Pat Sajak is not a fan of an old school segment of "Wheel of Fortune."
During a recent episode of the long-running game show, Sajak showed his dismay after a contestant expressed fondness for the program’s original format which included a shopping round, reported TVLine.
“The most boring three minutes of television,” Sajak said of the retro segment which saw contestants shopping for prizes amid a rotating stage highlighting home furnishings, clothing, electronics and other goods.
Toward the end of the episode, Sajak elaborated on his dislike of the long-gone shopping round to co-host Vanna White.
“I don’t miss them,” he shared. “In retrospect [you think], ‘Oh, that was kind of fun,’ but, really, it was this thing going around with the [contestant’s] head in a circle … It was really not exciting television. We like it just the way it is.”
Sajak was not alone in the sentiment, as White agreed by saying the show “is so much better now.”
The reviled shopping segment was removed from "Wheel of Fortune" in 1987, four years after Sajak began hosting.
The 74-year-old has been showing his sassy side lately as he recently “finally snapped” at a contestant for being “ungrateful.”
Last month, Sajak temporarily lost his cool when a contestant questioned the wording of one of the phrases after correctly solving a puzzle.
“You won! Don’t argue, Darin!” Sajak responded while laughing. “You got the puzzle! Ungrateful players, I’ve had it!”
To make sure he knew he was joking, Sajak quickly added, “No, I’m just teasing. I finally snapped!”
