FULL STORY: It’s the end of an era: 76-year-old Pat Sajak is retiring as the host of “Wheel of Fortune”. The 41st season that starts in September will be his last. But he’ll be sticking around as a consultant for three years after.
He says, quote, “It’s been a wonderful ride, and I’ll have more to say in the coming months. Many thanks to you all . . . If nothing else, it’ll keep the clickbait sites busy!”
Pat’s been the host of the syndicated version since it debuted in 1983. There’s no word who will replace him.
(Chuck Woolery was, of course, the original host of the original version of “Wheel”. He left in 1981.)
