respond in the form of a question. The competition unfolded in the customary three‑round structure: the initial Jeopardy! round, the Double Jeopardy! round, and the concluding Final Jeopardy! round. Throughout the broadcast, Alex Trebek served as the host, guiding the contestants through each category and clue, while Johnny Gilbert provided the familiar opening and closing announcements. As with every installment of the series, the three participants selected clues from a board organized by thematic categories, wagered their accumulated totals in Double Jeopardy!, and faced a single, high‑stakes clue in Final Jeopardy! The episode adhered to the show’s standard rules, allowing each player to buzz in after the clue was read and to phrase their response as a question in order to earn or lose money. No additional information about the specific categories, clue values, or final scores is supplied in the available sources. The broadcast therefore represents a typical example of the series’ format, showcasing the competitive interplay among Susan Fox‑Davis, Steve Lawson and Paul Rouffa under the direction of Trebek and the narration of Gilbert, and contributing to the ongoing record of Jeopardy! as America’s favorite quiz show.
