Longtime "Wheel of Fortune" host Pat Sajak has quick, witty remarks when it comes to the beloved game show.
Earlier this week, a contestant criticized a puzzle after failing to answer correctly.
In the recap of the "Wheel of Fortune" video titled "Jill’s Bonus Round," Sajak is seen highlighting the failed puzzle moment and what happened behind the scenes.

"You had a puzzle that you think you should have solved, and you didn’t," he began. "And then she blamed me during commercial."
During the bonus round, player Jill attempted to guess the phrase on the letter board with the category "What Are You Doing?".
The "Wheel of Fortune" puzzle read, "_ _ _ C _ N _ _ _ R _ _ _ N _ _ N," after Jill chose the letters "C, M, H, A," as she added on to the provided letters of "RSTLNE."
The 77-year-old host then said, "You’re not going to get a whole lot of help. In fact, that is it. And it looks tough for me."
"Maybe something will pop into your head," he encouragingly added.
Jill did her best to solve the puzzle, "Blocking our… score… hmm… Working our… ahh no!"
Once the buzzer sounded off, the remaining letters were revealed and read, "Voicing our opinion."
"You weren’t going to get it… just a little late," Sajak reacted to the failed puzzle guess.
She laughed and replied, "What kind of puzzle is that?"
After laughter was heard from the surprised audience, Sajak jokingly snapped back, "It’s a puzzle you didn’t solve."
Jill lost out on a chance to win $40,000 during the "Wheel of Fortune" bonus round.
"It’s getting testy here on Christmas," Sajak added after he revealed the prize envelope.
