Jeopardy will continue to air new episodes hosted by Trebek for the next six weeks, culminating with the legendary host's final episode, on Christmas Day.

People reports: “New episodes featuring Trebek will continue to air through Dec. 25, Sony Pictures Television has announced. His final day in the studio was Oct. 29 — just 10 days before his death. After going on hiatus due to the coronavirus pandemic earlier this year, production resumed over the summer. The ABC game show returned for its 37th season in September, with Trebek as host. Additional plans about the future of the show have yet to be announced.”

Alex was so much more than a host. He was an impartial arbiter of truth and facts in a world that needs exactly that. He was someone you could count on to entertain you every weekday, even when his health barely allowed it. And he was an underrated rapper: pic.twitter.com/ybvp7RlvjH

I keep thinking about the last time I spent with Alex Trebek. We were at a media panel promoting #JeopardyGOAT. Ken, Brad, EP Harry Friedman, Alex and I cracked wise about the show for our allotted time, then the reporters approached the stage for interviews.

Those interviewers knew even the greatest contestants come and go, but the greatest host is eternal. Keep wearing that title belt wherever you are now, friend. You certainly earned it. pic.twitter.com/wIpPodA9n1

Lost for words.
I'm full of gratitude for the joy Alex brought to homes like mine every night. I feel lucky for the few episodes I got to share this show with him. Even more lucky to share with him how much he meant to all of us. #WeLoveYouAlex https://t.co/Z3bJMe1knZ

I will cherish the many memories I have shared with Alex Trebek that date back well before either of our careers took off. I will always be in awe of the way he faced the battle he fought so valiantly, and I'm devastated to lose my longtime friend. My heart is with his family, friends, co-workers and fans. There will never be another Alex Trebek and he will truly be missed.

I am so fortunate to have been in the presence of #AlexTrebek several times. This is from when I filled in @GMA & he was filling in for Charlie Gibson at the time. The answer is … kind, nice, smart, funny. The question… who is Alex Trebek? pic.twitter.com/LDurYgybAj

And other entertainers:

Alex Trebek, you brought us so much knowledge, both important and fun, through the years. Your final battle with cancer was heroic, and we are heartbroken that it has taken you from us. I'll take “Great TV Personas of Our Time” for $800. The heavens have all the answers now.

One time I got invited to the National Geographic gala in DC. So obviously I said yes. After dinner they started thanking donors. They named people who gave $1K. Then $10K. Then $100K. And then a guy who gave a MILLION. To the GEOGRAPHY BEE. And he stands up and it's Alex Trebek.

Alex Trebek quietly donated $2 million to @FordhamNYC to send students from Harlem to our university. He was a tremendously decent human being who brought class and generosity to our Fordham family. My heart goes out to his family and friends. #RIPAlexTrebex https://t.co/H6kt5YGQy5
