Alex Trebek May Retire around 2020? And CNN's Laura Coates might replace him?
Alex Trebek Wants Laura Coates To Replace Him on '''Jeopardy''' | Money
She does not look familiar to me. Probably graduated long past my Class of 1989 U of MN Law School. And she looks a lot younger than I am. |

In 2020, Alex will be 80 years old.
Time for a rest and do the things that he really enjoys, IMHO

Tried to get past the Jeopardy online quiz when they had try-outs in Orlando but could not figure out the button or something like that. I doubt if Laura Coates would want a job like the host of Jeopardy. Pay is probably extremely well but she would not get all the interaction with daily news makers she gets as a journalist. I remember a Mondale that was a journalist. I had a Mondale in some of my law classes but not the female journalist. She passed in 2011. Eleanor Mondale - Wikipedia |

Alex Trebek had a brain injury after a fall. He was on You Tube a while ago announcing it. January 2018. I don't know the outcome, but I wonder if it has something to do with his wanting to retire.

I think he would want to go right away if he had had a serious brain injury. I did follow Laura Coates on Facebook and will say "hi" to a fellow Graduate of the U of MN Law School. And perhaps explain what I have been doing since 1991 to her. She probably had a few of the same law professors I did. Depends on when she went there though. William Mondale is the one who was in some of my law classes. He was class of 1990 I believe like my former roommate/girlfriend Jennifer and the first Muslim elected to Congress. Keith Ellison - Wikipedia Ellison was not in any of my classes though that I can recall but some of these were quite big. |

Laura Coates’ Wiki: Husband, Education & More Facts! A LITTLE too political for me. Alex Trebek was not very personable according to a person who was on the show. And he IS very bright and very much could win Jeopardy himself. He didn't have any colorful background that I knew about and that was good. He will be hard to replace. He was in charge for sure. AND very picky about the exact right answer.

Me neither but my parents and their siblings were into it. Unfortunately they all passed away years ago.

I just think that the contestants have monopolized "weirdness". Time to give the host a shot.
