Much deserved, but man it’s the end of an era.

Much deserved, but man it’s the end of an era. Indeed it is. I've been there since the "taboo" NBC daytime era, even remembered the Woolery episodes before then. I just finished Acid Washed Memories episode on Wheel too, good stuff. It'll probably be another celebrity host, which isn't always a failure, but a reminder that game show host is no longer its own unique job title in entertainment. Or...what IS Chuck doing now? Never mind, I don't want to know ;-) |

I want Pat to come clean with "What's the stupidest/craziest/dumbest thing you've seen on the show that got censored" and "There is zero chance you made it 41 years without audibly groaning at something or flat out losing it laughing, what was it?"

Bob Barker's retired, Alex Trebek has passed. Pat Sajak is truly the last of his era. I hope he enjoys his retirement.

Think we're gonna see a campaign to get Levar Burton to host this show next?

He's done a great job but it will be nice to see a new face on the show. Just hope they hit a home run on the new host.

Wonder if Vanna will be following him shortly after. She's been on the show for around the same time, and it could be argued physically her job is a bit trickier given the walking she does (and in heels). Sure she's also 10 years younger than Pat, but the familiarity and losing that might be something she doesn't want to truly deal with either.

Not only that, but since they got the digital board, they don't really need a hostess, but tradition and all. Depends on how far Davies is willing to depart from said tradition, or not. |

"Wheel" as a game show in the US or UK always made me feel like my f***ing brain was melting. But kudos to Pat for sticking it out.

Has Pat hosted all the episodes all those years, or were there any with guest hosts sometime?

Would it be too esoteric to have Martin Short show up as Ed Grimly when they shoot Pat's final episode of Wheel?

Then when he left daytime, there were two other hosts. Didn't Pat and Vanna swap roles one April Fool's too? "Wheel" as a game show in the US or UK always made me feel like my f***ing brain was melting. For potentially different reasons, don't ever watch the UK Game Show "Countdown" then. |

Maybe he will be replaced by his hot daughter. This is a sentence that comes into my brain far too often when thinking about older celebrities with attractive daughters.  |
