At the beginning of the show's 20th season in 2003, the rules were changed to allow contestants to remain on the show as long as they continued to win.<a href="#cite_note-14">[14]</a> After this rule change, and until Jennings's run, the record winning streak was set by Tom Walsh, who won $186,900 in eight games in January 2004.<a href="#cite_note-i712-15">[15]</a> Jennings took the contestant exam for Jeopardy! in 2003, but did not hear back from the show for a year. He was given three weeks to prepare for his taping, and he prepared extensively, using a couch as a podium, his young child's toy as a buzzer, and having his wife use <a href="/wiki/Flashcard" title="Flashcard">flash cards</a> and keep score.<a href="#cite_note-p991-16">[16]</a><a href="#cite_note-n977-17">[17]</a> Jennings's run began during Jeopardy!'s 20th season with the episode aired on June 2, 2004, in which he unseated two-time returning champion Jerry Harvey, and continued into season 21. In that first episode, Jennings's entire winning streak nearly ended before it even began. The Final Jeopardy! answer was, "She's the first female track & field athlete to win medals in five different events at a single Olympics." Jennings responded with "Who is Jones?" using only the last name of <a href="/wiki/Marion_Jones" title="Marion Jones">Marion Jones</a> (who was not stripped of her medals until December 2007). Host <a href="/wiki/Alex_Trebek" title="Alex Trebek">Alex Trebek</a> said, "We will accept that, in terms of female athletes, there aren't that many." If the response had not been accepted, Jennings would have finished in third place, and challenger Julia Lazarus would have won the game instead. Jennings had taped 48 episodes before a single one made it to air.<a href="#cite_note-p991-16">[16]</a> His last program was taped in September, but did not air until November 30, 2004, timed to coincide with the end of television sweeps month.<a href="#cite_note-a833-18">[18]</a> On his last show, aired November 30, 2004, his reign as Jeopardy! champion ended when he lost his 75th game to challenger Nancy Zerg.<a href="#cite_note-19">[19]</a> Jennings responded incorrectly to both Double Jeopardy! Daily Doubles, causing him to lose a combined $10,200 ($5,400 and $4,800, respectively) and leaving him with $14,400 at the end of the round. As a result, for only the tenth time in 75 games, Jennings did not have an insurmountable lead going into the Final Jeopardy! round.<a href="#cite_note-20">[20]</a> Only Jennings and Zerg, who ended Double Jeopardy! with $10,000, were able to play Final Jeopardy! as third-place contestant David Hankins failed to finish with a positive score after the Double Jeopardy! round. The Final Jeopardy! category was Business & Industry, and the clue was, "Most of this firm's 70,000 seasonal <a href="/wiki/White-collar_worker" title="White-collar worker">white-collar employees</a> work only four months a year." Jennings appeared perplexed during the time allowed to write a response, while Zerg finished her response quickly. Zerg responded correctly with "What is <a href="/wiki/H%26R_Block" title="H&R Block">H&R Block</a>?" and wagered $4,401 of her $10,000, giving her a $1 lead over Jennings with his response still to be revealed. Jennings incorrectly responded with "What is <a href="/wiki/FedEx" title="FedEx">FedEx</a>?" and lost the game with a final score of $8,799 after his $5,601 wager was deducted from his score.<a href="#cite_note-a833-18">[18]</a> After his response was revealed to be incorrect, the audience audibly gasped, and Zerg appeared to be shocked after realizing that she won. Jennings was awarded $2,000 for his second-place finish, which gave him a final total of $2,522,700 for his Jeopardy! run. Zerg, whom Jennings called a "formidable opponent", finished in third place on the next show. The audience gave a standing ovation in honor of both contestants, and Alex Trebek called Zerg a "giant killer" as Jennings embraced her.<a href="#cite_note-m782-21">[21]</a> Overall, Jennings answered over 2,700 questions correctly on the program.<a href="#cite_note-m782-21">[21]</a> Jennings's run was interrupted by the off-season break (July until September), 2004 <a href="/wiki/Jeopardy!_Kids_Week" class="mw-redirect" title="Jeopardy!

Additionally, the person who managed the buzzer system was changed.<a href="#cite_note-p991-16">[16]</a> In his book Brainiac, Jennings says that the consistency of the original manager's timing had given an increasing advantage to continuing players, and that the change made a noticeable difference in the second season that he was on the show.
