Legendary “Jeopardy!” host Alex Trebek has died at the age of 80 after fighting Stage 4 pancreatic cancer, the game show announced Sunday.⁠
⁠
“Jeopardy! is saddened to share that Alex Trebek passed away peacefully at home early this morning, surrounded by family and friends. Thank you, Alex,” the show’s official Twitter account posted.⁠
⁠
Trebek for decades had been the foundation of “Jeopardy!,” one of the most popular game shows in television history. He was known for his wit and fast-paced delivery, and won the Guinness World Record in 2014 for “the most episodes ever hosted by the same presenter.” He was under contract to host the trivia show through 2022 and said he planned to see it through despite his cancer.⁠
⁠
Sony Pictures Television, which produces the show, said his last day in the studio was Oct. 29. New episodes hosted by Trebek will air through Dec. 25.⁠
⁠
“The show is not announcing plans for a new host at this time,” the company said in a statement Sunday.⁠
⁠
Tributes poured in on Sunday, demonstrating the immeasurable impact the veteran host had on viewers.⁠
⁠
“Alex wasn’t just the best ever at what he did. He was also a lovely and deeply decent man, and I’m grateful for every minute I got to spend with him,” legendary “Jeopardy!” champion Ken Jennings tweeted. “Thinking today about his family and his Jeopardy! family — which, in a way, included millions of us.”⁠
⁠
Trebek announced his cancer diagnosis in a video in March 2019, saying he wanted to tell fans himself lest they hear inaccurate or exaggerated reports about his health.⁠
⁠
He was candid about both his mental health and physical pain throughout his multiple rounds of chemotherapy.⁠
⁠
As he underwent a second round of chemotherapy in October 2019, Trebek said he had “lived a good life” and was “not afraid of dying.” ⁠
⁠
“[I’ve lived] a full life, and I’m nearing the end of that life ... if it happens, why should I be afraid that?” he told CTV News in Canada. “One thing they’re not going to say at my funeral, as a part of a eulogy, is, ‘He was taken from us too soon.’” Read more at our link in bio. // 📷 Getty Images
