Jesus Christ, this video is pure gold. No music, no fancy editing. Everything is perfect. It’s like a home VHS video but better quality. Like a grandson filming his grandad. This is the way it should be. This behind the scenes is a treasure. I am so glad this is video taped. We can remember and learn from it if Jeopardy continues in the future without Trebek. And you can tell that he is truly such an intelligent, wise person. Just listening to him go over the game for that day is so fascinating. The process and what it takes, anyone else can easily mess it up and make so many mistakes... but Trebek, Trebek is THE man for it.
I adore this. It amazes me how laid back the whole production is. The clues are printed on paper instead of being displayed on a fancy computer sponsored by some company, his makeup was quick and easy, and they have a ton of books for clue research. Alex is as much of the process of creating the show's clues as the people who write them, instead of just being the host. No one seems to be the stereotypical Hollywood juggernaut that we're used to. It's a quaint and straightforward production; there's no drama, no sponsors, and the host's personality isn't the main driver of the show. I love this show so much and I wish more television was like it. I really appreciate you guys for making this and releasing the extended version!
hetr it’s such a tightly run ship. The contestant handlers are fantastic and each episode is shot in about 40 minutes. (Compare that to the US version of The Chase. Each episode took 4 hours to shoot.) They make the entire production look easy.
A relative of mine was on the show. He said Trebek's off camera personality was pretty much the same as what you see on the show. Very direct, no humor, and seemed somewhat of a cold fish.
@@paystarbuzzy So very well said, and truly sums up the man we get to see promoting knowledge on a daily basis, which is not so common in today's world.
For sure. I watched videos on the CNN and Fox News TH-cam channels after the cancer announcement and they were both very positive and supportive. That's incredibly rare today.

What a charming and down to earth man. How blessed are we that we got to see this man teach us on television for these all these years. R.I.P. Alex. We love you!!!
I would’ve loved to have been a contestant on Jeopardy when Alex was alive. I probably wouldn’t have gotten very many answers right but it would’ve been awesome to meet him anyway.
I remember when I went to my first taping of Jeopardy and when they went to commercial break Trebek just came up to the audience and started making random witty jokes/remarks. It was amazing, giving him all my support as he destroys cancer!
He seems like a grumpy guy that doesn't want to be bothered, but as soon as he gets on stage, he changes. His voice gets smoother, and he seems very charismatic!
You'd be grumpy, too, if you were trying to do your job but had some stooge following you around asking largely inane questions and to read rap lyrics. (Seriously?)
jonathan bell YOU DO NOT WANT TO MESS WITH A PERSON IN FRONT OF A BIG BOOK OF CLUES. IF YOU WANT TO BOTHER ME, BRING ME A DOZEN DONUTS & A COLD 12 PACK OF DIET COKE LOL!!! 🙂
I can’t believe when someone asked if he had any plans to retire soon he was like no do you know something I don’t and then in November he actually retired since the pancreatic cancer got worse on him. He didn’t deserve to die by having cancer. Rip Alex Trebek. You’ll never be forgotten! July 22nd, 1940 - November 8th, 2020 😭😭😭
Some said Alex seemed grumpy. He's not grumpy. He's actually just being himself, not turned up to level 10 for a TV camera, he's also focused on his real work. The work that happens off camera so he can be GREAT on camera. I have the utmost respect for this man and I wish him NOTHING but the best in his fight against Cancer.
No one will be just as good as Alex, it would take 33 years to be just as good as him. Alex will always be the best Jeopardy host we had. Rest in peace Alex.
I don't think he was that grumpy like others are saying. Being interviewed is usually awkward for most celebrities. I think it went well on both sides. Thanks for this Graham! I
I didn't see him as grumpy either, just a regular guy at 8:00 in the morning. Most people only see the "Alex Trebek" character. (Howard Stern said people are shocked that he is not his radio character in real life.)
@@buckosoft I think the beginning was shot even earlier than that. He says he gets to the office at 6 and they go into a meeting at 7:30. The beginning would be filmed some time around 6 AM. Of course he's gonna have a "grumpy" morning voice!
Alex, I think, was just so smart that, when he's in his zone and doing the prep work for the games, he's focusing so much on the task that he doesn't quite sound as sociable in his speech as he does on stage.
Very interesting to see the behind-the-scenes. Trebek takes his work seriously and enjoys it just as much. Loved the unscripted questions from the audience. Also, that is a well-written description of the video.
A true example of passion and dedication. I’m Brazilian, living in Brazil, and really seek to watch the show whenever I can. He will truly be missed. Forever an icon. Farewell…
A fascinating look behind the scenes of this show and its host. Neat to see Alex as just a regular guy in his office and around the set. I really enjoyed this sneak peek.
