Alex Trebek joined the show as its host in 1984. He and his staff invited Business Insider to be a fly on the wall during one of the show's production days. "Jeopardy!" is filmed on a soundstage at Sony Pictures Studios in Culver City, California.
Trebek, 76, said the show is a "well-oiled machine," staffed with loyal writers, producers, researchers, and stage crew, many of whom have been with the show for decades. Five episodes are taped a day, two days a week, three weeks a month.
Trebek reportedly earns an annual salary of $10 million, but a representative from "Jeopardy!" would not confirm this.
