LOS ANGELES - One of television's longest-running game shows is getting a major facelift. Wheel of Fortune, which has been a weeknight staple since 1983, will be welcoming new hosts Ryan Seacrest and Cyndi Lauper to take over from the iconic duo of Pat Sajak and Vanna White.
The move comes as somewhat of a surprise, as Sajak, 77, and White, 66, have been the faces of the wildly popular word puzzle show for over four decades. However, sources close to the production indicate the pair decided to pass the torch to keep the show feeling fresh and contemporary.
