Yeah it's one of my major pet peeves when people erroneously refer to the clues/answers as "questions" The whole point of Jeopardy and what makes it distinctive from regular ol' quiz shows is that you get the answer and must respond with its question. Or "clue" and "response" as Alex called them. So we'll we get a new host or will the show be retired? I can only imagine how sad it'll be when it's Bob Barker's turn And my cat is neutered, just for Bob Link to comment https://www.videogamesage.com/forums/topic/5753-alex-trebek-died/#findComment-133617 Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said awhile back he didn't expect to be around much longer, but he'd keep going as long as he could. I bet even he was surprised by how long he was able to work.
