The host of Jeopardy just died.  He put one hell of a fight, but sadly lost.

Yes. So sad. He will be missed terribly. Jeopardy will not be the same without him.

Beloved host Alex Trebek, who started out in radio and on shows in his native Canada before becoming a fixture of American TV for 36 years as the steady hand of the juggernaut Jeopardy!, has died at the age of 80

Photos His long Legacy!

He was always handsome and classy, while maintaining a good sense of humor.  :heart:

A loss of a great host for an intelligent show.  :star:

Hopefully I am not the only one to see the irony that he and Sean Connery both died so close in time to the other. I stopped watching SNL long ago when they opted to no longer give equal time to mocking both sides of the political spectrum. But I will gladly watch those Celebrity Jeopardy clips on YouTube several times over. It would be a great tribute to both icons if SNL could bring back Will Ferrell and Darrell Hammond for one last run at each other.

I loved watching Jeopardy! This was truly sad news but now he can rest in peace!  :rainbow: :rose: :heart:

Peaceful journey Mr Trebek.  I liked him.  I used to love watching Jeopardy when I was a kid after school.