I was sadder about Alex Trebek's death than I was saddened about the death of any other person that I have never met before and even some that I knew. He was like a close family member and I know that many people share my sadness because they think of him in the same way. In this world of negative people and their negative influences, he was a consistent, calm, positive presence, and for that there are few people more worthy of our affection. There will never be a person that can fill his shoes completely. RIP Alex, you made a positive impact on my life.
Well he has a busy schedule. It would get stressful, so having a camera in there behind the scenes would add to that stress. He seems more focused on doing his job well.
Yeah people in the comments have no damn clue, guy worked literally 14-16 hours a day, woke up at 5AM, barely had time to do anything else, yeah who wouldn't be a bit serious and grumpy that early in the damn morning trying to do a job whilst answering questions and trying not to say the wrong things on camera.
My mom, myself and my grandfather watch jeopardy together every night that it's on, followed by Wheel of fortune. I just can't imagine not hearing his voice every night anymore.
I watched this introduction from the executive director I had goose bumps and tears in my eyes jeopardy will never be the same without Alex it’s like loosing a family member there will be a empty hole in our hearts when we see a new host Rest In Peace Alex Trebek
This is fascinating. Alex is looking fabulous. Interesting to hear he is helping his daughter renovate. Multi- skilled, handsome, so intelligent, and a nice guy. He oversees what a makes a fantastic show. Like the audience questions and he answering. RIP Alex. You are missed and remembered. Much loved.
This was absolutely amazing to watch!! I've always wanted a inside look into what Alex reads behind the podium and how it's put together, his process for preparing for a show and his personality behind the scenes. I remember when he read those raps on TV, they were developed into memes before the next morning lol and to close this behind the scenes episode with more raps from the Migos, DJ Khaled and The King & Queen of Music (Jay Z and Beyonce) with such flow,.....OMG, *****APPLAUSE***** ALEX TREBEK YOU'RE THE GREATEST!!! #LongLiveAlexTrebek #LongLiveJeopardy
Been watching Jeopardy since the Art Fleming days that was on around noon time. Love Alex, and I pray he beats this terrible cancer. We need men like him in our homes, clean, honest and real.
I will watch this again and again. Any person that loved his job like Alex Trebek should be able to live forever. He was so down-to-earth. You can tell he was extremely serious about the quality of the show and it was demonstrated with every taping. That is what made Jeopardy the favorite game show of all time. I had no idea of his love for remodeling. Wish he could have been my neighbor, would have loved his conversations and dry sense of humor. Alex, if anyone can ever fill your shoes, I will be amazed. There will be people that seem to be appropriate and will be able to host, but they can never be the true face of Jeopardy. RIP
I love the dynamic here. Sort-of-nervous, excited young reporter and calm, jaded old staff. It feels so real, like how else do you take a camera into an environment like this and ask questions? Nervously, afraid to intrude, it feels so familiar and homey. I'm sure that sweet office of people was rocked by Alex's death, as was the world. But I hope they get to go on and make things feel normal again
I put Alex in the same category as Mr. Rogers. Wholesome hosts. They both truly cared about their viewers and wanted to expand the world of knowledge to young and old alike. Miss them both. RIP to the best hosts ever to grace the television screen.
I love that he has a picture of Art Fleming in his office. I have been a fan of “Jeopardy!“ so long that I remember watching the Art Fleming version, and in fact I saw a taping when I was a teenager. So it’s fun to see a little behind-the-scenes look at the show.
What a good sport, a "gamer" and a guy who's down for fun. Many men his age would get all grumpy and scrunch their face up if asked to recite rap lyrics. Mr. Trebek does it with enthusiasm and vigor. You know he's going to be *EVEN MORE* popular now with the recent health news. Everyone is going to be pulling for him.
The fast pace of Jeopardy is what keeps me watching. If I'm watching a game show and the make us wait until after a commercial break before seeing the answer, i change the channel and never watch the show again. And thats pretty much how all other game shows operate.
It's a very nice touch having a picture of Art Fleming behind him! I used to watch him on CBC in Toronto. He hosted a game show called " Reach for the To". Kind of a GE College Bowl for high school kids. Prayers for his health.
Thank you for this special look behind the scenes. I was looking forward to attending a taping of a show earlier this year and had tickets for April--before it got shut down by COVID. This about makes up for it. RIP Alex.
Yes- Alex was very much known to be against Racism and the like- but yet he was gentle on the subject, but notice the look on his face when he said that. That expression as compared to baseline indicated contempt for the terminology used.
The photo of Art Fleming is perfect! He was the original host of the NBC and first syndicated Jeopardy! Glad that Alex has that.They met on High Rollers in 1978 when J! was making a return,albeit short-lived again on NBC.
