Stephen Colbert’s Beard Wants to Face Off Against Alex Trebek’s Beard

Stephen Colbert has a title to defend: that of robustly-bearded show host. In a monologue on his Late Show on Tuesday night, Colbert admitted that his recently-acquired seasonal beard has already come in for serious competition on TV — from none other than Jeopardy! host Alex Trebek.

Jeopardy!, which recently returned to air for its 35th season, hasn't changed its game-show style. But its host sure has made a switch in the facial hair department.
