TIME Magazine Interviews: Alex Trebek

[Seattlecarnut]

Jeopardy, starring Alex Trebek has always been my favourite show to watch on television. Alex Trebek has a sense of humour. That's important in a game show host.

[DoMinC246]

Thats not what your mother said Trebek!!!! HaHaahaha

[VieuxMalcommode]

I loved the question about Presidents, living or dead, as Jeopardy contestants: After answering Barack Obama would make a good contestant, he's asked "which president (singular) would not make it out of the first round", he winces and hesitates: "No, I don't want to venture a response on that, as some of them would be more recent than others"

I can't think of a smarter answer clearly pointing the finger at George Bush without naming him!

[coltsluvrjohn52]

It's funny though, Woodrow Wilson was also known as one of the biggest racists to be President. So I wonder how it would play out, him and Barrack Obama on at the same time....hmmmm

[Tony63909]

Some of the questions were stupid.The one about the presidents and his mustache were comical I would have asked about the preperations he does prior to a taping. I also wonder if he would be interested in being a contestant on celebrity "Jeopardy" and having someone else host. How much money is he paid to host the show?

[Angie2343]

Alex is amazing! I'd like to meet him and play a game of Jeopardy against a certain supercomputer. If Alex reads a clue wrong, I'll ask him to give the cue card over to me and I'll read it.

[fingerprintlock]

He speaks so clearly and just sounds like nothing rattles him

[hifellow]

Trebek is a jerk!

[gfh110]

He's so frigging articulate it's almost unfair.

[JimmySand9]

Alex Trebek, for those of you who didn't know, actually hosted a show very similar to Hollywood Square called "Battlestars", which aired on NBC on two seperate and short occasions in the early 80's. I guess he enjoyed doing that.

[meenandgreen]

haha seems like a cool guy

[WAKEUPshift111]

hey hes kinda funny

[lmcgee]

what's not to love about alex trebek, great man and great show!

[fishandfestival]

Alex looks fantastic for a man who is 70...I think he should re-grow his moustache...He's certainly one of, if not the best game show host ever...Alex seems like a very cool, calm and collected guy.

[Danimal77]

Wow, he looks great for being 69 years old.

[MrDeppness]

This was a great interview from start to finish. Alex Trebek is still very bright and looks great for a man pushing 70.

[bylinawaltz]

Yeah=). He's doing great.

[smashwhammy]

The last Hollywood Squares host, Tom Bergeron, was in the S25 Vegas Celeb episode

[CraigFoye80]

The post-Brad Rutter era.

[cookiesncream789]

ROFL! "Do you miss your moustache!"

What a question! Haha!

[TubeTech94]

Great to see the new graphics! I posted some pics of the "new" Culver City set at the GSN forums.

[cruiseshipz]

The graphics on the widescreen monitors looked colorful and beautiful, it looks like they're going to be used in the 26th Season. Great job on the interview TimeMagazine!
