Game board, Season 29 (2012–13).

The quiz game showURW Annual, one of URW++'s many digitizations from the film font era.

The game board has undergoneSwiss 911, Bitstream's version of Helvetica.

Besides the logo, perhaps the most recognizable type in Jeopardy! is on the clue cards. Though there are certainly more legibile typefaces than Helvetica Compressed, the categories and levels were clearly designed to make the type as large as possible without sacrificing too much clarity. The clues, on the other hand, don't seem to account for either readability or space efficiency. They are set in all-capsITC Korinna, a fairly ornamental serif with unusual Art Nouveau-inspired lettershapes. I suppose you could argue that the lack of repetitive forms aids legibility, but my guess is that the odd choice is merely a result of what was in style at the time — Ed Benguiat's and Victor Caruso's typefaces were certainly fasionable in the 1970s and '80s.

The "Daily Double" type is likely a modification ofSquare 721, Bitstream's version of Eurostile.

The first Jeopardy! set for its syndication run was designed in 1984 by Henry J. Lickel. The last few incarnations of the set were designed by Naomi Slodki.

ITC Korinna has been used for clue cards since the beginning of the game show's syndication run in 1984. If the strange type choice doesn't distract type nerds from successfully playing Jeopardy! the lack of proper quotes and apostrophes will.
