This breaks my heart. The clip of the guy that throws all his earnings away on the final question to say "We love you Alex" makes me cry all the time. RIP Alex.

you know someone was good at what they did when you'll miss having them around doing it even though you didn't even watch the show
RIP

Sad to see such a giant of primetime go.
That being said, surviving for over a year and a half after a Stage IV pancreatic cancer diagnosis is a triumph in and of itself.

awful
this is bumming me out a lot since the show has been such a staple throughout mine and so many other peoples lives. He probably wouldn't have had too many years left hosting due to his age but for him to have to go out in such a cruel and likely painful way is pretty heartbreaking.

R.I.P. to a legend. He will be sorely missed.
My condolences goes out to all of his friends & families involved.

Oh shit, I just realized the coincidence. So close to each other...Oh my god...
RIP Mr. Trebek! Thank you Sir for all the useful knowledge that served me so well in countless bar trivia tournaments.
Maybe not the place, but something that bothers me about these type of threads is the improper descriptor for the person who passed. I believe there is a clear difference and using "died" doesn't sound proper. Using killed when an accident happens, murdered when someone is murdered, or passed when someone has a peaceful death. Maybe I'm just getting hung up on that, but it is something that bothers me.

I'd love to see a SNL tribute next week. Him and Connery dying so close to eachother is quite a coincidence.
RIP
Definitely grew up watching Jeopardy pretty much my entire life thus far (Mom always had it on while I was a kid) so it's going to be weird not seeing him on the show.
