Pat Sajak’s “Hilarious” Banter with Anthony Anderson Has ‘Celebrity Wheel of Fortune’ Fans Cracking Up

Anthony Anderson made some big dough on Celebrity Wheel of Fortune last night, making a name for himself in the show’s hall of fame as he entered the final bonus round, but fans were more impressed with his quick-witted replies to Pat Sajak than they were with his playing technique. The Black-ish star wooed fans of the show in his debut appearance last night, thanks especially to his fantastic banter with both Sajak and Vanna White.

Anderson was playing alongside actress Marcia Cross and pro basketball player Karl-Anthony Towns last night when he won the fans over online. While playing, the actor frequently had hilarious outbursts — like telling the wheel to “stop” before it landed on skip a turn, or having a full on outburst when he flopped on a puzzle read “HAVING A MELTDOWN ON LIVE TELEVISION.”

“I don’t have my glasses on, Pat!” Anderson shouted as a joke, mimicking the solution.

“Who wouldn’t have a meltdown after missing that #CelebrityWheelOfFortune puzzle?” the official Celebrity Wheel of Fortune Twitter shared.

Later in the game, fans loved Sajak’s reference to Anderson’s hit TV show. When the actor selected a letter that wasn’t on the board, the game show host told him that he was “wrong-ish,” earning a bellow of laughter from the competitor.

“I know Pat was holding that ‘Wrong-ish’ bit for Anthony,” one user shared.

Ultimately, even though Anderson had a weak start to the game, he made it to the bonus round and ended up raising $75,300 for The Anderson Family Foundation, which helps underserved children in the public schools. And on top of Anderson’s generous donation with Celebrity Wheel of Fortune, he was just an all-around star on the show from the start.

“Anthony Anderson on #CelebrityWheelOfFortune is cracking me up,” one user shared while tuning in.

Celebrity Wheel of Fortune airs Sunday nights at 8/7c.
