I can’t believe that Alex was 80! He looked like he was not a day past 60! Rest In Peace Alex! You are and forever will be truly loved and missed. You were an icon with the upmost highest standard of professionalism, dignity and character. I only hope I can be even a tiny bit of a good person and man you were.

“Jeopardy!” was a quiz show that was actually before my time, when Art Fleming was the host. The NBC television network originally carried it from 1964 to 1974. Thanks to its revival in 1984, I got to watch “Jeopardy!”, but with Alex Trebek as the host of the show. I was age 5 at that time of the premiere. I grew up on “Jeopardy!” and “Jeopardy!” grew on all of us: In our homes, whenever the show was on, playing a copy of the home game and the video game version of the show, and even in our classrooms, as a method to prepare for an exam. What Alex wished before he passed was the show to continue, Even I wished the show to continue, mainly because of the things we may or may not have been taught in school, which eventually ended up on the show. RIP Alex Trebek. Thanks for making learning fun.

I remember watching him in the late 2000s... it was our family tradition to watch Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune... Rest In Peace Alex :(

Alex Trebek voiced himself in a Jeopardy-based Family Guy skit, but it was not the one shown here

My family and I watched Jeopardy every night and mostly to see Alex Trebek, Jeopardy will never be the same without him! My thoughts and prayers and condolences go out to everyone he left behind! Rest In Peace Alex Trebek 💔😢😭

Playing jeopardy in heaven with Sean Connery

Gonna miss him. He was of the kindest and wittiest men that ever lived.

Watching this just breaks my heart because it just goes to show how sweet and caring this man really was God rest this man’s soul

That is the most well-organized garage I've ever seen.

I’m 24, I grew up with Alex, watching the show after school, I cannot imagine who is going to fill his shoes.

He died on the swing in the backyard of his house sitting next to his wife Jean just like he wanted to do its very very sad :(

I just love how he's not a pretentious host. #WeLoveYouAlex You will surely be missed! 💯💯💯💯

🙁 I am sorry to learn of the passing of Alex Trebek. He was such a kind and genuine person. Jeopardy will not be the same without him. RIP Alex Trebek 🙏🏾

Who thought we'd ever lose Sean Connery AND Alex Trebek around the same time

I have no more words anymore . I’m speechless. I can’t believe my eyes . What is jeopardy without you. They might as well end the show now , because there is no point of continuing without you , o dear boss . You will be missed and remembered in our hearts and especially for us jeopardy fans . Not all heroes wear capes and have superpowers . Thanks for being by our side and always being so brave on your 2 year battle with pancreatic cancer. R.I.P Alex Trebek and thank you for everything 😭

Rip Alex Trebek. I grew up with him, everytine I come home from school my dad and my family would watch it at 4:00 pm every day. RIP a game show legend.

Always in our hearts Alex ♥️

He was always so humble ❤️

The neighborhood isn’t the same without Mr. Rogers Wall Street week isn’t the same without Louis Rukeyser and Jeopardy will never ever be the same without Alex Trebek

He passed away but Jeopardy is still showing him alive on current nightly shows.

My mama loved him she loved that show she died in 2011 he’s going to have a lot of fans waiting for him when he gets to happen where he’s out probably right this minute as I’m speaking because he died yesterday I believe God bless him and his family I am sad.

FACT: He was halfway through his contract

So strange watching the SNL parodies of Alex Trebek & Sean Connery, knowing that they died a week apart.

It has been a week since we lost our beloved Alex Trebek and he will be remembered forever and ever since I started watching him on television as a die hard fan of his work

Alex Trebek, Earth is sending Love up! To all who Loved and lost him, your in our thoughts and prayers here in Philadelphia,Pa.

We lost an icon but he’ll be remembered by everyone living now back to when Jeopardy started forever

Grandpapa Alex was so handsome!😇

Great tribute!

Jeopardy with trebek is my comfort zone.

He was hired the same month I was born. Got addicted young and watched for 30 years. Godspeed to you brother.

One of the best damn moustaches of all time.

Well done Alex ❤️

One of my favorite game shows @ 1:39. May Alex #RIP. (July 22, 1940 - November 8, 2020).

*I can't be the only one that thinks that cameraman that went on the roof with Trebek looks like Stephen King, am I?*

He’s so right about humor being a cure. Believe me, I use it in most everything I do to break tension and make people’s days.

sean connery and alex trebek will finally meet

When I saw Alex and Michael laughing (Ninja Strahan) I felt a sense of calmness. ❤️

This is inspiring

Alex and regis philbin all time greats the 🐐

He was a nice man. He was the Fred Rogers of game shows. He was compassionate, calm, and had an incredible presence. He’s dearly missed😭💔💔

3:39 Ow my heart...

In the same year Kobe dies Alex Trebek is gone. Sad year.. What's next in 2020? We are almost finished..

He will be missed 😢

TIL Alex Trebek had a smoking hot wife, well played sir.

I could listen to that "women in jeopardy " line for ever and ever. For some reason his passing has had me more in the feels than most celebrity passing. We will miss you Alex. If you didn't meet Sean in life you will meet him in death

Concentration, Jeopardy, and To Tell The Truth. Im 31 years old and only heard of one

R.I.P my fellow Ontario Canadian brother. What a legend

I grew up with my grandparents watching his show Jeopardy when I was really young and he will be dearly missed. 😥

He looked so much like Rock Hudson when young!

