Pat Sajak and Wheel of Fortune have been around for as long as 99% of guys posting here have been alive and never changed much or got significantly worse. It's sad to see Pat go but Ryan Seacrest is a perfectly good TV host and Wheel doesn't attract high verbal midwits like Jeopardy so the odds of clues and contestants getting extra libtarded suddenly are low.
Remember back when they'd have the prize round where they'd pan a camera around a room full of furniture and appliances and the contestant would be shown in a little circle in the corner of the screen while they chose what they wanted?
"Ooh, ooh, I'll take the Kirby vacuum! And the love seat and sofa combo!"
They stopped doing that around 1989, and the pacing improved massively.
God, I'm going to miss Pat. I've been a Wheel fan for well over 30 years, and even applied to be on the show last year. I wasn't chosen, but I'm going to keep trying, no matter who is hosting.
I guess then you'd have to look at how Price Is Right changed after Bob Barker retired as an example.
I haven't been home sick from school in decades so I haven't seen the Price is Right in about that long.
Then you would be shocked at how different a show it is today compared to when you last saw it.
I happened to catch a few minutes of it randomly not long ago. There was a gay looking black dude modeling one of the cars instead of the usual hot blonde and I thought “Oh, price is right isn’t even safe from the globohomo”
