Watch: 'Jeopardy!' theme song gets the Sting treatment

By Megan Armstrong | Last updated 3/18/21

Jeopardy! is doing its best to forge ahead following Alex Trebek's death last November, and Wednesday, that meant inviting Sting to remix the beloved theme song:

Sting added lyrics to the instantly recognizable jingle: "Of all the things in my CV / Everything in life from A to Z / But how I wish my ma could see / Here I am, on Jeopardy!"

The beloved trivia game show also featured a Sting-only category in Thursday's episode.

Trebek hosted Jeopardy!'s daily syndicated show from 1984 up until his untimely death at 80 years old from pancreatic cancer. Trebek's final episode hosting aired Jan. 8. Longtime journalist Katie Couric has most recently stepped in as the guest host, and her two-week stint will conclude with Friday's episode.
