Thanks for posting this. We haven't been able to watch Jeopardy or Wheel of Fortune, which are two shows we watched every day because we have Dish tv. There's some kind of dispute with the provider of our CBS channel so we're unable to watch anything on CBS! This is especially irritating since the contestant is from Las Vegas. We're surely hoping the dispute can be resolved ASAP. We've tried to find episodes on other sources but so far haven't been able to.

I've read the article twice now and I don't see any mention of how to watch the final episodes other than regularly scheduled tv shows, which I can't watch unless DISH comes to some kind of agreement with the provider.

I haven't read the article, but can you watch the show on the CBS website? I was able to do this with some shows when DirecTV was blocking a few channels.
 
I just read the article and see that although they were planning on airing the last episode he shot on Christmas Day they have moved it to January. I'm glad. I think seeing Alex's final show on Christmas would have been too much for me.

Interesting. This article talks about Jeopardy airing on ABC. In my area it's on CBS.

Its syndicated, we get it on NBC affiliate.
 
Just get an indoor antenna and watch it over the air. You simply select a different source on the TV.
 
'Part of me left here when Alex left': 'Jeopardy!' announcer Johnny Gilbert remembers Alex Trebek

"Everybody's walking around in a little bit of a fog, shaken from the whole thing. Part of me left here when Alex left, really," he admits.

Nonetheless, Gilbert says he has hope for "those who follow Trebek at the podium."

"Jeopardy! is a very special game. All that information that (Trebek) gave out, aside from what was actually on the show, was in his mind. Somebody has to be able to handle that. If the person lets the show be the show, it will be fine."

'Part of me left here when Alex left': 'Jeopardy!' announcer Johnny Gilbert remembers Alex Trebek

Johnny Gilbert, the "Jeopardy!" announcer, reflected on his memorable experience with host Alex Trebek, who died on Nov. 8 of pancreatic cancer.

It's been hard watching the new episodes the last few weeks, knowing they are the last new ones with Alex.
 
I will probably record the last 5 shows so I can refresh my memory of just how great he was.

Hallelujah! My husband was able to hook up the tv in our guest room to an antenna we received when our former cable provider (DirecTV) pulled a similar stunt and we lost a local channel.
Previously we hadn't been able to use the antenna but somehow it worked this time. Yay! I can see Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune again.
 
“It’s so hard to say good-byes, when there’s so much that’s left unspoken in your eyes.” “Once before I go, I would like to let you know, that I would do it all again.”


Thank You Alex. And for all the years. :clap:

The first 'Jeopardy!' without Alex Trebek: How did Ken Jennings do as host?

Ken Jennings stepped up to the podium as the first interim host of "Jeopardy!" after the death of Alex Trebek. How did the former champ do as host?
www.usatoday.com

"Sharing this stage with Alex Trebek was one of the greatest honors of my life," Jennings said after he was introduced as guest host by announcer Johnny Gilbert. "Not many things in life are perfect, but Alex did this job pretty much perfectly for more than 36 years. And it was even better up close. We were dazzled by his intelligence, his charm, his grace – really, there's no other word for it."

"Like all 'Jeopardy!' fans, I miss Alex, very much," he said. "And I thank him for what he did for all of us. Let's be totally clear, no one will ever replace the great Alex Trebek, but we can honor him by playing the game he loved."
 
10 0000 metres, 10 metre, 500 metres. Just wow. They did not make it easy for Ken Jennings.
