However, that’s not to say Vanna isn’t excited to see Ryan’s spin at hosting Wheel of Fortune. As she noted, “He is a kind man. He is professional. He’s good at what he does. He likes to have fun.”
“He even said to me, ‘I’m not trying to replace Pat by any means. I just want to go in and do a good job,'” Vanna shared. “So, that’s what he’s going to do and I think he’s going to be just fine.”
And at the end of the day, all Vanna wants is for Wheel of Fortune to be remembered as “one of the best shows on TV.”
“I don’t mean that in an egotistical way,” she said, explaining how the show has continued to provide comfort at times of “craziness” in the world. “There’s so much drama everywhere. You turn on Wheel of Fortune and you get half hour of family fun.”
