Per the link above, "Wheel of Fortune" host Pat Sajak, age 73, is expected to miss the next 2 weeks of tapings of "Wheel of Fortune" (which he's hosted for 38 years since taking over the network "Wheel" for original host Chuck Woolery and has been host of the nighttime Syndie "Wheel" since its 1983 inception) after having Emergency Surgery to Correct a Blocked Intestine.

In Pat's absence, long-time co-host Vanna White (his co-host since 1982) will serve as the Interim Main Host while Pat recovers from the Successful Surgery for at least the next 2 weeks worth of tapings.

Get well soon, Pat.

Pat Sajak is recovering from an operation? I'm surprised because Pat has always been full of energy and fit as a fiddle and i'm glad it was nothing serious because Pat Sajak brings a lot of fun to Wheel Of Fortune and i'm glad that if anything happened to Pat Wheel Of Fortune would lose it's fun. But Vanna White will be an excellent understudy considering she used to host the video games of Wheel Of Fortune in the 90's. I bet Pat Sajak will talk about his surgery when he returns to Wheel Of Fortune in the end segment with Vanna because his commentary with Vanna is so fun to watch at the end

Hope Sajak is recovering so Vanna can do good as the interim main host

Wishing Pat a speedy & complete recovery from his surgery!

If Vanna's hosting, who will turn the letters?

TV Guy · 11-09-2019, 09:46 PM

They don’t turn anymore. Vanna is just window dressing - they light up and reveal themselves automatically.

Schmoopie · 11-10-2019, 02:07 AM

Oh my... Hope he recovers soon! But Vanna should be interesting as the host!

Pat Sajak makes his first public appearance since undergoing emergency surgery

The Wheel of Fortune host, who underwent emergency surgery for a blocked intestine earlier this month, attended the Washington Capitals game over the weekend.

Glad he’s back and wishing him the best.
