"When I hear that music, I don't want to see an interim host. In a perfect world, I want to see Alex Trebek." That's how I felt when being born and then coming home from school, day after day. The JEOPARDY! and Game Show world is never the same without Alex, ever. Ken Jennings put that so well, there. I can't wait to see how he fares on "The Chase", and as a guest host of JEOPARDY!, though it will hurt a little- it's not easy at all to imagine the stage, without Alex there at all.

The KEN-FL 😂🤓🙌🏼 I think Ken is the best choice to permanently host. He is well aware he’s not “replacing” Alex. Alex was from a different generation than Ken and just had that gentleman/scholar, proper, almost debonair way about him. That’s not too often seen in Ken’s generation. Not to say Ken isn’t polite in his own right, but it was an elegance and generousity that Alex possessed that can’t be replicated. In honor of Alex, he’d want us to stay loyal to Jeopardy and continue to enjoy the game. It’s already difficult not to miss someone that was a part of a daily routine for over 30 years. Alex is like extended family to millions. I think we can all agree, we are glad he’s at peace and no longer having to battle and suffer, mostly in silence, behind closed doors. Also, thinking of his beloved family and their broken hearts. Rest easy, good sir.🕊🌹🕯☮️💟

The Jeopardy production staff want to "try out" multiple hosts to see which one fits best until they decide on a permanent one, and I have no problem with that. Ken may do a great job but decide he doesn't like it. He's never actually hosted shows now he has two. Alex came into Jeopardy in 1984 as a seasoned veteran of almost 20 years in TV broadcasting going back to the Canadian CBC in the early 60s.
