Jeopardy! host Alex Trebek was in a Los Angeles hospital on Sunday recovering from a mild heart attack.

Sony Television spokeswoman Paula Askanas said Trebek was admitted to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center on Saturday. She said Trebek, 71, is expected to fully recover and be back giving answers when Jeopardy! resumes production on a new season in July.

While he was in the hospital on Saturday, Jeopardy! won a Daytime Emmy award for best game show. Trebek has been hosting the show for 28 years.
