Ryan Seacrest has gotten comfortable with his new role as the host of Wheel of Fortune. Fans noticed that changes have been taking place. There are likely to be shakeups, especially for a 40-year-old game show. Seacrest suggested one thing that he would like to change.
Break Time
Seacrest hosts multiple gigs. He understands the value of his time and has learned how to maintain a work-life balance. When he’s not hosting WoF, he’s hosting American Idol or counting down the top hits on the American Top 40 radio show. That doesn’t include the cooking shows he sometimes hosts on social media.

In an interview with WPXI Channel, Seacrest and Vanna White discussed what happens behind the scenes with the game show. They tape six episodes per day. In between each game, they take a 15-minute break. Seacrest joked that he would prefer a “9” minute break.
More Of The Same
Despite what Wheel watchers think, White says the show feels like home. She hasn’t seen much change over the years. Sure, set changes have taken place. (See what WoF fans think of the bright new set.) But for White, she feels that most aspects haven’t changed. “People still love it. It’s a half hour of family fun that anyone of all ages can enjoy, and it makes the family come together,” White shared.
Seacrest offered another suggestion. He said he would like to see the viewers’ reactions and have them shared on the show. “I wish we had cameras placed at some people’s homes to hear what they scream at the TV when contestants don’t solve the puzzle like they’re solving the puzzle at home,” he explained.
What do you think about Seacrest wanting to change their breaks from 15 minutes to 9 minutes? Have you noticed any changes with the show? Let us know in the comments section.
