Fans reactions to the whole facial hair saga has been all over the map with admirers and detractors.

What’s in store for tomorrow?

Last week Trebek opened the 35th season of “Jeopardy!” with his first-ever onscreen beard. In 1989 when the show started, Trebek wore a mustache and then in 2014 for the show’s 30th anniversary, he returned to his mustached-look for the first time in 13 years.

He has been clean-shaven most recently.
