Seacrest, in. The season premiere of ABC’s “Celebrity Wheel of Fortune ,” which featured the arrival of new host Ryan Seacrest , attracted its largest audience in nearly two years, averaging 3.55 million viewers on Friday, Sept. 26.

That 3.55 million total viewers and 0.31 rating among adults 18-49 is according to Nielsen’s live+same day big data plus panel. It’s up 17% from last year’s season premiere (3.04 million), which repped the final season with Pat Sajak as host.

Seacrest took over for longtime host Pat Sajak (and joined co-host Vanna White ) on the syndicated “Wheel of Fortune” in September 2024, but ABC still had a season left of Sajak still spinning the primetime “Celebrity Wheel of Fortune” wheel, which is why Seacrest is only now taking over the ABC run as well.
