Back on March 6th, Alex Trebek revealed that he has Stage 4 Pancreatic Cancer. Today, he wrapped season 35 of Jeopardy and he gave us an update on his battle.
Some of you may recall that at the beginning of this season I promised you that we had some surprises in store for you. Well, of course, I had no idea at that time that there were some surprises in store for me as well. So here, on the last day of taping for our 35th anniversary season, I wanted to once again thank you for your continuing messages of encouragement and support particularly the many cards I’ve received from young people. I’m touched beyond words. I’ve always tried to be straight with you and I’m not going to stop now so despite what you may have heard I’m feeling good. I’m continuing with my therapy and we, by we, the staff, is already working on our next season, the 36th season of Jeopardy. So I look forward to seeing you once again in September with all kinds of good stuff.
He looks fantastic and I think he is going to beat it. I can’t wait to see what he has planned for us next season.
