Dear Ryan Seacrest –

Imagine my surprise when I tuned into “Wheel of Fortune” and discovered you’re the new host!

Where the fuck is Pat Sajak? He could teach you a few things about show business! You have a nice smile and might have a future ahead in commercials.

You’re a cutie-pie; I wouldn’t mind a roll in the hay with you, that’s for damn sure. Next time you’re in Wichita, stop by Doris’ Donutssimplicity at its tastiest!

I’ll keep the light on.

Fondly, Doris Lipsmacker

      1. I haven’t had to cope wih any of the ads and having to mute the political commercials. There has to be a point at which more political commercials don’t matter and a point at whih more commercials are actually detrimental to the candidate. I wish they’d find those points and stop before they reach those points.

        1. Those political adverts are a real turn off! I find them beyond annoying and incredibly hypocritical. One commercial in favor of the amazing Joe Schmo will be followed by one blasting the same Joe Schmo as a rat bastard. I can’t wait till they’re all over!

  1. 🤣🤣🤣 Doris has high hopes! And cool that you found an appropriate song as well. Clever post all around! 😎

    While I don’t watch Wheel of Fortune, I enjoyed Pat Sajak’s short-lived late night talk show (1989-1990). And what can you say about Ryan Seacrest? He’s a good TV host whom I’ve enjoyed for years on American Idol.

    1. Thanks Debbie! I remember that song from my childhood and boy, do I feel old! 😂

      I don’t watch WoF but I have seen it and Pat Sajak was a great host. I remember his talk show, too. He’s a personable and funny guy. Ryan Seacrest is probably one of the better-known TV personalities in the US.

      Thanks so much for your comments!

      1. Thanks, Nancy! I am glad you’re having fun with them. It’s nice that everyone just does what they like. We get a nice variety that way.
        Looking forward to the next ones! 😊😊

    1. LOL!! I’m guessing you didn’t Google them so …. Ryan Seacrest is a TV personality, host, producer, entrepreneur and mega-millionaire. Pat Sajak recently retired as the host of the game show Wheel of Fortune after more than 40 years.

      Thanks so much, Clive 😊

  2. You seem to have all bases covered Doris … and don’t worry about asking me to be the ‘Wheel of Fortune’ host … I’m too busy being ‘Frankie’s’ secretary, and answering all his ‘fan mail’ for him … 🐶📘📧
