Pat Sajak's absence from 'Wheel of Fortune' bonus round sparks confusion and outrage.
"Wheel of Fortune" host Pat Sajak was replaced by announcer Jim Thornton during the bonus round, leaving fans confused. It turns out a contestant was a big fan of Thornton and requested him to host the show for a brief moment. The swap followed criticism of the show after a contestant guessed a bonus puzzle incorrectly. Despite missing out on the $45,000 prize, the contestant still took home $20,563.
