LOS ANGELES, June 27 (Reuters) - "American Idol" TV show host Ryan Seacrest said on Tuesday he will be the new host of "Wheel of Fortune" beginning in 2024, after Pat Sajak retires and ends his four-decade run on the daily syndicated U.S. game show. "I'm truly humbled to be stepping into the footsteps of the legendary Pat Sajak," Seacrest posted on Instagram and Twitter. loadingloadingSeacrest paid homage to Sajak and longtime co-host Vanna White and said he looked forward to "spinning the wheel and working alongside the great Vanna White." He ranks as the longest-serving host of any U.S. TV game show, surpassing the 35 years Bob Barker presided over "The Price is Right" on CBS or the 37 years Alex Trebek starred on "Jeopardy!" Sajak and White won a Daytime Emmy for outstanding game show host three times out of a total of 19 nominations.

Regis Philbin, on “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire,” was the loud, flashy host of a loud, flashy giveaway. And Pat Sajak, who announced on Monday that he would retire as the host of “Wheel of Fortune” after next season? Pat Sajak was … just there. There is nothing on Earth so still as the center of a spinning wheel. For over four decades, since taking over from Chuck Woolery, Sajak has been at that spot, joshing with Vanna White, heaving the wheel on final spins, wincing at Bankrupts and tethering exuberant winners.

"We’re thrilled to have him remaining close to the Wheel of Fortune family!” she said. "Wheel of Fortune" originally aired as an NBC network program on daytime television in 1975, with Chuck Woolery as host. While "The Price is Right" holds the record as the longest continuously running game show on American television, "Wheel of Fortune" has the longest unbroken run of any syndicated U.S. game show. Sajak left the NBC evening edition of "Wheel" when his own short-lived late-night talk show premiered on CBS. Meanwhile, Sajak was replaced on NBC's "Wheel" by Rolf Benirschke, who was in turn succeeded by Bob Goen when the network program moved to CBS, then briefly back to NBC.