Thanks so much for putting this up. Alex always appears to be such a nice guy so it’s comforting to know he really is. I’m praying he can overcome his battle with cancer,I did and he can. The best Alex!
Love this man. Miss him so much. Don't watch Jeopardy anymore since he passed. But I do catch Classic Concentration sometimes. He was very young then and very, very handsome!! Miss you Alex
😍I love him. He is such a good looking man. I’m glad he addressed the hair in his conversion with Jane Pauley because I really couldn’t tell if it was or wasn’t his own hair. I hope he’ll be okay. He is a treasure. 🤗💞🤗
I love watching this and then the actual edited video and seeing how completely different they both are. Don't ever forget the work editors do to make things look finished
Wow that’s amazing behind the scenes of how the employees work at jeopardy before , during and after the taping of the show. Do more videos like this one in the future
I love how down to earth and dry he was. His sense of humor was so brilliant and he’s already dearly missed. There’ll never be another Alex Trebek. His choice of favorite vacation spot (Yorkshire, England) was great. Haworth (which he mentioned and was home to the Bronte sisters) is such a lovely place.
I remember growing up in the 80s and 90s and my Dad would never miss an episode of Jeopardy!, regardless of what was going on at the time. If he was going to take me fishing, it *had* to wait until after Jeopardy! No exceptions. For that reason alone, I couldn't stand the show. As I turned into a teenager, I slowly warmed up to it, but it was most likely due to familiarity. By the time I hit my early to mid twenties, I wouldn't miss an episode. Every opportunity I got to watch it with my Dad, I did. That was something we always shared a passion for (besides football) before he passed away about thirteen years ago. At 42-years-old and three kids of my own, I am proud to say that my kids have been watching Jeopardy! since birth and although my oldest is only 9, he is as obsessed with the show as me and the Papa he never got the chance to meet. His younger brother and sister are just as enamored with the show. My wife used to hate it, but she came around shortly after we married and now she loves it as much as our kids and me. Needless to say, my entire family is really pulling for Alex to win his bout with pancreatic cancer. He's as much a part of my family as some of my blood relatives. I predict there won't be a dry eye in my house when the day finally comes that Alex Trebek is no longer the host of this iconic show. In the meantime, Godspeed, Alex! You're in our prayers.
Jesus Christ, this video is pure gold. No music, no fancy editing. Everything is perfect. It’s like a home VHS video but better quality. Like a grandson filming his grandad.

Alex is still checking the dictionary for definition of words.I use the computer or
Smart phone.So original so brilliant.
They do a lot of makeup.He is not fun to interview.So serious but I like him.
There is research that shows you remember things better on paper and if you write rather than using a computer. It also produces more creativity.
I detect a difference in his personality before/after the Jeopardy suit
Alex seems so fake-grumpy that it’s hysterical. He’s so dry but you can tell he really loves his job.
He didn't seem happy about being taped. Jeopardy viewers enjoy this. I was glad to see behind the scenes
@@TheMjphoto45 I want to say its because it's early in the morning, They shot it at around 6:30 i'm sure we all would sound the same.

What a great piece to have...and look back on. I’ve watched Alex in various game shows all of my life. Tremendous guy. May he rest well!
Im never exercising again
the best healthcare in the world is healthy diet and exercise
My favorite tv show of all time. Liked the old black and white version. Love this one. Get well, Alex, this has gotta keep going forever.
Really kind of Alex to let these folks share his day. We love you, Alex!
Rest in peace to the guy I've been watching since childhood
The show is beloved in large part because of it's host. God speed and get well Mr. Trebek.
The fast pace of Jeopardy is what keeps me watching. If I'm watching a game show and the make us wait until after a commercial break before seeing the answer, i change the channel and never watch the show again. And thats pretty much how all other game shows operate.
I love that announcer equally.
Fellow uottawa -er👍👍
Ugh, I love him. So articulate and thoughtful also funny. Fight that cancer!!!
It's a very nice touch having a picture of Art Fleming behind him!
I used to watch him on CBC in Toronto. He hosted a game show called " Reach for the To". Kind of a GE College Bowl for high school kids.
Prayers for his health.
Holy shit Alex is an amazing guy. I'm really glad I took the time to watch this.
This hits different now.
👍This was terrific. The ending was stupid. Just goes to show how classy and gracious Alex is. What a fine example he is. 😍💞🤗
Im watching this video 12 days after Alex Trebek passing and my heart ❤️ is torn into pieces... What a wonderful person he was... he will be missed!
Oh, did I mention that I love this upload? I love "Behind The Scenes" anything.
