That sucks. Used to watch jeopardy with my grandparents whenever I stayed at their house as a kid. With oreos and milk.

My grandma also passed with pancreatic cancer, but that was about 10 years ago.

Rest in peace man.

RIP.

My late grandmother (Who died in 2005) would always watch Jeopardy. Wheel of Fortune would air 3 hours later, something that's still happening where I live to this day. It's gonna be so awkward now.

Damn that sucks, I wonder who will take his place. I think Rutter or James would be a better fit than Jennings. Ken's a bit too meek for the roll. Still it won't be the same without Trebek.

RIP

I doubt either of those two would care to be the host long term and neither would have the diligence that Jennings brings. I'm not sure he wants to do it either, though.

I think Brad has experience hosting quiz bowls and I could see him pulling it off.

In September 2020, Ken Jennings signed on as a consulting producer of Jeopardy!, a job that will include an on-air role reading categories.

I think it's definitely him

Never really got into Jeopardy until I saw James Holzhaur on there. (Enjoyed his performance on the chase prior in 2014) but it's definitely a good show.

At least he was able to host the great of all time tournament last year. Nothing like seeing the two titans Ken and James going at it. Brad's a good player too but he skipped studying and was useless here. I think he just wanted the 250k he was guaranteed for 3rd, lol. No shame there though tbh.

RIP

As a huge fan of James and his personality, even I would admit that he would almost certainly make a horrible host. He's too shy/awkward to pull it off. There's a chance I could be wrong though. Brad would probably be the best host of the 3.

He was an inspiration in how he handled it. He never showed weakness on camera through this whole thing. Jeopardy will never be the same.

Trebek was a professional to his last breath. He was extremely sick.

James had one of the best burns to Brad about his score in one of those episodes that I think I've ever heard. So freaking funny

Anyways, this sucks

Probably the death I'm most bummed about this year

Hearing that he got to spend his last days exactly as he wished has made this less painful. Very few people get that opportunity.
