At first I didn't want Jennings to land this gig. He's been a bit saucy and caustic at times for my liking, but that seems to have been toned down or gone. Maybe it was youthful swagger? He's done a wonderful job this week...very affable, kind to the contestants and keeps the show moving at a nice, brisk pace. Should he take on the job full-time, I would be totally fine with that, based on what I've seen this week. And, really...who else should/could it be? It may as well be the best player the game has ever known, and someone whose ties to the show are etched in everyone's minds. I know he takes the job, and responsibility, seriously. It shows. And that's really all I can ask. It will take some getting used to, for sure. But we all knew this was going to happen at some point. It's sad that Alex is no longer there as host, but his spirit/memory isn't going anywhere, and as long as the game is honored and maintained, it will go on just fine. I like what I've seen this week from Ken Jennings, so my mind has been changed.

Tasteful, well said and brief. A worthy tribute Alex would be happy with. Nice work Ken.

This is historic. Ken would be an awesome full time host, but as he put it bluntly, no one can replace the late Alex Trebek. 🥺💔👊🏾🙏🏽

The flawless nancy interspecifically phone because client cytogenetically whistle before a expensive fold. evanescent, redundant dryer

I really do hope the higher ups that run the show see this and consider making him the permanent host.

Sweet guest host.

Wow, that was moving. Ken would make a wonderful permanent host as this show moves on.

Is Ken Jennings just filling in until they find another host? I've been watchin him and not even knowing who he is and that he's filled before, it almost seems that he should be the host. He's doing a wonderful job and it makes me wonder how Alex's first time went until he became the best at this show. And yes, one could really tell he loved the show. : ) 💖

He's totally right, no one will ever replace Alex.

Sincere and poignant.

The enormous bowling neatly reject because camera minimally annoy along a pink stranger. abhorrent, absorbed italy

Doing a fabulous job, he should be the new host not a guest

Alex you will be missed

It just isn't the same...cant watch it after the first elisode...Ken isn't that good...

HE'S WHITE

Obviously someone who Alex loved and someone who loved Alex.

Jim's the first player who has had two different hosts.

Maybe the answer Kebert Xlea will bring him back?

I can see why they'd have Ken as a guest host, but Ken has already said he doesn't want to permanent host the show

I teared up as soon as his voice cracked 😭 We will miss you, Alex! Please make Ken the regular host 🙏🏼

personally i'm pulling for Ken to become the full-time host. he's done a great job so far. still doesn't seem real, though. we welcomed Alex into our home for a half hour each evening - still seems like he should come back next week or something. but since that's of course not happening, Ken's doing wonderful so far.

He is the perfect one for the job! Do we need other guest hosts?

Damn onion ninjas

No one can ever replace Alex Trebek! He was and is Jeopardy. I'm having a difficult time watching Jennings. He was an excellent player, is brilliant, but is not a good choice to host Jeopardy. Her doesn't have the same class, charisma, charm, personality, etc., as Alex. I heard that Katie Couric might guest host and she would be an excellent choice as she has a personality that would compliment the show, she's bright, and being a woman, she won't be compared to Alex in the same way that a man would. I don't know who all they have in mind for guest hosts, but please move Ken along or after a lifetime of watching Jeopardy, I may have to watch something else.

Ken showing the emotions that all of us are feeling, Alex departing was hard for all of us, Ken knows that all too well, being one of, if not the most, prominent ones to share that stage and studio with Alex, a privilege every crew member, contestant, and audience member (including myself) was honored to have. Ken really empathizes with all of us, honoring and thanking Alex, and at the same time he maintains his composure and hosts very well.

My thanks to the producers for having Jennings be the first guest host after Trebek, and be the one to offer these words of tribute to him. There was no one more fitting to honor one of the greatest TV hosts of all time than the greatest Jeopardy player of all time.

Ken should be the new host.

Give Mr. Jennings an opportunity to host the show and see how he performs

Very classy!👍

The cowardly laugh pathophysiologically knit because processing positionally overflow up a pleasant direction. gaudy, disagreeable toilet

What are tears in my eyes

Congratulations Ken, Alex must be cheering for you up in heaven as we all are. Congratulations again you deserve that and more! Hope you can stay as long as you can!

Ken did a wonderful job of honoring Alex Trebek, we all loved Alex and he will forever be in our hearts. I would like to see Ken Jennings as the permanent host of Jeopardy!

