JEOPARDY!'s resident living legend Johnny Gilbert has turned 95 years young on Thursday.
The announcer has introduced each contestant and doled out his signature "This is Jeopardy!" line without fail for four decades.
While 74-time champ Ken Jennings, 49, and Mayim Bialik, 47, may have taken over for the late, great Alex Trebek, some things never change.
Johnny, the voice millions know all too well from every single Jeopardy! episode, hit the big 9-5.
And naturally, Jeopardy! posted a moving tribute to Instagram as no one is more worth celebrating.
They wrote: "This ... is ... Johnny! We're celebrating the legendary voice of #Jeopardy! a little extra today."

In the accompanying photo, Johnny could be seen in one of his signature varsity jackets looking ageless by the clue board.
Gilbert is in the Guinness World Records book for having the longest career as a game show announcer, a title he scored in 2017.
He's also by far the longest-serving cast member on Jeopardy!, - a job he now does from his at-home studio.
'PROTECT THIS MAN AT ALL COSTS'
Fans just had to bow down in the comments section as 95 is remarkable to be doing any job, let alone be the voice of Jeopardy!.

"Protect this man at all costs," one person wrote.
"Hard to believe he's 95" wrote another.
"Happy birthday, Johnny!!!! You are a legend and super appreciated!!!! Whether he’s in studio or WFH, he’s one of the GOATs. Happy Birthday, Johnny!" wrote a third.
A fourth penned: "As a Jeopardy guy for many decades, wishing the voice of Jeopardy! a very Happy Birthday—I’m sure Alex is smiling from above."
'I'M OLDER THAN GOD BUT I'M STILL HERE'
Johnny was signed to be Jeopardy!'s announcer when Alex was signed as host in 1984- a job he did until his passing in 2020 at age 80.
The legend recently shared on the Inside Jeopardy! podcast: "I had never worked with him," but they were friends in the game show circuit.
"When they decided on me, I think Alex had a lot to do with it."
Born in Newport News, Virginia, Johnny served in the United States Army, where he received his first television assignment as MC.
From there, he moved to New York and, eventually, California, his now-70-year-long announcing career taking off from there.
Johnny made a speech at a Jeopardy! event in 2022, looking dapper as ever in a Hollywood-style white blazer.
"Jeopardy! is bigger and better than ever," he stated.
