CELEBRITY Wheel of Fortune has featured a bizarre NSFW puzzle that mashed up a wholesome TV show with a raunchy one.
Fans were in disbelief as Pat Sajak, 75, asked the three A-listers to awkwardly solve for a suggestive phrase.

On Sunday’s celebrity Wheel of Fortune, Michael Rappaport faced Jaime Camil and June Diane Raphael.
The “before and after” puzzle was looking for “Gilmore Girls Gone Wild.”
The three contestants looked stunned as they were asked to solve it.
The phrase seemed to combine the beloved TV series Gilmore Girls, which aired on the WB, and Girls Gone Wild – an adult series.
‘JUST NO’
One astonished fan wrote: “Watching Celebrity Wheel of Fortune. Answer to a Before/After puzzle was Gilmore Girls Gone Wild.”
“Gilmore girls gone wild?” another wrote with three cry-laugh emojis.
“No. For the love of TV and game shows, just no,” wrote a third.
“I cannot unsee that now” wrote a fourth.

Even the official Wheel of Fortune Twitter account chimed in and wrote: “Hey I just handle the social media” with a shrug emoji.
PUZZLING
Longtime Wheel of Fortune host Pat seemed disillusioned with his job on-screen lately, and the show beyond the pale, almost four decades since its first spin.
During one episode of the regular show that aired last month, Vanna White, 65, awkwardly smiled as she stood by a puzzle that read: “Warm, Wet and Wild.”
“Ew,” one fan tweeted sharing the unfortunate image.
“???” tweeted another sharing the same NSFW screenshot.
Last month a puzzle presented by the show appeared to have racist roots, as it was tied to a rhyme from the slavery era and could have used research in avoiding.
The solution the puzzle was “EENIE MEENIE MINY MOE CATCH A TIGER BY THE TOE.”
The category was “Rhyme Time,” but the children’s nursery rhyme has a sordid past in America.
According to Vox, the original version of this rhyme is “rooted in the slave trade,” and was not used by children but by slave-owners.
END OF AN ERA?
Pat previously hinted at stepping away from the game he has hosted for four decades alongside Vanna.
He told ET back in September: “In most television shows by this time, you would have said, ‘That’s probably enough,’ but this show will not die.”
“It appears I may go before the show,” Pat added.
The TV star- who has received plenty of backlash recently for a controversial photo – then said: “Years go by fast. We’re getting near the end. It’s been a long [time].
