The 48-year-old’s reward is a job he can surely count on as long as he wants to do it. Seacrest, to be sure, is highly unlikely to muck that up. “Wheel of Fortune” is an empire Sony needs to protect: not just a television show, but video games, a casino game, a live show and an online merchandise store complete with a “Wheel” umbrella and silver tote bag. Unlike many game show hosts of yesteryear, he’s already a celebrity in his own right. Seacrest has experience as a disc jockey, a talk show host, a New Year’s Eve concertmaster and as the longtime host of “American Idol,” once television’s biggest sensation.
Merv Griffin, the legendary game show impresario, even offered him a job hosting a quiz game show for kids when Seacrest was only 23, Nedeff said. Survey says Watch Family Feud on Game Show Network Steve Harvey, Richard Karn, and John OHurley host this classic game show where families face off on Game Show Network. Oddly enough, Seacrest’s career path resembles some of the old-time hosts. This image released by CBS Media Ventures shows host Mayim Bialik during a taping of the game show “Jeopardy!”, that aired on July 5, 2022.
