The episodes were taped in late October just before Trebek passed on November 8. The first episode will feature a message about the importance of the holiday season of giving and the last one will include a tribute to the show’s decade long-host for his contribution to the show.

Jeopardy! will be going on with guest hosts starting on January 11 with contestant Ken Jennings, who’s known for having the longest winning streak.

Back in March 2019, Trebek revealed his stage-four pancreatic cancer, but he continued hosting throughout his battle with the disease. On his last day of filming on October 29, he had hosted over 8,200 episodes over 37 seasons.

Trebek landed a Guinness World Record for hosting the most episodes of a single game show and he earned five Daytime Emmy awards for his role on the show.

Jennings is one of the most popular Jeopardy! contestants of all time and he was the winner of the Jeopardy! Greatest of All Time tournament.

“Alex believed in the importance of Jeopardy! and always said that he wanted the show to go on after him,” said the show’s executive producer Mike Richards. “We will honor Alex’s legacy by continuing to produce the game he loved with smart contestants and challenging clues. By bringing in familiar guest hosts for the foreseeable future, our goal is to create a sense of community and continuity for our viewers.”

Trebek’s last day in the studio was October 29 and he passed away from pancreatic cancer on November 8 after being diagnosed in March 2019.

While a long-term replacement host hasn’t been announced, Jennings has been a favorite to take over for Trebek. Other possible hosts are Anderson Cooper and George Stephanopoulos.

More guest hosts will be announced over the next few weeks.

Jeopardy! will be airing a selection of 10 of Trebek’s best episodes between December 21 and December 28. Trebek’s last episodes will be aired the week of January 4, 2021 and the episodes hosted by the interim hosts will start airing on January 11.
