RIP Alex Trebek... (1940-2020)
Unfortunately, on Sunday, November 8, 2020, the host of Jeopardy!, Alex Trebek, unexpectedly passed away from stage 4 pancreatic cancer at the age of 80. He was a very good man and was the host of Jeopardy! from 1984 until 2020. Jeopardy! episodes aired by him will continue to air until December 25, 2020, and his last taping occurred on October 29, 2020. There are no plans for a new host of Jeopardy!, although Trebek had a contract to be the host until 2022, and planned to finish the current season, but he unfortunately didn't make it that far, sadly. He will forever be remembered.
