Jeopardy! takes the lead in viewership, pushing Wheel of Fortune out of No. 1 spot
Wheel of Fortune’s viewership has dipped recently.
Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy! continue to vie for the No. 1 slot in the ratings war.
Both shows are popular among viewers, with some preferring a quiz show while others prefer to solve word puzzles.
After Ryan Seacrest took over the helm at Wheel of Fortune, viewership rose, surpassing his predecessor, Pat Sajak.
For a while last fall, Wheel of Fortune dominated viewers’ ratings—by more than one million in September 2024.
Wheel of Fortune’s premiere week, September 9 through 16, saw an estimated 8,310,000 viewers tune in, while Jeopardy! saw 7,113,000.
But even with the initial skyrocketing ratings, Wheel of Fortune is having trouble competing with Jeopardy! for viewership.
Jeopardy! leads in ratings
The U.S. Sun reports that Jeopardy! has taken over the top spot for syndicated programs, pushing its ABC rival into second place.
As The Sun states, Jeopardy! is currently the “preferred favorite” among viewers.
