I never missed an episode

Alex Trebek commenced his career in 1965 as the host quizmaster of this Canadian high school competition quiz show and he always made the contestants feel appreciated whether they got their answer right or wrong. It was no surprise when the USA picked him up to become the permanent host of the number one (1) quiz show "Jeopardy" for more than three decades.

We love you Alex and you will always be part of our trivia, education, and mostly entertainment. Your angels wings await you. RIP

I give this show a perfect 10 out of 10 IMDB rating
