‘Wheel of Fortune’: Pat Sajak to Retire as Host After Season 41

Wheel of Fortune won’t look the same after Season 41.

Pat Sajak, who has been hosting the game show since it premiered in 1983, has announced that the upcoming season will be his last. “Well, the time has come. I’ve decided that our 41st season, which begins in September, will be my last,” he said in a statement to Bloomberg News. “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!)”
