The formerly infallible tribier show has been recently humanized by scandal. And the scandal is mostly centred around one individual, a guy named mike richards. He was the guy who was chosen to replace saint alex trebec. claire mc near at the ringer had been reporting on the search for alex trebeck' replacement for months before her reporting changed the trajectory of the search. This week i was diagnosed with stage four pancreatic cancer. I joked with friends that the cancer won't kill me, the kamo treatments will.
