LOL. That reminds me of a Jack Nickolson movie where he retired as an insurance guy and prepared a detailed description of everything he did. His replacement threw the whole thing in the garbage without even looking at it. I think that is typical of a new guy who replaces a retiree.

Allowed?

Ever think that it was it was a mutual decision?

It's something that is done all of the time...

And "re-runs" are not him "showing up to host the show again"...

mid-September is the new season with Ryan Seacrest. Enjoy Pat for 3 more months

Tonight 6/12 is a repeat of 1/24/24.

With all the options for TV entertainment, you will see a young Pat for the next 100 years.

Exactly
Someone pointed it out earlier, none of this stuff is live programming.....it’s taped...in the can as they say. This is how it’s done across the board....the networks launch everything in the fall. He’s been paid and they’re just finishing out the season whether it’s a recent taping or a few months old. It’s business. I have no emotional attachment to Pat Sajak but I’m pretty sure the reboot/reimagined product with Seacrest will look nothing like a Pat episode...except for an older Vanna.

Every time I see Wheel....I think of Raymond (Dustin Hoffman) in Rain Man. “Look at the studio filled with glamorous merchandise. Fabulous and exciting bonus prizes. Over $150,000 waiting to be won as we present our big bonanza of cash on Wheel of Fortune”!

I have noticed, that a lot of dead people keep turning up on television as well.:icon_wink:

So when he reported he was leaving…they said it was his last season not his last show. Of all things to worry about.
