Well, this was a decent start to Season 37. Our teachers took home $261,794 in cash and prizes, altogether, this week. Highlights from this week include the Bonus Round wins on Monday and Thursday, some impressive solves in the new Triple Toss-Up, and the Red, Yellow, and Blue podiums each getting at least one win to start off the season.
The Yellow podium takes the early lead with 3 wins in the Main Game, while the Red and Blue podiums each have one win.
Next week is Spa Getaway Week. From the looks of previous versions of Spa Getaway, this themed week never seems to do well. However, you never know what can happen on Wheel of Fortune, so we'll just have to wait and see how this themed week goes.
