Why to watch
- Pat Sajak goes for one last spin on 'Wheel of Fortune'
- When: Sajak hosts his final episode June 7 on ABC.
- What to know: After four decades and three Emmys, the beloved host is ready for retirement.
- He’s not leaving Wheel of Fortune entirely. He plans to stick around for a few years behind the scenes as a consultant.
- Entertainment reporter David Artavia told me that along with Vanna White, new host Ryan Seacrest will put a new spin on the show — pun intended.
- “[Sajak] has made such an impact on this whole country. He’s become a companion, a best friend to a lot of people,” Seacrest told Fox News.
- Why I’ll be watching: I typically like to put a game show on in the background, but be anxiously cheering for whoever wins to bankrupt the network with their enormous winnings in Sajak’s honor.
