RIP Alex Trebek

My uncle was a 2-time Jeopardy champion and thanks to the magick of the inner tubes I was able to find the details of his episodes.

Actually it was The Oakland Grill; the gorilla was its mascot.

That is so cool.

And it looks like Ken will be the first host:

"Former Jeopardy! champion, author and know-it-all kind of guy, Ken Jennings, will be the first guest host of the long-running trivia game show, officials said Monday.

The announcement, two weeks after much-loved host Alex Trebek died of pancreatic cancer on Nov. 8, explained that "a series of interim guest hosts from the Jeopardy! family" will take over the show, which Trebek hosted from 1984 until earlier this year."

I don't like Will Ferrell as a comedian, but it would be kinda funny if they had him host as the SNL Alex. Maybe for an April Fools Day episode or something.

That's brilliant, he could host Celebrity Jeopardy week.
