I am really going to miss Pat Sajak. He was in my home many nights in my 45 years of life. Thank you for your service and to entertain America for over 40 years. You are amazing.

You want the reason for his retirement? He's 77 years old and has been hosting the show for 41 years. He wants to retire. Thats it. Thats all we need to know.

I watched from start to finish Mr. Sajak is a good man and will be forever missed. HAPPY RETIREMENT SIR you deserve it

No offense to loyal viewers BUT face it everyone is entitled to retirement, not everyone gets to choose this time, best wishes for a healthy retirement🎉

My wife and I will miss you pat. I wanted to meet you and participate in the show but unfortunately my health wouldn’t let. Enjoy your retirement you deserve it. All the best Glenn and Lou W

Please get his name right he certainly deserves that much recognition

The name is Say-jack NOT Saw-jack. AI is so scrawed.

41 years, and you say his name wrongly? Thank you Pat and Vanna.

I retired at 60 years old a few years ago. High stress responsibilities. Lots of hours. Wishing Sajak the best, and he is no doubt grateful for his well-earned long standing career.

Enjoy your retirement Pat

"Pat Sajak Reveas the SAD reason for his Retirement"? His reason was because he wanted to spend more time with his family.That is a SAD reason? It is amazing how deceptive you can be to get others to listen! ! Tis is called "BAIT & SWITCH"

Happy retirement, Pat! You deserve it. Spend time with your family and travel the world. Many thanks for over 40 years of “Wheel”….

Pat was also a radio DJ in Vietnam and served in the Army

Welcome home brother. I left Saigon in 1965 and listened to Adrian Cronauer. Sorry I never heard your show. However, my wife and I have enjoyed Wheel from your beginning there and watched your last show. I am so happy you have new goals and wish you the very best. Robert 😎🌵

I’m gonna miss you very much Pat! Thank you for showing and sharing your love and kindness to everyone!

Pat and Vanna were the greatest duo in game show history.....😮

I missed a lot of early morning college classes because I couldn't turn off Jack Parr, the GREATEST talk show host/interviewer of all time!

Always a gentleman and an incredibly talented host...in my opinion the best of the best and is irreplaceable. I can only hope that Ryan Seacrist will succeed in hosting the show .

He was great..I wish him the best..

The title is clickbait. There is no sad reason as implied. He simply decided to retire and enjoy time with his family.

If you're going to report on Pat please say his last name right.

Love Pat and Vanna and the show. Pat has great comedy so that's extra special ❤❤❤😢🙏.

I will miss Pat because the show was on at 7 PM every night in my home and now I'm in my golden years retired. Will still watch it as long as I can. Vanna also I love her on the show . my best wishes to you Pat I think you will always be remembered as the big wheel. Love Marilyn Rinaldi

Happy Retirement Pat!!!!...thank you for 40+ years of Wheel

Thanks pat for all 40yrs of hosting Wheel of Fortune it was a great show watching you and Vanna! Will miss you! From AKRON, OHIO ❤❤😊😊

Wow go miss you Mr Pat Sajak 😢❤

Thank you for you service in the military and for keeping us entertained with your gane show.Now it is your turn to be entertained enjoy your retirement and have fun.Wishing you the best.

Always a gentleman and consummate host... the best of the very best and in my opinion irreplaceable. I can only hope Ryan Seacrist will be able host the show and carry on the tradition begun by Pat. Happy Retirement Pat Sajak you certainly deserve it!

7:33. WTF? You get what you pay for with AI -- garbled nonsense.

Thank-You for the Memories Pat Sajak ~ you were the best ~ What a Team you and Vanna were ~ irreplaceable !

The state of late night talk shows is bad. I remember Pat's show and it was excellent and well worth bringing back. I hope he does this if he gets tired of sitting at home!

Hmmmm. The narrator accidentally pronounced Sajak's name correctly. Twice.

Excellent presentation. As a military veteran, enjoyed Pat's armed forces broadcast in Saigon. Thanks John Fallaw

He will be missed I wish him a happy retirement and many more years of health and happiness❤🎉🎉❤❤❤🙏🙏

Met Pat Sajak some years ago while in Los Angeles to see a Kings hockey game. They were playing the St Louis Blues. Gretzky was on the team then. I got up to go to the lobby, and he was standing in the exit way to get there. I spoke to him with the usual comments. I wish I could remember the year. Gretzky retired some 20 + years ago so it was quite a few years. My wife and I had travelled from Las Vegas to see Gretzy play that night. We are from Brantford Canada (Gretzky's home town) and I'll add our son played with him for a few young years of his career. School mates. It was a treat to meet Pat Sajak.

He will be missed

I agree with DXKRAMER!!! Why do people have to add these untrue titles to videos. This man telling this video story is driving me crazy the way he says "Sajak"!!!!

This is not a surprise, though it’s sad, specially it was one of best shows of my beloved mom in heaven.

You will be missed by millions, including me!

Thank God he is still alive alot of people don't get his age

So long as Vanna is there I will watch!

