Alex Trebek, best known as the longtime host of the popular “Jeopardy!” game show, has died at age 80.

"Jeopardy! is saddened to share that Alex Trebek passed away peacefully at home early this morning, surrounded by family and friends," the show wrote on its Twitter account. "Thank you, Alex."

I have watched Jeopardy for decades. It was always fun to match wits with friends and keep track of our scores. At the bar where I work, on a quiet day we always tuned in at 11:30 and played for a drink. [ after work of course ] I don't know who they'll get to fill his spot, but it'll never be the same without him.

RIP Alex
