Posted by Sampo, on November 8th, 2020  Game show legend Alex Trebek, the beloved “Jeopardy!” host who showed dignity and perseverance in dealing with a stage-4 pancreatic cancer diagnosis, died at his home Nov. 8. He was 80.
MSTies may remember he was mentioned in a host segment in episode 1202- ATLANTIC RIM.
Trebek was synonymous with longtime top-rated “Jeopardy!,” the brainiest of TV quiz shows, which he hosted since its syndicated revival premiered in 1984 (Art Fleming hosted an earlier NBC version from 1964 to 1975.). Will Ferrell’s “Saturday Night Live” impersonation both underlined and burnished Trebek’s exalted cultural status.
The Washington Post has a nice retrospective.
Posted by Sampo, on November 4th, 2020  SINAI, SOUTH DAKOTA–Actress, dancer and choreographer Smith Wordes died here of cancer Oct. 19. She was 65.
She began acting in the 1960s and in the 1970s began working as a professional dancer and then as a choreographer. She appeared on dozens of TV shows and a few movies, including “Beverly Hills Cop III” and “Star Trek: First Contact.” She is perhaps best known for her choreography work with Michael Jackson. She had a featured role in his “Smooth Criminal” music video.
MSTies might recall her delightful turn (using the stage name Smith Evans) in episode 814- RIDING WITH DEATH as Buffalo Bill’s girlfriend Tina, aka Cupcake.
There’s a brief remembrance on this Michael Jackson-centered web site.
Thanks to Duane for the heads up.
