"Jeopardy!" champion James Holzhauer, known for his outspoken nature, recently weighed in on Ryan Seacrest's appointment as the new host of "Wheel of Fortune," drawing a humorous comparison to "Jeopardy!"'s own host selection journey.

Following the announcement of Seacrest taking the reins from Pat Sajak after the upcoming season, Holzhauer quipped on Twitter, suggesting "Wheel of Fortune" could have learned a thing or two from "Jeopardy!"'s experience.

He humorously recounted "Jeopardy!"'s path to finding a replacement for the late Alex Trebek, highlighting the "endless parade" of temporary hosts and the eventual, short-lived appointment of executive producer Mike Richards, before settling on the dual-host format with Ken Jennings and Mayim Bialik.

Holzhauer's playful jab, while lighthearted, resonated with fans who expressed mixed reactions to Seacrest's selection. Some voiced their preference for other candidates, including Vanna White and Maggie Sajak, while others lamented Seacrest's omnipresence in the media landscape.

Amidst the host transition, Vanna White's ongoing negotiations for a salary increase, after reportedly not receiving one in 18 years, add another layer of intrigue to the future of "Wheel of Fortune."
