This week is an unbelievably bittersweet one for Jeopardy! fans, as the final episodes hosted by Alex Trebek have begun to make their debut. The episodes, which were filmed just days before his passing on November 8th, definitely have a lot of emotions tied around them, as fans are using the occasion to honor Trebek’s iconic legacy as a host. On Monday’s episode of the syndicated game show series, Trebek’s legacy took an oddly sentimental direction, with a clue that celebrated his cameo in the upcoming film Free Guy. In a video from the episode, which you can check out below, Free Guy star Ryan Reynolds helps deliver a clue for a Jeopardy! question, in which the contestants were tasked with guessing “non-playable character”. Reynolds quote-tweeted the video calling it “an honour” and “a little heartbreaking” to be included with Trebek in these final episodes.
It’s an honour (and a little heartbreaking) to be with #AlexTrebek one last time on @Jeopardy 🇨🇦 https://t.co/YQ3FDo3n6m
