Season 26 (2009-2010)[]
Season changes:
- The opening credits have changed to flying glass panels with a moving Jeopardy! logo underneath. As more panels are flying over, the Jeopardy! logo is shown at different angles. Then the camera pans out to show the Jeopardy! logo, and then two glass doors close and then open to reveal the 2009-13 set.
- After being introduced while taping at the Consumer Electronics Show in Season 25, the 2009-13 set becomes the primary set in the studio, and remains in use until the end of Season 29.
- Starting this season, the monitors on the contestants' podiums reverted to the Final Jeopardy! logo at the end of the show.
- The gameplay round title cards feature the "DOUBLE" and "FINAL" in Double and Final Jeopardy! in red, using an unknown font with similarities to Agency FB.
- The contestant intros and Final Jeopardy! winnings indicators are purple stripes with a white text in the same unknown font.
- At the start of the Jeopardy! segment, the Jeopardy! logo spans the whole game board except in the monitors that reveal the categories.
- The dollar figures now appear on five television monitors, accompanied by six futuristic bell style musical notes. This sound effect remains until the end of Season 32.
- The closing credits are changed to a new font, Futura, and were used for the copyright credits on early episodes; shortly after the start of this season, however, the copyright credits are changed to Helvetica Bold.
