Fans trolled Pat Sajak for having the shortest retirement ever after ABC announced his new prime time hosting gig in the fall.

The end of an era came last month when iconic Wheel of Fortune host Pat Sajak announced his retirement after 43 years at the helm.

Well, that was then and this is now. Sajak is back, baby! He'll be hosting Celebrity Wheel of Fortune this fall.


ABC announced its fall lineup this week, and on it was an unexpected slot: Sajak's return to the Wheel of Fortune stage on October 7.

Of course, the internet is having quite a good time trolling Sajak for what they're calling the shortest retirement ever.

It's hard not to feel like they have a point—Sajak's final Wheel of Fortune episode JUST aired on June 7, and new host Ryan Seacrest is already slated to begin helming the show in September.

Seacrest even posted a heartfelt tribute to Sajak on Instagram after he took his final bow at the show.

Back already after just a month? Yeah, that's a pretty abrupt shift! And on social media, people couldn't help but laugh.

After all, it's pretty hard to miss Sajak if he... you know, doesn't actually leave.

Of course there were lots of comparisons to NFL star Tom Brady, who famously retired, then unretired, then retired again between 2022 and 2023.

And the jokes just kept coming.





Well, Celebrity Wheel of Fortune IS technically a different show, and he never retired from that one. But if this means we have to do a whole other round of heartfelt social media retirement celebrations, that's where we should draw the line!

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
