Longtime host Pat Sajak shared an emotional farewell message to his fans during his final episode in June

“Wheel of Fortune” fans are sharing their thoughts on the upcoming season, which will feature Ryan Seacrest stepping in for longtime host Pat Sajak. 

Earlier this week, the show’s official Instagram account shared a promo for the 42nd season, and longtime fans of the show seem to be having mixed reactions to the new host. 

In the promo, Seacrest tells co-host Vanna White, “I can’t wait to get to work.”

“Let’s get you ready for fall,” White responds, before coaching the host through various exercises to prep him for the upcoming season.  

“I’m sick of seeing Ryan Seacrest,” one follower commented on the post. “Surely, there must be someone else who can host.”

“Never liked Seacrest. After forty years I’m going to no longer be a Wheel watcher,” another person wrote. The social media user noted that Sajak’s daughter, Maggie, or “anybody but Seacrest” would be better.

However, others were quick to support the “American Idol” host.

“It was hard when Alex Trebek died and I didn’t know how JEOPARDY! would go on without him but Ken Jennings has been doing a good job,” one fan commented. “I didn’t know how THE PRICE IS RIGHT would be when Bob Barker retired but Drew Carey has done a good job. Point is we’ve seen others take over from legendary game show hosts and so I wanna see how Ryan does here cus really besides hosting just have fun and seeing how this isn’t the first time Ryan has hosted a Merv Griffin created game show he’s moved up to one of his most beloved ones.”

“You’re gonna be a good host Ryan,” another wrote. “I’ll be watching.”

“I can’t pretend I don’t understand why a lot of people are not happy about Ryan Seacrest becoming the new host of WOF. However, for me personally, I’m indifferent to him. I’m going to give him a chance,” another follower commented. “You got this Ryan, make Pat proud!”
