We all know Mr. Trebek's passed last November, but he had taped enough episodes to finish the season. The season ended, and the show put together this remembrance of the host that aired at the end of his final episode:
I thought I would share it to you. So long Alex. Until next time.
Also, wanted to chat a bit about where the show goes from here, and who potential next hosts can be. I had thought it would be Ken Jennings, but I have heard he has run into some "bad PR" lately. I am not sure what exactly but it could impact his chances. Otherwise, other game shows have gone with B-list news casters, aging comedians, or A-list day time TV stars as well. I am thinking Regis, Meredith, Howie, etc.
Your thoughts.

What a great icon he was. I thought I would watch a recent episode (might have been a syndication rerun, though...) and the contestants can sure make us feel pretty ignorant sometimes, but my shining moment was knowing the final Jeopardy answer (question, really) and ALL the contestants got it wrong. I will bet many on here would correctly be able to answer:
The 2017 film that is the highest grossing film ever set in WWI (might not be exact, but close enough)
Spoiler:
What is Wonder Woman
Two answered 'What is 1917', and one (the leading contestant) actually answered 'Dunkirk' - not even the correct war...
