Hi there! My name's Sean! I'm 21 years old, and I've got autism. This may sound like a very stupid question, but since "Wheel of Fortune" is one of my favorite television game shows, did you have any grandparents and / or great grandparents that you knew who died before 1983 (the year that "Wheel of Fortune" began airing in syndication) who would of loved or hated Pat Sajak and Vanna White on "Wheel of Fortune"? Because even though I wasn't born until 1991, but my great-grandpa died in 1979 (2 years before Pat Sajak replaced Chuck Woolery and 3 years before Vanna White replaced Susan Stafford), and I'm not quite sure if my great-grandpa (who was born in 1903 and died in 1979 at the age of 76 years old) would of loved or hated Pat and Vanna on "Wheel of Fortune", since I think my grandpa told me that my great-grandpa's favorite television game shows were from the 1950s and 1960s, like "What's My Line?" with John Charles Daly, "I've Got a Secret" with Gary Moore, "Beat the Clock" and "To Tell the Truth" with Bud Collyer (who also died before 1983 in 1969), and "Password" with Allen Ludden (who also died before 1983 in 1981, the year Pat took over for Chuck). But I also think my great grandpa also liked the television game shows of the 1970s like "Match Game" with Gene Rayburn, "The Price Is Right" with Bob Barker, "The Hollywood Squares" with Peter Marshall, "Let's Make a Deal" with Monty Hall, and "Family Feud" with Richard Dawson, before he died in 1979.
