Wish he could have received the same care as RBG.
Why would you think he didn’t receive the same care? She had early stage pancreatic cancer about 10 years ago and had parts of her pancreas and her spleen removed. Since then they have watched and a couple months ago found a tumor and she did the same radiation that Trebek is doing.
The only difference is when his was found it was stage 4 not early stage and he’s beyond having a Whipple procedure. It’s a death sentence and I’ve had 3 in my family with the same thing. None lasted a year.

I slightly disagree, I believe he IS the Mt. Rushmore of game show hosts. There have been other all-timers, but he is in a league of his own, no one else is even in the discussion.
You do know that Mt. Rushmore has 4 people on it? So you need 3 others to round it out.

Very sad and an even worse way to die. God bless him!
With that said: He’s a man of plentiful resources-If that’s me I’m going out bucket list style. Grab your team of caretakers, pick the destination of your choice and live life to the fullest.

I am hopeful for miracles. And I want this for Alex. He deserves it. Damn onions.

Kenan Thompson will eventually leave SNL. Maybe now is the time. He's fake hosted plenty of game show skits.

I wonder what black comedian they will replace him with?
It'll be an AA female.
I went to the Jeopardy stage to see a filming. Alex takes questions from the audience during the filming and was asked about his replacement.
He stated that a woman should replace him. Dunno know where it goes from here though.
On another note, Alex is a funny guy and afraid to answer any question who was asked.

He truly is a great man.

Sorry Walrus. My SIL just got diagnosed. She is to sick now for chemo. It's bad.

Cullen is the right answer after all the game shows he hosted. There are many great game show hosts to consider though. Some are known by hosting one show for many years (Rayburn, Dawson, Hall, Ludden). Others hosted multiple (Convy, Martindale, Eubanks, Woolery, the underrated Jim Perry). It is hard to name just 4.

Believe it or not, cancers are different in people. There are a lot of factors that go into treatment decisions.

I wouldn’t put him on the mt Rushmore of game show hosts.
He needs to have his own mountain

While Steve Harvey would not be a good replacement on Jeopardy, he is the best ever on Family Fued.
Richard Dawson all greasy and kissing everything in sight had its own sticky charm.
The day Trebek goes is going to suck. Bar trivia is going to be lit in tribute that night, though.

So Ginsburg got better treatment than Trebeck because of who she is? I believe that is what the referenced post was implying.

I'm not being dramatic when I say that I will have zero interest in Jeopardy once Alex signs off for good and I know I won't be alone.