He still had a good number of years left in him, but cancer took that from him😔

Alex Trebek was a very nice guy!

My favorite game show, by far.

Love Alex Trebek! He will always be one of the family.

Man has been my idol for as long as I can remember. Rest easy.

Alex was a great Canadian icon 🇨🇦

A roll of duct tape would solve any problem( Grand Torino) 🙌

This man is a saint.

I will never forget you Alex, thank you for everything! *sigh* Not unexpected but much more painful then I ever thought.

What an icon he was!

Alex and Johnny Olson have one thing in common..they loved their jobs.

Our hearts go out to Alex Trebek’s family and friends. 💕

Who else came here for the comments :) RIP Alex Trebek

🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦 A True Canadain 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

Alex Trebek was Jeopardy! as Pat Sajak was Wheel of Fortune

9:10 another game show legend.....Johnny Gilbert, who filled in for Bill Cullen on the original Price is Right, is 96! He and Alex had quite a rapport on Jeopardy! The game show world lost a big star to Heaven, but we have plenty of episodes!!! RIP Alex - you won Final Jeopardy!

Alex greatly resembled actor Lee Horsley (aka "Matt Houston") in his younger "moustache" years.

He looks like a Canadian Burt Reynolds

This was amazing story about Alex. Thank you to all that made this segment possible

There's no other guessing games like it,with Alex Trebek on Jeopardy!"Rest In Peace Alex and thanks for inspiring for all us and everything what you have done us.We love you,will missed you.Thanks for creating a very unique game for us.1940-2020.❤

For the first two shows did in the States, it was one of the rare cases where an emcee would have a show cancelled on a Friday, and be back with a new one the following Monday. Only a few others have had that happen to them that come to mind. I can also think of Art James, Tom Kennedy, and of course, Bill Cullen.

I remember in 1984, for the revived version of Jeopardy, they hired Alex as the host because they show would have a long run and they felt that needed a young host like Alex. They got more than they bargained for.

Although he was dying it still feels weird knowing he’s gone

Ahhh. What a cool guy.

Crazy Sean Connery Dies Then Alex next. Their Spirits Were Integrally Intertwined.

What a great man God bless RIP

I remember those David Letterman impressions Alex Trebek did for the “Stupid Answers” category.

Me and my great aunt would watch jeopardy every night Rest In Peace Alex we’ll never forget you

Alex Trebek did other game shows Classic Concentration on NBC To Tell the Truth also on NBC Battlestars Double Dare Wheel of Fortune

On this blue ball of life, he was one of the good guys! RIP Alex...

An absolute unit ;( RIP

Now Alex and Alan will be friends forever in heaven.

My nut and bolt collection looks like that! haha

He will truly miss I still 💔 can't believe he gone 😢

[Alex Trebek arrives in heaven] Sean Connery[chuckling] :we meet again Trebek. Trebek: actually we've never officially met on earth. That was a parody of my show with actors playing both of us.

Ken Jennings as new Jeopardy host it seems

Dang he had his kids when he was 53 and 56.

Rip Alex...as a fellow Alex...one of my nicknames growing up was your name...yes it was aggravating sometimes but I couldn’t be more honored now to share your name...ironically the year you started jeopardy is the year I was born🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

Three game shows at a single time? That's impressive, but he wasn't the only one. The late Geoff Edwards hosted Chain Reaction, Jackpot!, and The Big Spin at the same time during the late 1980s and early 1990s.

What a great guy. He knew he was getting an advance and knew of his prognosis and gave the advance to charity.

How dare yo shame the OG Baywatch

Rest in peace, man. See you around.

He needs a movie,it would be great!

One of the 2 Canadians we would have happily installed as King 2020 better not touch Cmdr Hadfield....

Fun fact: you can’t breath while smiling Joking, just wanted to make you smile 😃.

I can't believe he is dead its hard to believe but also easy to believe at the same time which is all very sad I hope whoever replaces him is just as amazing as him he is amazing!

3:53 DYING

He closely resembled actor Lee Horsely in some of those earlier pics.

RIP Legend, weird that Conn Seannery and Alex Trebek died close dates. Ironic both were potrayed in an SNL Jeopardy skit way back by Will Ferrell (Alex) and Darell Hammond (Connery) trolling the former.

Rip Alex trebek-you was the best ever, 1940-2020 November 8-guys he isn’t dead he just got welcomed to another jeopardy! Hopefully he will be in our next life because my grandma and grandpa watched him in 2019 they died March 4 (grandpa) 2019 my grandma died January 24 2019 they all in paradise.everyone it’s gonna be okay we can watch all his tv and movies. Alex was the best show maker then anyone else,I used to watch it with my grandma and grandpa his wife misses him and his kids and his family. We can maybe go to his funeral or look it up to see his dead body,BUT SOME IS BAD. Because some isn’t Alex they do it for likes, and they made fun of his death everyone told them to stop and he was still laughing and I was crying. Stop bullying,and cancer.
