Vanna White celebrated the 40th anniversary of her Wheel of Fortune debut in December 2022, and now the syndicated version game show is hitting its 40th. But by the time the current, nighttime Wheel incarnation premiered — on September 19, 1983 — daytime versions of the show had been spinning for years. Read on for a chronology, Fortune fans. NBC introduced Wheel of Fortune as a daytime game show on January 6, 1975, with Chuck Woolery hosting and actor Susan Stafford turning the letters. Woolery, who’d go on to host the game shows Love Connection and Scrabble, told The Hollywood Reporter in 2021 that game-show mastermind Merv Griffin approached him to host a pilot called Shopper’s Bazaar, a proto-Wheel that also featured a roulette wheel and Hangman-like puzzles. NBC passed on that “horrible” pilot, Woolery explained, but when Griffin reconfigured the format and renamed it Wheel of Fortune, the network put in on the daytime schedule.

Whoopi Goldberg has apologised for her controversial comments about the Holocaust not being about race, for the second time.
Goldberg was suspended by ABC earlier this year after suggesting the Holocaust “was not about race” on the American talk show The View.
In a new interview published on 24 December, Goldberg appeared to repeat her past controversial view that the Holocaust “wasn’t originally” about race. Her remarks immediately received backlash from Jewish leaders who denounced the Ghost actor’s comments.
“My best friend said, ‘Not for nothing is there no box on the census for the Jewish race. So that leads me to believe that we’re probably not a race,’ ” Goldberg said.
“Nazis saw Jews as a race,” The Sunday Times reporter told Goldberg in the interview, to which she responded, “Yes, but that’s the killer, isn’t it? The oppressor is telling you what you are. Why are you believing them?...

An old episode of Chuck Woolery’s dating show Love Connection has resurfaced, and people can’t get enough of the two contestants.
The hit dating show, which lasted 11 seasons beginning in 1983 and running until 1994, followed blindly matched couples on their first dates, who would later reveal their first impressions to host Woolery in front of a live audience.
A particular clip of 1994 contestants Robin Dimiceli and Curt Levey has made the rounds on TikTok, with people applauding Dimiceli for absolutely “roasting” Levey.
“I like women who are deep, and she just didn’t seem like a deep kinda person. She seemed more like the kind of woman who probably knows all the colours of lipstick, but couldn’t tell you who the Vice President of the United States was,” Levey told Woolery.
Offering her judgement of Levey from their first phone call, Dimiceli quipped: “I thought he had a monotone voice,...

Emma D’Arcy has defended the depiction of incest in HBO’s Game of Thrones spin-off House of the Dragon.
The actor played an adult Rhaenyra Targaryen in five episode of the show’s fist season.
Like its predeccesor, House of the Dragon sparked debates among viewers over its exploration of incestuous relationships, with the marriage between Rhaenyra and Daemon (Matt Smith), her older uncle, a particularly significant plot point.
In an interview with The Guardian, D’Arcy argued that the show “acknowledged” the problematic nature of the relationship, subverting cinema’s storytelling norms.
“I think he is a deeply problematic character,” D’Arcy said, of Daemon. “Getting to see Rhaenyra being groomed as a child by her uncle confirms it, and refuses to allow an audience to wholly ignore the problematic nature of their relationship.”
They continued: “Within cinema, there is a long history of creating love interests out of problematic – particularly male – characters.

Vanna White is approaching her 40th anniversary with Wheel of Fortune and isn’t ready to stop turning those letter tiles just yet. Speaking to People ahead of her Lion Brand Yarn event at Jo-Ann Fabrics and Crafts, White opened up about her time on the show and the idea of handing over the reins to someone else. “I think when Merv Griffin chose both of us, 40 and 41 years ago, he saw something between us — a brother-sister type relationship,” White said, referring to her on-screen relationship with Wheel of Fortune host Pat Sajak. White and Sajak have hosted the show for the past four decades since taking over from original hosts Chuck Woolery and Susan Stafford. “And I think that is kind of what it is,” she continued. “[Griffin] saw that we would be able to get along, and we do. .” However, after 40 years, it’s not unreasonable to think...

After 40 seasons fronting the show, Pat Sajak has teased that he may be ready to relinquish his hosting duties on ABC’s Wheel of Fortune. But if he does decide to leave, who could possibly replace him and what does it mean for his long-time cohost Vanna White? Could she take over from Sajak, or will the show’s producers look to bring in a new face, or possibly a whole new hosting team? The show has been around since 1975 and was originally hosted by Chuck Woolery and Susan Stafford before Sajak took over in 1981. In 1983, a nighttime spinoff of the daytime show was announced, which he and Vanna have hosted ever since. During his tenure, Sajak has received 19 nominations for the Daytime Emmy Award for Outstanding Game Show Host, winning three times. So we ask, who in the current TV landscape would be perfect to take over Wheel of Fortune?...

