9:25, little did he know he'd be hearing a lot more answering with a question for over 35 years of his life...

And now Ken Jennings has the baton, but Johnny Gilbert remains.

9:20 "Mike, you're back to answering a question..." A few years later, the rest is history.

After "Double Dare" (Alex Trebek) got cancelled in 1977, the theme music would be reused for "Card Sharks" on NBC starting in 1978.

[@AarHan3]

Theme music so nice, G-T used it twice!

[@tnawcwvictoria]

and when Card Sharks debut on NBC, Alex Trebek returned to NBC with an Updated Version of High Rollers and 5 months later, JEOPARDY! would return to NBC with the late great Art Fleming as host and the show would be Videotaped at NBC Studios Burbank, CA which was also the home to HR, CS and Wheel of Fortune as well as The Original Hollywood Squares with Peter Marshall JEOPARDY! would also have a Bonus Game called Super JEOPARDY! in which a contestant can earn $5000 in Cash

The man who composed CBS Double Dare/NBC Card Sharks theme song, Edd Kalehoff, also composed Nickelodeon's Double Dare theme song.

I just realized, that Alex looks like he could be related to Peaches - FTPA

Sad news! Alex Trebek passed away three days ago.

[@estestim]

thats how jeopardy started lol

[@bluebear1985]

+Tim Alston He got a good start with this before that, but Jeopardy originally started with Art Fleming as host in the mid-60s.

[@BrianJColby15YT]

It's a good variation of Jeopardy! that likely got Trebek the job for the 1984 Jeopardy! revival.

[@jeprice08]

+bluebear1985 I think Tim already knew that when he made the joke.

[@tnawcwvictoria]

also, Alex Trebek hosted Several Game Shows for NBC Daytime Videotaped @ the NBC Studios in Burbank, CA The Wizard of Odds, Both Versions of High Rollers, Both Versions of BattleStars, To Tell the Truth and of course, Classic Concentration

@@BrianJColby15YT and the "Gameshow Reveiwer" called this game, "average". put some hilarity and you got a classic

[@tourstagez101]

Why was this show ever canceled?

[@jakeblake415]

Probably just didn't get as much of an audience or following as other game shows.

[@disneyfan8178]

@@jakeblake415 Yeah, when it debuted, it was opposite "Wheel of Fortune". CBS later swapped its time slot with "The Price is Right". (IOW, "DD" moved to (9:00 AM Pacific Time, while "TPIR" was moved to 9:30-10:30). However, "DD" still couldn't compete with what NBC had on opposite it, which i think was "Sanford and Son" reruns.

He's known as "Doc" because of his boyhood ambition. In the first act of one of his hits, a poker player says: "Hey Oscar, let's make a rule. Every 6 months you have to buy fresh potato chips. Probably Broadway's most successful comic playwright. In a recent movie based on one of his hits, George Burns says "Knock Knock" and Walter Matthau will only answer..."Enter-r-r-r!".