Stop saying sawjack please

Great memories thanks

He is also Chairman of the board at Hillsdale College in Hillsdale Michigan and is building a multi media program there

When he is replaced, it should be with another male host. If female becomes the host, I think the show will slowly loose it following. I do not watch too much, but show is entertaining. I do hope whoever becomes new host, the show will continue to be successful. 😮

I’m guessing the announcer reading this script is a computer. Sayjack, not Sawjack.

Happy retirement Pat

PLEASE Learn how to say his name

This person who made the comment below is very sick

Say - jack is how you say it!

Vanna hasn't actually been a "letter turner" for decades. Her job was taken over by high tech yrs ago, but they kept her on for decoration I presume.

He might be a icon, but everyone is replace able,humans are not designed to work whole life..

Who is going to take his place? I heard it would be Ryan from American Idol?

His last name is pronounced Say Jack = Sajak. You pronounced it correctly the first time.

Mr. Announcer, From start to finish you did an excellent description of the host of Wheel of Fortune. "BUT" INSULTED AND BUTCHERED HIS NAME 😮. Sawjok Sajok Sajock, WTH! Throughout the video if you said his last name correctly 5 times, that was alot for as many times you kept saying it. Go listen to yourself. If you respect "Pat Sajack"you'll take this video down and go redo your voice over. After 41 years, he has earned the respect of having his NAME PRONOUNCED CORRECTLY!!!

THE LEAST TOP REWIND COULD HAVE DONE IS GET THIS NARATOR TO PRONOUNCE SAJAK CORRECTLY. IT'S SAY -JACK.

15:11 AI actually says his name right.

You will be missed Pat !!😢!

Say-jack or Sar-jag, make up your algorithm, at least stay consistent!

Narrator butchers Pat's name pronounced SAY JACK Get some rest you need it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Maggie will probably be the next letter turner when Vanna retires.

Who is Saw-jock??

Where did they get this narrator?

❤

I wish this guy could pronounced his last name right. It’s Say Jack.

I’m waiting. I’m waiting till he pronounce his name, right?😂

This has “what you can expect with AI” ? Sajack, Sayjack, AI-jack.

It’s pronounced SAY-JACK!

No Sajak No Show !

Why cant they just have an interview with pat and vanna so we can from them instead of al the computer?

Why can't this guy say Pat Sajak name right sound?

You people are wrong Ryan sea crest is the new host on wheel of fortune that was announced on the last show you should try to get your facts straight!

What’s with the various pronounciations of Sajak’s name? I suspect it is a bot.

He can’t even say his name right!!! Don’t know why they keep using this announcer as he often misspeaks!!!!???

It depends on what part of the country you grew up in is how you pronounce people's names

I'm not too fond of these videos with computer-generated announcing with every name, including Pat Sajak being pronounced wrong. Also, the title says that Pat will reveal his sad reason for retiring which turns out to be that he wants to spend more time with his family. What is sad about that.

I would say health issues, he wants to retire while his health still allows him to enjoy life with his family.

Misleading title to video! It's a good video telling the sequence of events of Pat Sajak's life, but the title should therefore portray that. Instead it leads you to believe that there is some "sad" untold truth as to why Pat is retiring. And there's not. It's just the traditional reason... he's 77yo and ready, wanting to spend more time with his family. I hate when videos try to "trick" us into clicking! And PS) Get his name correct! He deserves that much!

Yes he needs to say his name coo

It is sad that a person cannot retire without criticism from someone who does not know how to say his name correctly.

Should retire together with Vanna in 2026

It just sucks. I don't lose any sleep over it though. Call me a Luddite, in a sense, but I dislike auto tune too. You're right using A.I.'s especially ones' that mess up is just annoying to me. It is lazy and makes me cringe sometimes though.

MAGGIE Will take VANNA PLACE WHEN SHE DECIDES TO RETIRE. 💗👍

I heard Ryan Seacreast is taking over

It’s Say Jack you Mo Ron .You need to retire!

This good man🤲 IWill pry Helth is inshallah good

PAT SAJAK WAS A GUEST ON SUPER PASSWORD WITH BERT CONVY

Announcer....Dude..... It's Say----Jak

SAY JACK is the pronunciation!!

SawJack? Why not Sewcrest? He "live with" Kelly Ripa.

Who cares?? He is a "regular" guy and deserves to retire while still able to enjoy it. Those who are upset by his retiring need to get a life that doesn't involve being glued to a stupid tv. There are other things to do with your time. Find one and leave the man alone.

Vanna should replace Pat. Pats daughter should replace Vannas sign turning. That's the ONLY correct way to do it!!!

O YOU WASTED OUR TIME AND NEVER EXPLAINED THE SAD REASON WHY HE IS LEAVING?!

Its SAjak not sojok. You would think this guy would know that after 40 years.

Never cared for him. Something about his personality rubbed me the wrong way!

Not saw-jack

Stop using ai readers.

A - I translates like phorn imagrints

DNG IF YOU CANT SAY HIS NAME RIGHT DONT SAY IT AT ALL WRONG THE HELL

Odd pronunciation by the announcer of this site
