Celebrity Wheel of Fortune Season 5 is set to premiere on October 14, 2024, on ABC at 8/7c. Season 5 will witness Pat Sajak, the host, take his final turn to host the show before bidding farewell. Pat Sajak had already retired from the Wheel of Fortune franchise after hosting the game show for 41 seasons and appearing in over 8000 episodes. Ryan Seacrest got the opportunity to fill the big shoe as a new co-host along with Vanna White for the coming season of Wheel of Fortune.

Season 5 was announced by the channel ABC early this year, and after Pat Sajak's announcement to retire from the original syndicate of the show on June 7, it was made clear that fans would get to see Pat spin the wheel one more time in the celebrity version. The lineup of the celebrities has not been disclosed yet.

ABC announced the premiere date on its official Instagram channel, @celebritywheeloffortune, on September 5, 2024, and the post reads:

"It's the final spin for Pat Sajak as host when Celebrity Wheel of Fortune premieres October 14 at 8/7c on ABC and Stream on Hulu."

What can you expect from Season 5 of the Celebrity Wheel of Fortune?

Celebrity Wheel of Fortune is all set to launch another fun and entertaining season with famous celebrities who will play on their luck to win the most and distribute the prize money to charity. As it welcomes new celebrities every episode, it would be fascinating for the fans to witness what each has to offer. Season 4 had celebrities from different industries, like Brendan Hunt, Melissa Villaseñor, and Joe Buck.

Season 5 would be honored with such celebrities once more to make it memorable, especially considering that this would be the last season for the celebrity guests to get to spin the wheel with Pat Sajak. However, Pat Sajak opened up about hosting the show for 40 years and expressed gratitude that he would host the celebrity version one more time before finally retiring from the scene. In an interview with his daughter, Maggie Sajak, he shared:

"Well, the time has come to say goodbye. It's been an incredible privilege to be invited into millions of homes night after night, year after year, decade after decade. And I've always felt that privilege came with the responsibility to keep this daily half-hour a safe place for family fun. No social issues, no politics, nothing embarrassing, I hope. Just a game."

Celebrity Wheel of Fortune will stream on ABC and ABC apps. Fans can download the episodes on their devices and watch them later. The show will also be available on Hulu to stream a day after the original episode has been released on ABC.
