It’s kind of crazy how short Jeopardy's offseason is. Most game shows like Wheel of Fortune end their seasons in like the first or second week of June. Jeopardy runs new episodes til the very end of July, take one month off, then are back at it in the second week of September.

They film 5 episodes a day for two days straight, then the same studio's opposite side is used for Wheel of Fortune, which does the same exact thing - 10 episodes in 2 days. Share a lot of the same crew so that the crew has a 4 day job.

Fun fact - they film it in real time, with the commercial break exactly factored in. Alex talks to the audience during the breaks.
