After hosting Wheel of Fortune since 1981, Pat is gearing up to retire next month.
He’s already taped his last show, and it will air on June 7 as the show’s Season 41 finale.
Ryan, who currently hosts American Idol and also previously co-anchored the Live morning show with Kelly Ripa, is taking over for Pat.
He officially begins the gig when the series returns in September for Season 42.
Since the announcement, fans have had various concerns over the 49-year-old taking over.
Most recently, viewers are worried Ryan won’t make them laugh as much as Pat, 77, does.
FUNNIEST MOMENTS
This week, Wheel of Fortune shared a montage of the longtime host’s funniest one-liners.
“Pat’s got jokes — always has,” the show captioned the video on Instagram.
Fans loved reminiscing about some of the 77-year-old’s greatest moments before having to soon say goodbye to him as host.
“I love Pat’s sense of humor,” one Instagram follower wrote. “Pat is so funny and hilarious!”
“He might be a host of Wheel of Fortune but he’s also a comedian too,” the user added.
“Pat and his humor,” a second fan commented. “Gosh I’m going to miss him!!”
A third viewer warned Ryan that “he has big shoes to fill.”
After seeing how much everyone loved the video, Wheel of Fortune shared two more videos filled with Pat’s humorous moments.

PRAISING PAT
“Who’s having more fun in the sun than Pat and Vanna? Nobody,” the caption read.
Pat could be skipping, falling over, making sand art, and dancing in the fun-filled clip.
“Hahahaha!!! I will missed Pat so much next month,” one fan insisted.
“Maybe he will get bored and come back,” a second fan hoped of Pat, before demanding of the show, “Please get a new host who has a great sense of humor like Pat!”
