On Friday night, Trebek claimed the Guinness World Record for "most game show episodes hosted by the same presenter." He has presided over Jeopardy! since
1984, hosting a total of 6,829 episodes. In the past three decades, Jeopardy! has
won 30 Emmy Awards, a record for a game show. Last year, TV Guide named the
syndicated series the greatest game show of all time.
