Pat Boone has nothing to do with the 700 Club. In fact, even Pat Robertson retired from it this year.

Can't stand that guy.
Isn't he taking his dirt nap yet?

(1,184 posts)5. I think you mean Pat Robertson, not Pat Boone.
Though Pat Robertson himself apparently retired from the show earlier this year.
I also don't believe CBS is shutting down the 700 Club. This article is just about the local Atlanta affiliate not airing it anymore.

I see him on tv occasionally, hawking a walk-in bathtub.

His son has been hosting the show since then.