Thank you for this special look behind the scenes. I was looking forward to attending a taping of a show earlier this year and had tickets for April--before it got shut down by COVID. This about makes up for it. RIP Alex.
Continue to be Blessed! My prayers are with u.. You have MILLIONS OF PEOPLE PRAYING FOR YOU! ❤️🙏🏾❤️
We don’t like “cracker”😂 legendary
How about announcer Johnny Gilbert! 94 years old and kicking!
@@giovannijimenez7593 bro this comment was a whole ass year ago. I have no clue what my comment was about😂
Yes- Alex was very much known to be against Racism and the like- but yet he was gentle on the subject, but notice the look on his face when he said that. That expression as compared to baseline indicated contempt for the terminology used.
The final taping was less than 2 weeks before he passed away, his mind was sharp right up to the end.
The photo of Art Fleming is perfect! He was the original host of the NBC and first syndicated Jeopardy! Glad that Alex has that.They met on High Rollers in 1978 when J! was making a return,albeit short-lived again on NBC.
I can’t believe he’s almost 80!
There will be a national day of mourning when he dies.
@@terryk1233youtube lol what
Uhhhhh
thanks for the memories
Going miss him so much R.I.P Alex may GOD be with you thank you for everything you have done for your fans
Thanks so much for putting this up.
Alex always appears to be such a nice guy so it’s comforting to know he really is.
I’m praying he can overcome his battle with cancer,I did and he can.
The best Alex!
He's so normal. We love Alex
Love this man. Miss him so much. Don't watch Jeopardy anymore since he passed. But I do catch Classic Concentration sometimes. He was very young then and very, very handsome!! Miss you Alex
😍I love him. He is such a good looking man. I’m glad he addressed the hair in his conversion with Jane Pauley because I really couldn’t tell if it was or wasn’t his own hair. I hope he’ll be okay. He is a treasure. 🤗💞🤗
I love watching this and then the actual edited video and seeing how completely different they both are. Don't ever forget the work editors do to make things look finished
Huge bucket list of mine was go to a recording ... theyre really entertaining. He is a legend
It's amazing what a presence Alex is on stage.. People in the audience are mesmerized by him.
I, absolutely love, and respect Alex Trebek. He is a wise, and admirable gentleman. Keep on, keeping on, Alex. You got this!!!
Wishing him the best, I remember watching his show and wheel of fortune back when I was in elementary school
Alex is the brightest dude. He was cool and loved my fellow utah guy ken jennings.
Fantastic behind the scenes/interview. Thank you!
15:47 this part hits different now:(
Totally. it hurts a bit.
Alex is a true OG. Wish nothing but the best for that man. Plus my Grandma loves Jeopardy
Such a crusty, loveable guy off-camera. We miss you, Alex.
Wow that’s amazing behind the scenes of how the employees work at jeopardy before , during and after the taping of the show. Do more videos like this one in the future
He has a mind as sharp as a razor.
Extremely impressive.
Its somehow strange that I always wanted to be Alex Trebek.
Does that sound weird?
What if he has a tiny cock? Would you still want to be him?
Why does it matter someone’s- _that_ size, when if you could be him, you could be an extremely bright and smart person?
I love how down to earth and dry he was. His sense of humor was so brilliant and he’s already dearly missed. There’ll never be another Alex Trebek.
His choice of favorite vacation spot (Yorkshire, England) was great. Haworth (which he mentioned and was home to the Bronte sisters) is such a lovely place.
We miss you Alex! I miss you Alex!! RIH🙏🏽❤❤❤❤
Rest In Peace Alex we love you❤️
I remember growing up in the 80s and 90s and my Dad would never miss an episode of Jeopardy!, regardless of what was going on at the time. If he was going to take me fishing, it *had* to wait until after Jeopardy! No exceptions. For that reason alone, I couldn't stand the show. As I turned into a teenager, I slowly warmed up to it, but it was most likely due to familiarity. By the time I hit my early to mid twenties, I wouldn't miss an episode. Every opportunity I got to watch it with my Dad, I did. That was something we always shared a passion for (besides football) before he passed away about thirteen years ago. At 42-years-old and three kids of my own, I am proud to say that my kids have been watching Jeopardy! since birth and although my oldest is only 9, he is as obsessed with the show as me and the Papa he never got the chance to meet. His younger brother and sister are just as enamored with the show. My wife used to hate it, but she came around shortly after we married and now she loves it as much as our kids and me. Needless to say, my entire family is really pulling for Alex to win his bout with pancreatic cancer. He's as much a part of my family as some of my blood relatives. I predict there won't be a dry eye in my house when the day finally comes that Alex Trebek is no longer the host of this iconic show. In the meantime, Godspeed, Alex! You're in our prayers.
