Ideal Changes for Season 29

I'm start thinking they need for a new PP. Like for dish-washer, car and etc instead of trip

Okay, I think I have another change for the season keep the set behind a curtain on opening day with all contestants coming on stage after the new announcer, (I'm not calling it yet even though you all are) Then the contestants will reveal the new set before introducing Pat and Vanna, this way the set is revealed carefully and the audience doesn't see the set before taping starts, it'd ruin the surprise, I understand that doesn't work with other gameshows but if wheel pulled it off with a puzzle board I think they can pull it off with the whole set, use a gold curtain with a string of lights

They just had a new set this season...I doubt they're going to build a new one so soon.

I believe cu was talking about the new generic Sony Studios set which debuted around last December.

But It wasn't that new was my point it's only those center screen extensions over those other neon ones that were used on jeopardy and wheel when they went to new york twice in the last decade, my new set is a total makeover not a cosmetic change here and there

You want to know a real good idea? I just remembered it while commenting at the art section. Here's what the idea is.

When they land on a prize or some sort of privilege such as the Wild Card, not only should they call a letter to pick the wedge or token up but when they do give them what's under there. I do not like the ideas of picking up the prize as soon as you land on it or landing on it, calling a letter to pick it up yet not get what's under there.

Now on Australia's version, although you were only awarded the amount spun when you get a letter in the puzzle (no multiplier rule unless you find the red letter that doubles the amount you spun), I liked the way obtaining their prizes worked.

They actually did that on the syndicated version from 1983 to 1990 where if you landed on a prize wedge, you would automatically pick up; however, you only got the money amount underneath the wedge if you called a correct letter.

I like the idea...though it seems as if it could be confusing to the general public. I think the ideal solution is just to get rid of it!

No one draws the analogy to the final year of Free Spin's existence?

The wild card could easily be presented that way (though even there they might have to shrink the prop a bit so that it fits in that placement), but full-wedge prizes don't lend themselves to a visual indication that they would work differently at all.

Even if getting $800 on bonusboost would go a way toward relieving that space's almost comical irrelevance.

[UPDATE] Here's a prize puzzle mechanic I've been toying with: Cash prize of $500 for every letter left unturned at the time of solve. If they still want product placement dollars from various travel agencies, maybe add something in the $2000 range on top of that--surely that price range hasn't fallen off the bottom of the market, has it?
