Wheel of Fortune is a constant in many American households. If there’s one thing we can count on, it’s the big wheel and world puzzles around dinner time. Things have changed a bit recently with the exit of decades-long host Pat Sajak, but Ryan Seacrest made a seamless transition. He and Vanna White have become great friends, and everything is moving right along. According to Variety, Wheel of Fortune has a set change planned for Summer 2026 that will change the game. But don’t worry, it’s just temporary and is part of a much bigger celebration. Drink In America, presented by Coca-Cola, will be two weeks of themed episodes celebrating the United States.
