People love Seacrest but he’s on every show, it seems. What I liked about Pat, Alex Trebec, Monty Hall, etal is they stayed with their shows as hosts long term. Seacrest goes from one show to another so he won’t be there long. I say 5 years max.

Ya think? I've seen Seacrest in bits and pieces over the years and I don't see how he'd have too much trouble. I'd say he pretty successfully replaced Dick Clark on New Year's Eve and he seems to be generally straight-laced.

He's more polished then Ken Jennings and seems to me like he'd allow the show to be about the game and not about him.

I barely watch live TV anymore, and haven't seen WoF in years. But on seeing the name, my first instinct was that it was a decent choice.
