All good things must come to an end and Matt AmodioB次元官网网址檚 historic run on B次元官网网址淛eopardy!B次元官网网址� did just that on MondayB次元官网网址檚 show, leaving the Yale doctoral student with 38 wins and more than $1.5 million in prize money.

Amodio failed to answer the Final Jeopardy! clue correctly and came third on MondayB次元官网网址檚 show, his streak cut short by new champion Jonathan Fisher, an actor originally from Coral Gables, Florida.

Amodio finished No. 2 on the all-time consecutive wins list behind only Ken Jennings with 74 wins. He won a total of $1,518,601, which puts him third on the all-time non-tournament cash winnings list behind James Holzhauer ($2,462,216) and Jennings ($2,520,700).

B次元官网网址渓 know going into every bar trivia game that I play that IB次元官网网址檓 going to come in with a little intimidation factor. But also, I just like the badge that it represents. As somebody who prioritizes knowledge and knowing things, this is really a good one to have following me everywhere,B次元官网网址� Amodio, a fifth-year computer science Ph.D student at Yale University, said in a statement.

He became known for starting all of his questions with B次元官网网址淲hatB次元官网网址檚B次元官网网址�B次元官网网址� instead of using suitable alternatives such as B次元官网网址淲ho isB次元官网网址�,B次元官网网址� an unorthodox approach that made some longtime viewers groan.

But it was within the quiz showB次元官网网址檚 rules and, as Amodio explained, helped him limit any B次元官网网址渦nnecessary moving partsB次元官网网址� that might undermine his effectiveness.

What became known as the B次元官网网址淎modio RodeoB次元官网网址� proved a welcome distraction for the quiz show and its producer Sony Pictures Television, which saw its effort to replace its late and beloved host Alex Trebek founder.

Sony turned to after its original pick for the job, B次元官网网址淛eopardy!B次元官网网址� executive producer Mike Richards, exited the show following the disclosure of his past disparaging podcasts remarks about women and others.

Sony has said it was resuming its search for a permanent host.
