It was announced on ABC Eyewitness News that Alex Trebek, the long-time host of JEOPARDY! has Stage 4 pancreatic cancer--the same disease that took BONANZA actors Michael Landon and Pernell Roberts.
I don't know if it will do any good, but if fans of this show will pray...well, who knows?
This thread will probably be moved to a TV board, but I thought that I'd inform my friends on the Classic Films board. I think I'd get more responses here.
Thank you, all.

He wont get through that. But i wish him good luck. Oh, I dunno. Valerie Harper was diagnosed with brain cancer in 2013, and given, at most, three years. Yet, six years later, she's still around. Thank God! I love her. I do agree that pancreatic cancer is notoriously difficult to treat.

But pancreatic cancer is among the worst you can get, and it usually kill you pretty fast.

I don't think anyone could replace him on Jeopardy and be nearly as great. Godspeed Mr. Trebek.

It's a terrible disease with a 7% survival to 5 years.
I think Jimmy Carter had the same thing and he actually beat it!! His brother,

Has Drew Carey been successful replacing Bob Barker on THE PRICE IS RIGHT? I don't know 'cause I never watch that show.
