‘Wheel of Fortune’ Gets Premiere Ratings Bump in Major Markets for Ryan Seacrest’s Host Debut
New "Wheel of Fortune" host Ryan Seacrest kicked off as new host of the syndicated "Wheel of Fortune" with a ratings boost in the major TV markets.
In the opener, Seacrest noticeably didn’t mention the person whose shoes he was replacing by name, however: Pat Sajak, who signed off from the show in June after more than 40 years as host. (Sajak and Seacrest, along with White, appeared in a promo together this summer, serving as more of an official pass-the-baton moment.) Sajak will still be seen this fall in ABC’s primetime edition of “Celebrity Wheel of Fortune,” which reps his last turn on the show.
