  • Recovering Alex Trebek "Overwhelmed" by Fans | Today's News: Our Take | 12/17/2007
    Alex Trebek says he is "truly overwhelmed by the great show of support and compassion" expressed by fans following his recent heart attack. "Even though I know Jeopardy! is a very popular program, I was still surprised at the number of people who took time... to call or send a note," Trebek, who was released from the hospital on Saturday, says in a statement. "I will be back in the studio on Jan. 14 to tape our Teen Tournament, which is one of my favorite competitions." Trebek notes that the Jeopardy! installments on the air now "were taped before my heart attack, so what you are seeing is original, not rerun material." read more

  • The Office First things first:... | Today's News: Our Take | 2/10/2006
    The Office First things first: I know Jenna Fischer gave us fair warning in this week's blog, but I simply can't get past Pam's slightly different (yet thoroughly radical) hairdo. It's like when a formerly four-eyed friend gets contact lenses, or when Alex Trebek shaved off his mustache — you can't think about anything else for staring at the oh-so-tiny, all-consuming change. Sparkly pink headband… I might not sleep for days. Maybe I should take a stress-management cue from Meredith and whip up a big ol' somethin'-and-tonic in the break room. While the rest of the office deals with Valentine's Day and its requisite emotional read more
  • Alex Trebek Awaits Emmy's Verdict | Today's News: Our Take | 5/18/2004
    We're used to seeing Alex Trebek in control. After all, for 20 years he has been the well-dressed man with all the answers on Jeopardy! But this week, the quizmaster's utterly clueless as to whether he'll beat fellow game-show hosts Bob Barker and Meredith Vieira to take home his fourth Daytime Emmy award. TV Guide Online: You're nominated with Bob Barker. How would you do on The Price Is Right? Do you know the price of Rice-A-Roni, for instance?Alex Trebek: No, and my wife keeps chastising me about that because she indicates to me, "You know, the prices have gone up a lot, Alex." I'm not sure I'd do all that well with the current prices of things like that. I tend not to pay all that much attention, although there are situations where I will drive around the block to find gasoline that's two cents less per gallon. TVGO: The celebrity-themed Jeopardy! tournaments are always so competitive. What's the worst trash talk read more
