Alex Trebek passed away earlier this morning.
I'll take "Very Sad Days" for 2000, Alex.
He was the consummate host, able to make his guests feel at home. He was taping episodes through Oct 29; his last one will air on Christmas Day.
I'm very sorry to hear that. I was hoping he'd get better.
With stage 4 pancreatic cancer, and current medical techniques, it’s pretty much a question of how long it can be kept at bay, a complete remission is extremely unlikely. He lasted quite some time, considering. The only thing that surprises me a little is that it came so soon after he had been working on set.
So I’m a bit sad, since I’ve watched the show off and on for years, he seemed to be a decent and likable person, and I’ll miss seeing him on the show (it will never be the same) but I had no doubt this day would come.
Kept working to the end...
Jeopardy will never be the same. RIP Alex.
