Super Jeopardy! was a special tournament miniseries of the popular game show Jeopardy!. It featured 36 previous Jeopardy! champions competing for $250,000. Some of the rules were different than regular Jeopardy!, such as the quarterfinal games featuring 4 instead of 3 contestants at a time, and correct answers got points instead of dollars. It ran alongside the Monopoly game show.

"Super Jeopardy!" was previously the name of the bonus round on the 1978 version of Jeopardy! in 1978 on NBC.
