Ryan Seacrest spoke with Willie Geist on Sunday (September 24th) about what he envisions for Wheel of Fortune when he takes over for longtime host Pat Sajak in the fall of 2024. “My version will be the version that is,” the American Idol host said with a laugh. “The game works. All you want to do is walk in and say, 'Good evening,' grab your devices and 'Here’s the first puzzle.'” He added, "Pat Sajak is an icon in this business, and he’s made (Wheel of Fortune) so comfortable for everybody to watch. I’m like a kid so excited about just seeing the set, you know, to walk out on that set."