The Wheel of Fortune, as we know it, could soon be over.
In a new interview celebrating his 40th year as host, Pat Sajak opened up about his future on the hit series.
"In most television shows by this time, you would have said, 'That’s probably enough,' but this show will not die," Sajak says of the show's resilience to Et.
"It appears I may go before the show," the star adds.
"Years go by fast. We're getting near the end. It's been a long [time]. We're not gonna do this for another 40 years. The end is near," he tells Et.
"... It's an honor to have been in people's living rooms for that long. People were out there welcoming us. We're happy and proud."
For now, the series is moving forward.
Earlier this month, it was revealed that Vanna White's puzzle board would be upgraded for the 40th season premiere.

“I never said that in the tweet,” maintained former game show host Chuck Woolery on Thursday. “I said that they were lying to us about it [Covid-19], and I mentioned a lot of different people.”
“But I was not so stupid as to think that it wasn’t real,” he continued. “I knew it was real, and I never said that it wasn’t real.”
“It’s a dangerous virus, it really is. So is the flu.”
Woolery is correct. Not about the coronavirus being in the same danger class as the flu, but about the exact words he used to describe the furor surrounding the pandemic.
On July 12, the former game show host tweeted, “The most outrageous lies are the ones about Covid 19 [sic]. Everyone is lying. The CDC, Media, Democrats, our Doctors, not all but most, that we are told to trust. I think it’s all about the election...

Just days after his full-throated rejection of all things coronavirus was retweeted by President Donald Trump, former game show host Chuck Woolery’s Twitter account was no more.
It was unclear on Wedesday evening whether the disappearance was related to a widespread hack Twitter experienced earlier on Wednesday, or whether Twitter or Woolery himself removed the account.
On Sunday Woolery wrote, “The most outrageous lies are the ones about Covid 19. Everyone is lying. The CDC, Media, Democrats, our Doctors, not all but most, that we are told to trust. I think it’s all about the election and keeping the economy from coming back, which is about the election. I’m sick of it.”
Trump retweeted the comment, which set off a firestorm and triggered questions from White House reporters as to whether Trump was attacking his own health officials’ assertions about the virus.

CBS News Catherine Herridge asked Trump, “You reposted a tweet yesterday saying that CDC and health officials are lying. You understand this is confusing for the public. So who do they believe? You, or the medical professionals like Dr. Fauci?”
“I didn’t make a comment,” Trump told Herridge. “I did. I reposted a tweet that a lot of people feel. But all I am doing is making a comment. I’m just putting somebody’s voice out there. There are many voices. There are many people that think we shouldn’t do this kind of testing, because all we do, it’s a trap.”
Portions of the interview aired on CBS This Morning on Wednesday and CBS Evening News with Norah O’Donnell on Tuesday.

McEnany tried to explain what the intent of Trump’s retweet was — blaming his displeasure on CDC leaks and “some rogue individuals.”
“The president, with his intent in that retweet, expresses displeasure with the CDC, some rogue individuals leaking guidelines prematurely,” she said. “You had a 63-page plan that was leaked prematurely. He believes that that misleads the American public when there...

Fox has dumped Love Connection, cancelling the Andy Cohen-hosted reboot after two seasons, a network rep confirms to TVLine.
The new Love Connection failed to win over audiences, drawing low ratings throughout its two-season run; the Season 2 finale last September drew an anemic 1.82 million viewers and a 0.5 demo rating.
“They cancelled it,” Cohen lamented Wednesday morning on SiriusXM’s The Howard Stern Show.
Love Connection tinkered with its polarizing format in Season 2, eliminating Season 1’s icky “love-or-money decisions” gimmick in favor of “more happy endings” for contestants. (TVLine’s initial review of Love Connection took issue with the smarmy twist.

Among the reactions so far:

Fox has renewed “Love Connection” for a second season, when Andy Cohen will return as host and co-executive producer. The revival of the former Chuck Woolery-hosted show sends hopeful singles on three dates in order to ditch the apps and find true love. Though there’s probably still a heart emoji involved in this whole old-school approach to modern-day dating. “Andy Cohen is a phenomenal host, not only because he has brought so much fun to the show but also because he truly wants these participants.

It's a second-generation Love Connection!
On Thursday night's episode of Love Connection, hosted by Andy Cohen, a young woman looking for love has a special surprise: Kenedi Smith's parents met on the original Love Connection, hosted by Chuck Woolery, back in 1992. Their meeting resulted in a "fairytale romance" and a marriage of 23 years!
Now the question is, can Kenedi find a relationship like the one her parents forged, and in the same way they did? Her mom and dad will even be in the audience.
The 22-year-old lives in California and says she was "little" when she first saw her parents' episode. "I always said, 'I want that!' I want to find love," she says. "It's hysterical, because now I actually get the chance!"
