Viewers Are Divided On Ryan Seacrest In New ‘Wheel Of Fortune’ Promo

With Pat Sajak’s four-decade run as Wheel Of Fortune’s beloved host, the show is finally moving on in preparation for the new season with Ryan Seacrest as Pat’s replacement and Vanna White still turning the letters as an enduring familiar sight on Wheel of Fortune. Although Ryan’s new role has been met with pushback from any fans of the program, it appears he is here to stay.

The Wheel Of Fortune’s official Instagram page recently dropped a promotional video showing a preview of Ryan and Vanna announcing the show’s comeback this fall. “Ryan and Vanna are READY! Who else is,” the caption read.

Vanna and her new co-host can be seen engaging in various goofy activities with big smiles on as they gave fans a glimpse of what is to come this September. Rather than be excited, many fans in the comments expressed their disappointment at the reality of Pat’s exit, as they have yet to move on.

Thankfully, Ryan received some support from a few fans, who are willing to let him prove himself. “For me personally, I’m indifferent to him. I’m going to give him a chance.
