Jeopardy! Question

[GSRebich]

Has there ever been a game of Jeopardy! where there was no Daily Double found during the entire game?

Given that the two Daily Doubles in the second round have to be in different categories, I find it highly unlikely.

I can absolutely believe that in a game with a lot of deadballs (and in the early days categories going untouched) that all three Daily Doubles would be left undiscovered. It was something I pondered on Tuesday.

I thought of the first season myself. When the Jeopardy! DVD came out in the mid-2000s, I was surprised at how many clues remained on the board. Thing is, there aren't too many early episodes documented on the J! Archive...

The Jeopardy Book makes a reference to a category about Honduras making its way into three different games before anyone dove in. I wondered how that happened because I was accustomed to the faster play and fewer wrong answers not knowing about the rule change--one or two clues being unrevealed wasn't out of the ordinary but a whole category was unreal.

The J! Archive doesn't contain any episodes that answer the question. Here's a game from this season though where only one Daily Double was found.
