For those who were hoping to see Pat Sajak on their screens once again, it may be a little while before this happens.
Back in July, fans of Wheel of Fortune learned the former longtime game show host would be back on the air to host his final season of Celebrity Wheel of Fortune. Folks were going to watch him and Vanna White this fall, with the premiere episode expected to air on Monday, October 14.
Well, in a surprise turn of events, TV Insider revealed on October 11 the new season of Celebrity Wheel of Fortune would not be airing on the date viewers anticipated. What’s more, the show won’t be back on the small screen until early 2025, as ABC (the network the series airs on) decided to prioritize something more timely during this period of the year.

As for the reason behind the sudden date change for Celebrity Wheel of Fortune, a report from Deadline shared it’s likely due to a scheduling switch up for ABC. The network decided to add Monday Night Football to its telecast for the fall 2024, airing a total of 17 games throughout the NFL season (14 games simulcast with ESPN and/or ESPN+, including playoffs, and three exclusive games on just ABC).
While Celebrity Wheel of Fortune seemingly hasn’t addressed the surprise schedule change, it’s important to note it’s not the only show affected by the Monday Night Football switch. Both Press Your Luck and ABC News’ Scamanda were also pushed, and will now be released sometime in 2025 instead.
So, is there an official timeline of when we can see Pat back on TV again? Unfortunately, we don’t have an exact premiere date at the moment. But trust us — when we do eventually find out, we’ll be sure to keep you updated. After all, who wouldn’t want the chance to see Pat give out loads of money to celebrities playing for their favorite charities?
Let’s all keep our fingers crossed for an update soon!
