=================
He passed away the day before I was born.
I have Airplane and Airplane II on a DVD somewhere, was given years ago, but haven't watched them yet.
He hosted the first version of the television game show Jeopardy!,
which aired on NBC from 1964 until 1975 and again from 1978 to 1979.
Hard to imagine anyone but Alex doing it, now. I've lost interest in the show, none of the new hosts hold up.
