Alex Trebek, Vanna White, and Pat Sajak aren’t going anywhere anytime soon. According to The Hollywood Reporter, the hosts of Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune have renewed their contracts through the 2019-2020 season.
Both syndicated series, which are distributed by CBS, have already been renewed for the 2017-2018 season. Currently, Wheel of Fortune is in its 34th season and Jeopardy is airing its 33rd.
From Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy executive producer Harry Friedman:
Pat, Vanna and Alex are beloved by generations of TV viewers, and the enduring popularity of Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy is a testament to their incredible talents. All of us at Wheel of Fortune, Jeopardy and Sony Pictures Television are thrilled that they will continue through the 2019-20 season.”
What do you think? Do you watch Wheel of Fortune and/or Jeopardy? Are you glad they’ll both be on for more seasons?
Why has Wheel been taken off of Channel 19?
My weeknights wouldn’t be the same without Pat, Vanna and Alex!
If they’ve been renewed why do we keep seeing reruns?
Canceling either of these shows would be unAmerican. They are both educational and fun to watch at a time when much of today’s programming is negative and worthless.
Please do NOT cancel either of those shows–Wheel of Fortune or Jeopardy!!! Have watched for years and years & are favorites!
Love both shows. They are a rule in my house……it’s the only thing allowed from 7 to 8 PM.
I have been watching Wheel ofFortune since Chuck Woolery and Diane Flug (not sure of spelling) were doing the show. I even remember when they announced their young son had passed away.Many of us love the show and would greatly miss it. Both shows are great just the way they are!!
I have always loved wheel of fortune and jeopardy. I like the hosts the way they are. Don’t change a thing. I am happy they are staying.
I hope Wheel of Fortune will have a new theme song that sounds similar to the British version. Like this. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qudBorWiwPE
No way, I would not watch either show without them.
I like Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy. I just wish they would find some new hosts to take over Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy for the 2020-2021 season. Like CBS did when Drew Carey took over from Bob Barker to become the new host of The Price Is Right.
I agree.
Fantastic, from childhood to adulthood…
These two shows are a American comfort food…
Great, I watch both shows with hubby. I have fond memories of watching Jeopardy years ago when my mom was still here to watch with me. She was the one that got me started on these shows. Perfect choices for hosts too.
