NEW YORK (AP) – Ryan Seacrest has noticed a pattern when he knocks on a stranger’s door.

“Most men answer the door without a shirt on,” he said in a recent interview.

The “American Idol” host picked up on this while preparing for his new game show, “Knock Knock Live,” premiering July 21 on Fox (9 p.m. EDT).

“I just went down a street the other night in Los Angeles and tested it,” Seacrest said. “It’s a little frightening when you walk up to doors because you hear animals and people are, ‘Who is it?'”

On his new show, answering a knock on the door could lead to a major surprise.
