In the summer of 2002, he began to find fame as the host of American Idol: The Search for a Superstar (2002), a Star Search (1983) clone in which contestants try their best at auditioning a song before going on stage and to find out, who's really, the American Idol. He hosted the first two seasons of the show and after finishing the popular series, Ryan serves in the same capacity for American Juniors (2003). As in Idol, he will interact with the talent and judges, in order to keep track of viewers through the weekly show that will make it a successful hit.- IMDb mini biography by: Gary Richard Collins II <hugsarealwaysinorder@yahoo.com>

- [on the death of Jennifer Hudson's mother, brother and nephew]: We're praying for her. I sent her an email to share my sorrow for what she went through and asked her if there was anything we could do.
- [on Dick Clark]: I saw him recently, and he was in a fantastic mood. I know he loves this show and loves being in Times Square. What's great about Dick is he doesn't need much of a plan.
- [on Paula Abdul]: The rumors? They're not true. She's part of our family. And we love her.
- [on the departure of Paula Abdul, who was one of the judges]: So the news that Paula Abdul is leaving "American Idol" stunned me last night. She's a dear friend, I love her to death, and it's really sad that it's come to fruition. I'm just bummed and I think if you were to talk to Randy or Simon they'd say the same thing. It's just sad. It bums us out.
- [on his romance with Teri Hatcher]: I think we can assume that we've been together. If I wanted to have my picture taken I would have gone to a popular celebrity restaurant. The Ivy, [the restaurant where he was photographed with Hatcher] was far out of town. That was a surprise to me.
