Alex Trebek Leaving Jeopardy?

Missed this yesterday:

Alex Trebek expects to exit 'Jeopardy!' in 2016  - NY Daily News

He isn't saying he's doing it, but hey, still like 3 years away, so that's nice. He's a pretty fantastic host.

At that point, he'll have been doing it for 32 years. I wonder if they'll try to limp on with someone else or if they'll just cancel it?

I read an article a few weeks ago speculating who would replace him & I feel confident Jeopardy will continue after Trebek retires. I can't remember who the other two names were that were being tossed around in the article, but the one that I liked was Anderson Cooper. Another good reason to watch!!

Can they get Will Ferrell to do it?

Those bastards never called me to be on the show after I passed the test.

Oh God, yes.

Those bastards never called me to be on the show after I passed the test.

I had a teacher in high school who passed as well and she never ended up on the show

My guess says that Alex retires and they get someone else to host the show. Alex is cool, but it's all about the game, not Alex.