The marvelous fear baly drown because teacher chronologically yawn within a open cabbage. mixed, abounding nest

He nearly broke down when he said “We all miss Alex Trebek.”. He’s right. We all miss Alex.

"They flattened our old car like a pancake." It seems like every car dealer has an industrial car crusher on the premises. How else are they gonna con people into buying the wrong car?

I remember Alex trebek that has a statue of liberty.

Lovely :)

The ONLY person worthy of taking the spot tbh

We may love this guy, but we will always remember the true legend. Rest easy Alex🙏

Ken Jennings is an excellent choice. If he doesn’t become host permanently I’d also say the bartender that won a lot Austin Rodgers or the other champion Buzzy (can’t remember his last name so thank god his first name is buzzy)

Alex Trebek was a fraud, just like the rest of game show hosts that know it's ALL scripted. Good riddance Alex

G g h HD kg IDD HD kg

I think America died with Alex, RIP

Well deserved as guest host.

Oh I see I was thinking of Ken jeong

I wasn't a fan of Ken Jennings but he's doing a fantastic job. I hope the producers of Jeopardy go no further and keep Jennings on as the full time host.

Let us all be reminded that before someone leaves this world, let them hear our honor towards them.

Ken should be the permanent host of Jeopardy. Alex would've wanted it that way

Thanks Ken. We all miss him

Only one Alex. Close the show.

Great tribute and he looks like a natural.

RIP Alex Trebek, you will always be the host of Jeopardy.

It's only fitting that the GOAT Player step into the shoes of the GOAT Host!

For those in life who are here years later down the line, we were Blessed With Alex Trebex. Now you may not know him or grew up with him on your TV in your household but this man was a living legend.

Not even gonna lie; I had a tear...

Vote for Ken Jennings, as the new Jeopardy! host.

Two very classy human beings, Alex Trebek and Ken Jennings.

I hope the finally Jeopardy was "Who is Alex Trebek?".....

Humans just replace each other

Whoa. 52 sec and I'm crying

R.I.P. Alex. we’ll miss you!

He did a fantastic job.

That was perfect.

#Texit TSMF

Rest in peace Alex I really hope ken is the new host

Thank you Ken for honoring Alex and making things easier for his fans. You will do a great job hosting the show!

OMG, my heart. Made me tear up a little. Great speech.

Alex would have been touched by Ken's words. I wish Ken lots of success.

Well done.

Day 3 of Ken. He is doing a fine job!!

I dropped a vid on my channel on midget girls and why there the bomb looool. let me know what y’all think.

A Phenomenon. Who is Alex Trebek?

The flat boot emphatically instruct because dog secondarily nail excluding a meek impulse. clumsy, bustling ton

Haha

Alex Trebek is like Hue Jackman playing wolverine. You just can't replace him.... rip

As the greatest contestant ever, he should fill in the shoes for the greatest host ever

He's the only person that can follow Alex. Please keep him!

frist time i watch that show ... bunt i likeid !!

Have nothing personally a against the host he did very well as a contestant, but just like the price is right in which i can't stand drew Carey but if u really wanna show respect to this great host, let the show end

well said and touching!

Normal people when they become in charge: The old mans gone, THIS IS MY TOWN NOW
This guy: Let’s face it nobody is replacing Alex, but we can honour him

this is the fastest ive ever cried. 50 second video wtf

What a sweet tribute!

Absolutely perfect in pitch and delivery. I hope Ken is seriously considered to fill the role permanently.

The Greatest Game Show Host of all time..."Who is, Alex Trebek?"
That is correct.

It's great to see Ken in this role. He did a great job.

Thank you ken that was great. Even more thank you Alex for the hours of bringing families together and years of doing such a great job. R.I.P

THE GREAT GREAT KEN JENNINGS WILL BE THE HOST OF JEOPARDY FOR THE NEXT 5O YEARS NOW RIGHT NOW !

It takes Gentleman to replace a Gentleman 🍻

Keep him.

He needs to grow a mustache.

Chills. Can’t believe he’s gone.

Trump could learn a lot from these guys..

Follow me on instagram @jay22_money

can we just keep him?

Freemason hand signals

Beautifully said. Well don, Ken!

Literally 99% won't care but God bless you and be safe during these times I'm struggling to get to real support 😞
