RIP Alex.
It won’t be.
He is no longer the smartest man in the world.

gone - that it would never be the same.
It wasn’t - it was better.
Alex seemed like a dude we would all love to have a cold beverage with.
Maybe they can find the next “cornerstone” host.

A co-worker mentioned this a couple of weeks ago. It would be a good choice. RIP Alex. You were terrific in that role.

Good personality, former champion of the show and someone who Trebek liked. Plus he’s going enough to do it for several years and become the second long time host.

Actually the first person they will probably go after is Dan Patrick because he does the sports Jeopardy version of the show on crackle and he has talked about the fact that there have been some conversations about him taking over for Alex Trebek but he said he’s not sure he wants to do that because he loves what he is doing now and Dan has carved out quite a name and brand for himself and does have the best sports show in the business!
Dan’s success exposes ESPN and is a perfect example of everything that is wrong with ESPN. And my goodness when you look at how totally insane Keith Olberman has become it is actually quite sad!

Alex is the celebrity I'll miss the most since Charles Schulz.

Mom will be devastated. She set aside 7:30-8pm every night for Jeopardy, wouldn't even answer the phone while it was on (like me & Clemson football).
RIP Alex Trebec

RIP. You will be missed. Sad that the money is all in the treatment of cancer and not the cure.
