        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>&#8220;Jeopardy!&#8221;</strong>&nbsp;will soon be in all-encore mode.</p><p>TVLine has learned that the iconic <strong>Alex Trebek</strong>-hosted game show — which halted production roughly three months ago due to the coronavirus pandemic — will air its last original episode on Friday, June 12. Reruns begin airing on Monday, June 15, and will continue until the show deems it safe to resume production.</p><p>The syndicated phenom was able to delay running out of new episodes by rebroadcasting the primetime &#8220;Greatest of All Time&#8221; tournament during the first two weeks of May (bookended by reruns of champ Ken Jennings’ first and last episodes from his legendary 74-game winning streak).</p><p>&#8220;Jeopardy!&#8221;&#8216;s two-week &#8220;Teachers Tournament,&#8221; production of which was completed just prior to the shutdown, concludes tonight.</p><p>A decision on when to restart production on &#8220;Jeopardy!&#8221; is further complicated by Trebek’s immunocompromised condition; the multi-Emmy winner is battling Stage 4 pancreatic cancer.</p><p>In January, Trebek told reporters at the Television Critics Association winter press tour that he has no plans to sign off the long-running quiz show “<strong>in the near future</strong>.” Two months later, he announced that he had beaten the <strong>one-year survival rate for the disease</strong>. “The one-year survival rate for Stage 4 pancreatic cancer patients is 18 percent,” he said. “I’m very happy to report that I have just reached that marker.”</p><p>Meanwhile, fellow Sony-produced game show &#8220;Wheel of Fortune&#8221; — which airs immediately following &#8220;Jeopardy!&#8221; in many US markets — will continue to mix new episodes with reruns throughout the summer, according to a studio insider.</p>]]></content:encoded>
